Hi all,
I am a totally newbie and am desperately seeking some help. I recently got the Vict 4 ++morph package and am able to see all the morphs listed under Victoria 4.2 in my Poser 7, but I have no idea how to get them to work. Do I click on the morphs I want to use, and then click on the concerned body part and move sliders? If this is the case, the specific morphs do not show up when I activate the parameter slider thingy... help!
Thanks!

Are you asking how to load them, or how to control them after loading? To load them, you first load V4 from the Figures library, and then select the V4 figure, and load whatever morph from the Pose library (if you're new you can just load all of them until you learn which ones do what).
Normally you should control almost all those morphs from the Body, although you can control a lot of them from specific body parts (e.g. the chest has many of them). A very few are controlled ONLY on specific body parts, e.g. toe bends.

Hi,
Thanks for your advice. I did load Victoria, and then went down the list of morphs and double clicked the ones I wanted to use. I was wanting to make changes to the face, but when I click on the face I get the default set of expressions, but nothing in the morphs ++ package. Am a bit confused. For, example, to make a nose larger or smaller, or the eyes larger or smaller, there is nothing. The list is: "mouth side to side", "lips pucker", "mouth smile", etc. I believe those are part of the standard facial expression morphs that came with Vic, but not part of the larger ++ package.
Thanks!

Did you run the "Update V4" utility after you installed the morphs?

Oh, hadn't thought about that. Will do now!

Hmm, still doesn't work. Just don't get it. Theoretically, if I want to use the "enlarge nose" morph, for example, I would click on it, then click on the head of the figure, scroll down the list of morphs, and there would be an option for a slider in the Parameters Dial?
TY again

Yes it should be there. If it's not showing up when loading then you ought to go ahead and phone DAZ support and get them to walk you through it, people commonly have problems like this due to their vague instructions and generally not-foolproof installers. I'm sure by now they have a thorough flowchart to walk you through it :)

Thanks! I'll give it a try!
