Genesis Face Morphs - Are They Missing?

laststand6522732

I've tried most of the G/G2 face morphs, and I still haven't found a complete offering, such as I have with M4. As an example, we seem to be light on brow morphs. I've not found:

left inner up/down
right inner up/down
left outer up/down
right outer up/down
inner brow up/down
outer brow up/down

I have a hunch others are missing, too.

Genesis 2 Male(s) Expressions by aniMate uses a full range of facial morphs, but unfortunately, I can't access them in the Shaping pane.

Am I doing this wrong? Are they right in front of me, and I don't know it?

Thanks.

Have you looked in the Parameters tab under Actor/Face, that's where I have several.

Yes, those are the same as what I have in Shaping.

I wonder if there is a way to extract morphs from an aniblock.

Usually I need to use "head poze controller" to make many expression.

I did not know clear about M4, but you know morph forms well.

DAZ categorize morphs for expression as " poze" , then they make controller
which change hidden head morph.

Select genesis head, (not root) then go to parameter tab, or poze tab,
you may find poze controll section.

As you said Left inner up etc about Brows , you may find all.
(but sorry I do not remember,, it is packaged with genesis , or, you need to buy
genesis head and body morph bundle,,)

(it is same about genesis2, but about genesis2, we can access head poze controller
without select head. (DAZ change way to find them easy) but you need to serch poze controlelr
in parameter tab, or poze tab. not shape tab

Then about both case,, DAZ designed genesis to use poze controller to make expression.(animation)
do not hope user serch and tweak hidden head shape morphs.

some user who check on "show hidden morph"s may use these hidden morph ,without poze controller.
but we may need not.. because it should be changed by poze controller,
not recommend directly tweak these hidden morph. (we can do, but those hidden morph can not
return when we use zero poze ,zero shape,, and we often forget which hidden morph are used,,)

Beautiful. I found them listed under Posing. This is just what I was after.

Where is that "Show Hidden Morphs" switch?

This is why I like this forum.

Thanks!

Ah did you find ? OK :-)

then,, the hidden morph ,, I just said because I often tweak them without intention,
it cause trouble often ^^;

but you can check them,, in parameter tab option menu, check on "show hidden properties"
It seems good to see real morphs which poze controller using.

1. select genesis.(not genesis2,, daz change often their way ^^; do not clear tell us,, what changed)
2. in parameter tab, option menu "show hidden properties"
3 in poze controller section, now you find new poze controller for "head"
these prameter is actually hidden PHMs,, you can change value,, and it work as same as poze controller,,
but if you check parameter setting , and see the parameter name, these morphs are named as PHM
and these are different,, when you select genesis head, you find in poze controller,, these name are ctrl (usually)

then,, you should not use these hidden morphs,, I hope so ^^; (just check it,, how it work,,)

OK, now I can get my screen to look like yours. Thanks for walking me through this. I thought all the shapes were in Shaping! :-)
