Hello all, I've been busy writing a little script that may assist in character creation.

When you use a Millenium 3 figure (Michael 3, Victoria 3, David, Steph Petite) with a lot of injected morphs, the figure will claim a lot of memory since all the morph deltas of all the injected morphs are loaded. This script will consolidate all those morphs into a single morph and write an INJ/REM pose combo to disk.
The new INJ/REM pose will use only one morph channel, reducing memory usage drastically. For example, the Kaleigh character by TamelaJ will occupy over 20 MB when saved to disk as a CR2. When this script is applied to a "Kaleigh" figure, and the resulting INJ pose is applied to an unmorphed V3, the resulting CR2 will be less than 6 MB.

The script uses P6 dialogs, no Tkinter. So it should work on Macs too.

I'd love to get some feedback on how to improve the script.
And if somebody has found out how to create textboxes in P6, I'd love to know!

The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
