Hey gang. I'm trying to add geo switching to a figure, but when I activate it, it looks like its creating copies of the chest, and head groups.. any idea what would cause this error?

Were you trying to create a geometry-swapping head and chest, or is that a side effect?

Make certain your alternateGeom references are pointing to the proper OBJ files.

The code should look something like this:

   alternateGeom    Pendant_2<br></br>          {<br></br>           name Pendant_2<br></br>              objFile 1001 :Runtime:Geometries:Furrette2:Pendant02.obj<br></br>            }<br></br>   alternateGeom    Pendant_3<br></br>          {<br></br>           name Pendant_3<br></br>              objFile 1002 :Runtime:Geometries:Furrette2:Pendant03.obj<br></br>            }<br></br>   alternateGeom    Pendant_4<br></br>          {<br></br>           name Pendant_4<br></br>              objFile 1003 :Runtime:Geometries:Furrette2:Pendant04.obj<br></br>            }

Nope. I was geo switching the hip, thighs, legs and feet. The geo file is switching to the proper obj file, but it almost looks like "ghost" obj objects are appearing.

err you added the switching code wrong? :)

If you like I can look at the CR2

I might take you up on that, Phil. Let me root around on it a little more first, and see if I can figure it out on my own. I added the code with easypose underground, and it's usually pretty reliable about things like this...

Figured it out.. I had saved the new hip section out with more geometry then th ehip group. Guess 3:30 am projects aren't always a good idea?? ;)

Well, this one started at 8:am that day.. it was an all day thing, with breaks for dinner, and a movie with the wife. I couldn't sleep, so hit the keyboard again.
