Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 23 7:38 pm)
btw - heres a little tip when working with MOR, MAT or fc2 files: open up the file with a text editor like notepad. at the very beginning of the file, and sometimes (not always) at the very end as well, you will find a version number. change this to: version { number 4.01 sometimes youll have version 4.03, or even higher for propack, poser5, etc. setting this down to 4.01 makes sure that no matter what release of poser they are using they wont get the annoying 'version mismatch' error when loading the morph. it only takes a few minutes to go through your files and do, and it makes them look a lot more professional. just change the 4.03 to a 4.01 or whatever, no need to change anything but that one number.
I felt the need to post this information because it comes in handy in certain circumstances.. let me apologize now for the small rant at the end of this post. ;) To export a head Morph Target in OBJ format using only Poser, here's the skinny: Create your Vickie face using morph dials and magnets. Click [File] [Export] [Wavefront OBJ..]. Choose Single Frame, and then select only Vickie's Head. Give the file a name and click [Save]. Now select ONLY the "Include figure names in polygon groups" and "As Morph Target" options and click [Ok]. NOW for the important part! Open the newly created OBJ file in a text editor (ignore the MTL file). Delete every line that doesn't begin with "v" (that to say, delete all the "vt", "vn" and "f" lines. "#" lines are ok, they're just comments). Now save the file and it's ready to use on both Vickie 1 & 2. Deleting these lines accomplishes two important things: One, it greatly reduces the file size, which is always appreciated by downloaders. :) And Two, it takes care of any copyright issues that might arise. When you export the OBJ file, it carries the entire geometry of Vickie's head with it, but deleting the above lines reduces it to only the difference between the old head and your new head. A tester at the Marketplace caught this and gave me this solution. I recently forgot how to do this and popped into the chat room to ask if anyone knew off hand. I was greeted with complete rudeness from a non-Poser user who apparently has no regard for copyright, no respect for Poser users and no use for the Marketplace. There were others who offered helpful alternatives, and to them I apologize, but unfortunately everything broke down into a heated debate over a simple misunderstanding. Fortunately I found the solution in an old e-mail. (this is the rant I apologized for earlier) :) Hope this info helps someone! -=jfs=-

Well, I would like to put my Shanti face morph in freestuff. Is it enough if I put the fc2 and rsr file in the zipfile? Will people be able to use it with their V2 then? Thanks, Rynn.
