How to post a .cr2 without basically giving Vicky away for free? Apparently, the character I posted last night included all of Vicky in it (I pulled it already) according to another user who IM'ed me late last night about it. I just want the character morphs available, not the whole package. I thought that the .cr2 would be worthless without the associated .obj file in /.../Geometries, so I didn't think anything of posting the .cr2 file for the character. Am I right in this, or what exactly can I put into a character download without getting slammed for violating DAZ copyright? /P

You can distribute a .cr2 for a Vicky 1 character. The .cr2 of Vicky 2 is different, because V2 is actually a Vicky 1 with more morphs in the .cr2. Your download dosen't have a whole Vicky inside, but everyone with a Vicky 1 got the update with the morphs for V2.DAZ has a FAQ for distribution of V2 characters.

The best way to distribute V2 and M2 characters seems to be a MAT/MOR pose file... it's possible to include custom morphs in the pose file... at least, that's how it seems to me...

Exactly. And you can then open the pose file with a text editor, and remove the actual "Xrot" etc pose location, leaving only the morphs... then add in a channel for the Body and any FBM's, and then copy the material info from the CR2 and append it to the end for MAT info... should work. There's a thread deeper in about including geometry information for custom morphs in a MAT/MOR Pose file.

I fixed it... didn't realize that V2 .cr2 files were verboten - heh. The fixed V1 .cr2 is posted in Free Stuff now. /P
