Trouble with distorted geografts in more extreme posing, with bend correction morphs

highStrangeness

So, I have a problem I figure others have had, with geografts (in this case, Meipe's Golden Palace set, which I am using with a G8.1F figure) being pulled out of shape.  The project I am working on requires fairly "flexible" poses for the character, and I am using the Ultimate Bend morphs (and I have shape enhancer morphs too).  In the pose I'm working on, the mesh for the base figure is distorted by the pose itself, which is why I need those bend morphs to correct them.  However, once I do that, the morphs affect the bones of the GP graft and distort it out of shape, which is not at all what I want.

I tried weight painting but that didn't seem to work at all.  I'm not real sure how to go about doing it, although I am familiar with Blender's method of weight painting. Regardless, I have struggled with this problem for awhile and haven't found any viable solution.  I posted a similar message over at 'Rotica about this very problem (with pictures, which I can't post here, for obvious reasons), several months ago but that didn't get me anywhere.

I can't believe there is no way to get the geografts to behave properly with these kinds of poses.  Anyone have any idea on how to correct this?

After posing the figure, select the geograft, go to the Parameters Tab, make sure "show Hidden" is selected {via the hamburger menu} and select the option to show all used. In there should be a list of all the morphs it has picked up from the figure. Dial them down or to 0, one by one until you discover which are causing the distortions.

Umm... the Golden Palace set is not sold here on Daz3D, and that product has nothing at all to do with it.  It is a female genital prop geograft, and sold on Renderotica.

In any case I figured out how to mitigate the problem, by changing the pose some and applying some other correction morphs made for the groin area, made by Zev0.  Although, I already knew what morphs were causing the problem, anyway.  The issue is that I needed those same morphs that are causing the distortion in the GP graft, because they correct the distortion on the legs & lower abdomen in the G8.1F figure, caused by the pose itself.  It would be nice if the G8.1 rigging allowed for more flexible/contorted poses like that in a realistic manner, though.
