Hi ,in the past I only used a basic uninjected/Default DAZ V4 for my animated pose file product testing.

I recently began using  a full V4 (with morphs++)
in some animation projects.
I have noticed that the old trick of resaving V4 back to the library with IK turned off does not seem to work.

the figure reloads with IK turned back on as though it is somehow hard coded into the V4 base CR2.

Not a show stopper as I can simply tick it off before starting to manually create keyframe animation involving the hands& feet.

but has anyone here experienced this??
(poser 6 OSX Daz V4.2)

Thanks

As far as I know Poser turns any IK chains in the legs with the correct names on automatically, and V4 has those names. You could try hacking the CR2 to rename the IK chains, I think, or you can turn IK off on loading.

It looks like there's a listing in the poser.ini which controls whether Poser loads figures from the library with leg IK on.

FIG_LIB_FORCE_LEG_IK_ON 0

Mine has been set to zero for the past few Poser versions, and I haven't had any figures loading with IK on during that time.  Note that I've only ever used V4 during the relatively short period of V4~WM development, however.  :unsure:

Thank you both!!

My poser natives load with IK on. My V4 and M4 load with IK off. I've never had to save them back to the library for that to work.

FWIW: on my system:

Poser 8 V4 loads with IK on

PP2012, PP2014 loads with IK off

all the same cr2, so I assume that Poser changed something between poser 8 and poser 9

It could well have changed - I was remembering from way back.

Just a note: Running Poser Pro 2012 and using CR2 created in earlier versions that somehow forced IK=on saves, I've had to manually edit the CR2 in order to force the IK to be turned off. This didn't happen in all such instances. But, it was annoying enough for some for me to be forced to manually edit the CR2 as PP2012 would not, despite being selected to do so, save without IK=on for a few Cr2s.
