Hi everyone,
(The following is a copy of a question I put to the Poser New User forum yesterday. I mean no offence asking here also but I'm hoping the question might get more views)
I'm still pretty much a novice with Poser but like the program very much and have just bought Pro 2014.
Because I also use Carrara, I'm trying to get the best from both by building up some content for the V4 /M4 figures which I haven't really used much. I have V4 and the morphs ++. I bought S4 elite and have just bought MRL Melissa SU (https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/mrl-melissa-su/86966).
I've been loading V4 and then the Melissa body INJ (from the pose library). The head becomes hugely out of proportion. But when I inject the Melissa Head morph, only the face changes. I've tried this with and without the S4 Elite morphs and the V4 ++ morphs but can't find a way to reduce the size of the giant head.
Do I need to buy something else? I noticed that there is a V4 elite package but hope I wont need to buy it. (Although, if it is something that gets incorporated into lots of other characters then I'd be willing to.)
Thanks for any advice.

It's OK now.
I searched through the Morphs ++ in the Pose library and double-clicked on 'Head Size'. The morph dial then appeared in the Parameters window.
I'm still a bit puzzled as to why that dial didn't appear after I had loaded Morphs ++.
I'll update the other thread for beginners.

I posted a response in the other thread.

I had this happen to me as well. The solution was to reinitialize V4. There should be a batch file that you run once and then forget about it. Still, it seems you have your solution.

That was my assessment also which was posted at the other thread. Reinitialize to correct the problem because it will crop up again unexpectedly. Go to Runtime>Libraries>iDAZ, and double-click DZCreateExPFiles-V4.bat. This should take of the issue. And this must be done every time a new DAZ morph package is installed.

Thanks so much, quietrob & hborre.
The solution you've both explained would never have been one I'd have discovered for myself.
Best regards.
