Resetting Genesis default shape

I accidentally saved over Genesis' default shape, and now every time I load it, it loads with 3D Universe's Jasmin character dialed in. Could someone remind me how to restore it to the neutral default shape, please?

    You could either a) right click parameters tab > zero figure shape, or b) reinstall Genesis

    The first one depends on if Jasmin's dial shows up in currently used. If it doesn't, you'll have to go with B.

    Hi, WheelMan,

    Can you explain what you mean by you saved over the shape? What did you save it as? Did you save as a preset of some sort?

    The presets shouldn't save over your data files, so you should be able to select the figure, have the Shaping tab open and in the options (the little arrow with the lines to the left top of the tabs pane, you should see Zero Figure>Shape and that should remove all shaping and give you the base shape.

    I thought I had solved this, but the problem persists, so I'm back.

    I purchased the Jason/Jasmin bundle and converted it to work in Poser. It had been a while since I'd done a conversion, so I had to remember all of the steps. When I saved the duf files for the Jasmin character, I accidentally saved it as a Support Asset, Figure/Prop, and since then, whenever I load Genesis, it loads with Jasmin already dialed in. It even loads in Poser that way.

    Now I can't figure out how to fix it.

    Something you did altered Jasmin's file so the default value is no longer zero. Here's the fix:

    Locate the offending morph file (I think it should be My Library/data/DAZ 3D/Genesis/Base/Morphs/3D Universe/FBMJasmin.dsf)
    Open it in a text editor.
    (If it’s gibberish, rename it to .zip, unzip it, rename the resulting file to .dsf, and open that one.)
    Find the line that says “value” : 1, (or possibly some other nonzero value)
    Change the 1 to a 0. Make sure you don’t do anything to the space before the number, or the comma after it.
    Save.

    What the operation i do is just the same as yours . I find the menu help-troubleshooting-view log and find
    Loading Startup Scene : D:/myfile/DAZ 3D/Studio/My Library/People/Genesis/Genesis.duf
    Loaded file: Genesis.duf
    Loaded Morph Deltas in 0 min 0.0 sec.
    Loaded file: 2ndTurtle9.dsf
    so i right click and set zero figure and save as D:/myfile/DAZ 3D/Studio/My Library/People/Genesis/Genesis.duf ,finally solve half the problem.
