Hello,

I converted lots of hairstyles to fit my favorite figures and I'd like to share them BUT I can't find the way to make them into pose files. What I do is to save the hairstyle back to the library but if I wanted to distribute them as they are I'd have to encode each of them with RTE Encoder... quite a job!

I use Poser 6. I tried saving the pose with morph channels but it doesn't work at all.

Is there an easy way to do that?

Thanks!

There may be other ways, but this worked for me (not for hair, but the same principle).

Thanks but it's not the same thing for hair. ;o(

If you are talking about .obj hairs then Injection Pose Builder is your friend.

No, most of them don't use objects. ;o(

Should still work on prop hair though because it will save the x,y and z translations that you need for the fit.  A bit of work but slightly less than RTE encoding everything (I still can't stuff to reliably decode with that either - I must pay more attention to what I am doing!)

OK I'll try that then, thank you!

No. She is talking about files such as these where someone has taken the time to do the resizing of the hair etc and then created a distributable .pz2 injection pose file for the hair so that a single click will auto resize the hair for the user.

Yes, you're right Acadia. And I just tried Injection Pose Builder but it doesn't support hr2 files. ;o(

Why don't you send the person who made the ones listed by Acadia a PM and ask them if they will tell you how they did it?

Just an idea!

I did that at DAZ and the person uses DS but I didn't think of doing it here so now I just did. Thanks!

Your welcome!!
Happy posing and converting lol

Thanks. Well the converting is all done actually. It's the method of distribution that causes me problems! lolll

When you find out can you post how to do it here so that anyone looking for the information can get it?

Plus3d just replied to my pm and she said you have to use cr2 editor to make these pose files. I'll study one of hers and then try it on my own. ;o)

You can make a P6 injection. Very easy to do. No messy RTE. P6 will inject the morph and a channel. Tutorial here: http://www.nerd3d.com/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=13 This is what I was thinking of doing for my M3 hair fits, I morphed the hair to fit M3 better, rather than reposition it. The only trouble with P6 INJ is that it only works with P6 and P7. I don't think this method will work with cr2 hair styles either, not without injecting new JPS and Centers. It would be easier to just have a new cr2, imho bB

Thanks BastBlack but I need these poses to work in DS too. ;o(

I tried with cr2 editor and so far no luck.

Bummer. ;( I am interested in a solution too.

Someone told me it could be done in DAZ Studio with some scripts that can be found at DAZ Studio Freepository. I might have a look at that solution sometime this week.
