I did restart DS and its a new scene where I add the genesis 3 base female, favorite the morph and run the script.
What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?
Although a definitive answer would of course require further measurements, published species-wide averages of wing length and body mass, initial Strouhal estimates based on those averages and cross-species comparisons, the Lund wind tunnel study of birds flying at a range of speeds, and revised Strouhal numbers based on that study all lead me to estimate that the average cruising airspeed velocity of an unladen European Swallow is roughly 11 meters per second, or 24 miles an hour.
What is the capital of Assyria?
The four capitals of Assyria were Ashur (or Qalat Sherqat), Calah (or Nimrud), the short-lived Dur Sharrukin (or Khorsabad), and Nineveh. The ruins of all four ancient cities fall within the modern state of Iraq.
Thanks.
That settled it. I was able to locate the issue to a for loop that isn't supposed to be there, at all. It's changing the output variable one step too early. Will post up tomorrow. Haven't slept.
Fixed. The corrected script is up
Its working now on my PC. I have never been so happy to see DS stop responding. Thank you for releasing this.
The only issue I noticed is with the nails as you mentioned for extremer morphs. Strangley the nails on the right foot did work while the left and hand nails have small issues with strong nail influencing morphs but it shouldn't be a problem to fix those manually. Great work, thank you.
Probably not so strange. I did that all manually. The results should be pretty much mirrored, one to one across the mesh, but that was few hundred verticies, so of plenty of room for minor error. I haven't noticed anything in particular, but as I said, the script isn't really meant to do those, owing to the issue of the nails being so different.
It's also possible that somone using zbursh to make a nail morph moved nail bed verts. This would transfer as a morph in the G8's nails because they follow G3's nail bed in the script but would not be visible on G3 (nailbeds being covered by nails). Not sure if I'll ever revisit that. It's not that it is impossible to get G8 to follow G3's nails, just that it would be extremely tedious to do. It was tedious getting the nail bed assignments. I believe trying for the nails would be 5 times as much work, minimum. G8's nails are modifications of the nailbed area on G3. So it's pretty straight foward to make one-to-one and one-to-many assigments between nails and nailbeds. G3's nails are not just separate meshes, but basically unrelated shapes. So, where I could use mesh tools to rapidly assign obvious matches, and handle the less obvious in groups of 4 to 7 manually by using the nail bed, with the nails I'd have to go through each vertex, one at time, by hand.
Maybe, one day, but not soon.
Ok. For the left foot it seems to be only one vertex at the nail of the big toe which isn't moving with the morph. The hand looks like it will be more work to fix but if you wan't to look at the foot at one point in the future maybe this helps a bit to narrow down the location:
It's only with extreme morphs so if you don't fix it it's not a big issue as for most morphs it won't be noticable.
Not really. Wireshaded would be more useful for that. Otherwise, there isn't a lot of context about the location.
Unfortunately, this isn't something you easily fix with a ballpark. You have to be able to find exactly the vertex.
I was wrong its actually a group of vertices. There is one extreme but closer to the nail bet there are some more with smaller offsets. So never mind what I wrote. But the script works great for the majority of the morphs. Thanks again.
Will this script also work for the new Genesis 8 male?
I'm working on a version of Redz transfer setup for Genesis 8 Female just in case the script won't work on Genesis 8 Male
Well then.... Thanks, I had no idea lol.
Almost got there until the Transfer Utility got hung up at 16% conversion. Right now waiting it out to see if it ever finishes. Hopefully it will. Otherwise I am open to suggestions.
Ok. Figured out what I was doing wrong and managed to get it to work. Thanks Redz for your awesome tutorial!
Sadly I don't think so. I have spent a few hours substituting g3f for g3m and g8f for g8m following Redz's instructions which gave success with g8f but is only partially working for me with g8m. I am getting distortions with the tips of fingers on g8m which seem to be associated with hip morphs/movement, and I don't know enough about bones/vertices etc to understand what's happening. Hopefully Redz, as knight in shining armour, will come to our rescue again.
I'm not getting it....
