[Solved] 8.1 actor loading with troubles

clembru

Hi everyone !

I have a problem with 8.1 actors, they are loading with misshapen issues !

Look at the attachment, on the left it's the G8 character, on the left the G8.1...

I already had problems with 8.1 before, like popups when loading to indicate duplicate formulas, I unistalled the problematic assets and don't have the popups anymore. I uninstalled and reinstalled Victoria 8.1 too.

But those misshapen are still remaining...

Any solutions ?

Thanks !

Only thing that comes to mind is to make sure you've checked that all the morphs are set to 0%?

If there is no problem with your G8, then you have a character/morph installed for G8.1 that has it's default value set at non-zero value, which means it is activated everytime for every G8.1 based character you load, including the ones you have saved before the problem occured.

Load the "Genesis 8.1 Basic Female" into an empty scene and in Properties tab, choose "Show hidden" and then select "Currently used", which dials appear with their value set at non-zero?

Edit; the fix.

To fix any ill-behaving morphs, do as follows;

1. Open DS and load "Genesis 8.1 Basic Female" (to an empty scene)
2. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Preferences->Choose "Show Hidden Properties" (part 3 zeroes only 'visible' dials)
3. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Zero->Zero Figure (Zeroes the value of all the 'visible' dials)
4. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Memorize->Memorize Figure (Sets the current value of all the dials as their default value)
5. Edit->Save As->Support Asset->Save Modified Assets (Writes the changed default value to the morph files that were changed)

When saving "Modified Assets" DS shows a dialog and asks for confirmation;
"The following file(s) will be permanently modified:" - "Accept/Cancel" - Choose "Accept"

Close DS and wait -> Open DS again and load "Genesis 8.1 Basic Female", is the problem fixed?

Your answer is perfect, it was exactly what I needed to do !

Thank you so much :)
