Faceshop 8 and Victoria 4.2 Problem

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

I am using Faceshop 8 and Victoria 4.2 to generate characters because I like the results that I'm getting a lot better than the ones I'm getting from FaceGen (I have the latest version of Facegen Pro).  After I have created a character that I really like I save it as a scene file and triax weight the figure so that I can save it as a character as well. I load either the scene or character and work on it 

The problem is that when I close that scene or delete the character and then open a scene with a ddifferent V4 character in it, it reverts to the previous character or some kind of combined morph monstrosity. The original figure or sccene is destroyed even though I have not hit the save button. The only work around I've come up with is to leave the aptly named DIM running, uninstall the Postgre CMS (Win 64) and then reinstall it before I change the character or scene.

This is not a big deal, just really inconvenient. Why is this happening? Is the C++ code being altered?   As I have said, I have a work around but if anyone has a better solution I would sure like to hear it.          

I'm running on a new Dell laptop and a new Dell Desktop so the computers are not the problem. Perhaps I've caught DIM from Daz. Actually I love the program especially the fact that you can make just about anything fit anything else. Just get frustrated sometimes.

    You could use the ExP exporter to export your new morphs in a form that can be loaded with or injected into the regular version of the Victoria 4 figure - I'm not altogether surprised that you current route is giving trouble, though I think your solution is a trifle sledgehammer-to-crack-a-nut.

    i am going to try your method. Didn't know that it existed until you posted your comment. I'm relatively new at Daz and I really appreciate the help.
