Hi all . With the latest craze in using pose files to set materials , textures , and characters I decided to create my own for a character of mine using Victoria 2 . I wanted it to apply the morphs for the character without moving any of the body parts or affecting the pose in any way . What I did was open the pose up and remove every section for rotation and translation for every part . It works great , I can pose the figure with any pose and then apply the body style without it moving anything other than what it's supposed to . With the success with this I made a copy of the pose to experiment with . I wanted to see if I could make a pose file read a full body morph . Poser doesn't save full body morph information to pose files ( at least mine doesn't anyway) so I thought maybe I could add it on my own so I used the copy and deleted the information for every body part except for the hip and renamed it BODY and left the information for the barbarian morph in , set it to 1 and deleted all the other morph information . I didn't really think it would work but I was surprised , It works just fine . I'm going to play with it some more and try to put together a pose file for all of Victoria 2's full body morphs .
