Hi everybody !
I'm looking for a script that add new channels into several bodyparts of a figure that doesn't have any " free" channels . I would like to use those channels to inject a custom morph , and I'd like to be able to distribute them .
( I'm working on AS Little Dyvil dress , and some cr2 hairs too )
Thank you for your help .

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

Is there a way to add LOTS of blank channels to a cr2?? A gal is working on getting the Zygote Centaur up to speed by creating LOTS of morphs for him, face and body and needs a way to get as many as she needs with no limitations. She really needs help. I'm a part of the team that's working on this project so I thought I'd do a bit of research or ask around. I searched and found this thread. Seems easy for some but it's a complete mystery to many!!
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
All the best

Here you go.You've got two possibilities here.
"CreateMultipleParametersEmbedded.py" has the names of the parameters in a list in the source file. You can easily edit the source file and replace/add names as much as you want.
Or you can use "CreateMultipleParameters.py" that loads them from a text file. Not meant for end users, but could be handy for developers. A sample text file is provided in the zip.

Did some rethinking on the purpose of the script, and came up with something better: a script that creates a script. Sounds complicated, but it's not.Heres how it works:

A channel will be created as a morph is loaded to the figure . I dont know what the restriction would be on distributing a new cr2 ?

No problem at all. The new cr2 can contain just a readScript statement that reads in the existing cr2, and have the additional channels (problem is that the existing cr2 must be at a fixed location),
or the script can be invoked using a pose file to add the channels to the "old" cr2 the user already has to have in his/her posession.
The second option is probably better, since it doesn't require the original cr2 to sit in a certain predefined folder.

Svdl, I'm that girl that asked for the script. Thank you very much, it is working very nicely and a huge timesaver!

These scripts don't work correctly for me in P6. With the "createMultipleChannels.py" I get the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "
AttributeError: CreateFullBodyMorp
And with the "createMultipleChannelsEmbedded.py", I get the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "
AttributeError: CreateFullBodyMorp
With the script generated by "createChannelScript.py", I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "
AttributeError: CreateFullBodyMorp
All scripts make one targetGeom channel in each actor, but no valueParm in the BODY.
[edit]
P.S. I just noticed the error says "Morp" not "Morph", don't know if that is significant.

The CreateFullBodyMorph is P7 only.

Don't think so.

SVDL- Cannot seem to download from your site, will you let me know when it is back up? Would really like the script! thanks. -WTB

SVDL, any chance of getting the two scripts for multiple channels ?
or anyone who has them could send me a copy ?
thanks

Can I necromance this thread?
I need exactly this...
a way to add channels to a figure that doesn't have empty channels so I can distribute morphs I have made to others.
I tried the .pmd inj method and it works ok, but I am really wanting to make this available to the whole Poser/Daz community, so I am really struggling to understand all of this stuff.
I have found tut's to tell me what to do after I get the blank channels in there, but although, I did get the script (above) to work, I had no idea what to do with it.
Can someone help me understand?
Thanks,
Jasmine Skunk