I downloaded the script and copied it to "Scripts" in my Daz3D library. But, I'm not seeing it showing up anywhere. I did try to run it using the "Script Ide." But, nothing happened. What am I missing?
I't's been brought to may attention that my test script (One of many) and release script have significant difference at this time. This will cause the script to fail about 40-45% of the time. I've mostly fixed it, and will have it up in a few minutes of this comment. Most of the time, this doesn't come up, but in this case, tracking down another issue meant I needed to use smaller, more limited versions of the script to see exactly where the problem was coming from. In transfering the fix back to main script, I left a decision loop in that should have been removed, and moved a second loop to the wrong place. The second loop doesn't break the script, it just means work done to no purpose, sometimes. The first should make the script fail half the time, but seems to work when it shouldn't. I don't know why that is.
Now, to the Question of the day.
Nope. The script will not work with g8M. It isn't meant to.
G8F/M have different Vertex order. This is important. G3F/M also have different Vertex order. Again, important. Finally, G3F and G8F also have different Vertex order. The script very literally takes G3F's vertex order and translates it to G8F's.
To make a working transfer between G3M and G8M you need to create a new translation between those two figures.
Lastly, I am the script's author (I stood on the shoulders of mork, and some Daz samples. Perhaps not giants, but pretty tall). I am not Redz. In fact, I am Blues.
Thanks for the prompt reply. In that case, will you be making a script for G3M to G8M?
The update worked...Thanks!
Wow, Blues. Just tried your script and it works like a charm. Thank you so, so much for sharing it. Really appreciate it. :)
Yes, but I can promise no eta.
I had hoped there might some means of cutting down on the grunt work when G8M was released. There isn't. At present, I am modeling the necessary morphs to allow Studio to create the translation matrix. (Mapping, really, but matix looks cooler.) I have 2 or 3000 verts left to do, most of the tricky ones, though I've left the eyes for last. Because they are dead easy, and I found doing the really hard ones dead last killed my motivation, last time. After that, I'll have to write the matrix. If things go like G3F, that's going to be something like 23,400 instructions, give or take. Mind, I don't literally write all of them. There's a lot of spreadsheet involved. But it will take some time.
The core functions of the script should just work, I think they're all generic. So once the new main loop is ready, I should not have to rewrite those functions.
Probably couple of days. I could do it faster, but I actually have to do work that pays, so I can eat. Priorities.
Sorry 3DRT,
Having read Singular Blues previous post, I now realise that my answer to you was flawed because I have been using Redz G3F to G8F morph, and thought your question related to that, but now see subsequent posts are relating to Singular Blues updated morph. Hopefully, we will see a G8 male version.
Kindest regards, and sorry for the confusion.
Understood. Take as much time as you need and thank you for this great tool!
I was going to post I'd found a morph it didn't work on, but your update fixed it.
I have been working to find a solution to transferring morphs from Genesis 3 Male to Genesis 8 Male and have successfully done so. Here is the method I used. It didn't blow up my computer or wreck my characters,
so here it is, for you to try at your own risk 
I will post some renders later, as I have tried this method to transfer face morphs, and extreme size morphs and it works perfectly for me with no distortions.
Enjoy.
Step 1
Load Genesis 8 male into scene (with NO eyelashes) and select.
Go into PARAMETERS TAB and change the characters resolution level to ‘base’.
Change SUBDIVISION LEVEL to 0
We are now going to put Genesis 8 male into the ‘T’ pose.
Select LEFT SHOULDER BEND in PARAMETERS TAB and BEND to 46.5 Select RIGHT SHOULDER BEND and BEND to (minus)-46.5 Select LEFT THIGH BEND, SIDE TO SIDE and adjust to (minus) -6 Select RIGHT THIGH BEND, SIDE TO SIDE and adjust to 6
Your G8M should now be in a ‘T’ pose with arms horizontal and legs nearly together.
We are now going to export this character.
Go to FILE - EXPORT - and save as G8M CLONE to your computer desktop as a Wavefront obj.
The Obj EXPORT OPTIONS box will open.
Top menu will say Convert from Daz Studio To: CUSTOM. Uncheck WRITE GROUPS then click ACCEPT.
Now delete Genesis 8 male from the scene.
Go to FILE - IMPORT - and import your ‘G8M CLONE’ from your desktop. An Obj. IMPORT OPTIONS box will appear.
Make sure it says FROM : DAZ STUDIO (1 unit = 1 cm) click ACCEPT.
Step 2
Load GENESIS 3 Male into the scene.
We now need to pose him into the ‘A’ pose by selecting in the PARAMETERS TAB:
LEFT SHOULDER BEND (minus) -46.5 RIGHT SHOULDER BEND 46.5 LEFT THIGH BEND, SIDE TO SIDE 6 RIGHT THIGH BEND, SIDE TO SIDE (minus) -6
Step 3
You should now have in your scene your G8M CLONE figure in a ‘T’ pose and your GENESIS 3 male figure in an ‘A’ pose.
Select SCENE TAB and go to the top icon that has 4 lines with a black arrow pointing to the top line.
CLICK and select from the menu ASSETS - TRANSFER UTILITY. The TRANSFER UTILITY box will open.
Make the SOURCE scene item from the drop down menu GENESIS 3 Male make the TARGET scene item your G8M CLONE figure. DO NOT alter any other settings. Click ACCEPT.
If you have been successful your GENESIS 3 male and G8M CLONE figure should now be together in the ‘A’ pose.
Go to the SCENE TAB and select GENESIS 3 male and CLICK on the lefthand side EYE icon to make him invisible in the scene.
Step 4
Go to FILE - SAVE AS SCENE, and give the scene a name. You can then recall this scene in the future to save going through the previous 3 steps.
Step 5
We will now create a morph.
Go to the SCENE TAB and SELECT the (hidden) GENESIS 3 Male and dial in your chosen GENESIS 3 Male character/shape/pose morph. Make sure your GENESIS 3 Male is still invisible in your scene. You should now see your Genesis 8 character become the shape of your dialed in morph.
Now go to : FILE - EXPORT - and save as WAVEFRONT OBJ. to your computer desktop, and give it a name, then SAVE.
The Obj EXPORT BOX will open showing ‘CUSTOM’ as before. Click ACCEPT.
This will now be your saved G3M morph for G8M.
We have now finished with this scene, so close it and open a new empty scene.
Step 6
Load in Genesis 8 Male.
Select him, and go to EDIT - OBJECT - MORPH LOADER PRO. Make sure ‘Convert to Daz Studio says from DAZ Studio (1 unit = 1cm ) Click on CHOOSE MORPH FILES and select your saved morph obj. file that you created in Step 5. Click ACCEPT.
You should now find in the PARAMETERS TAB (with your G8 male selected) under MORPHS your new GENESIS 3 Male morph dial.
Dial in your morph and you should see your GENESIS 8 Male character change to your new GENESIS 3 Male shape/morph.
Step 7
Before you can start posing your character you will need to adjust the RIGGING.
Select your GENESIS 8 Male character and go to the SCENE TAB and again select the icon with four lines and a black arrow icon. Choose EDIT - RIGGING - ADJUST RIGGING TO SHAPE. The ADJUST RIGGING TO SHAPE box will open.
Make sure ADJUST CENTRE POINTS and ADJUST END POINTS are ‘tick’ selected.
(ADJUST ORIENTATION should be unchecked)
Click ACCEPT.
Your GENESIS 8 Male character can now be posed with his own G8 Male poses without any distortion.
NOTE.
It is possible to save the various morphs you create within Daz Studio for permanent recall.
I do not know the process for this, so have omitted this process.
I am sure other forum users will have the knowledge to reliably guide you.
This works and its written in a clear and easy to follow way. Thank you for sharing. I did Lee7 as a trial.
This is Lee 7 morphed to Genesis 8 base male. Lee 7's iray skin is used and Lee 6's Peng hair.
You can permanently save morphs by going to File > Save As > Support Asset > Morph Asset(s)
good job. thanks
I had to close Studio in the Open a New Scene step, but once I did that, it worked like a dream. Thanks for the tutorial:)
