how to get same avatar according to 25 measurements?

xihaohuang18

in Daz Studio, when we change Body size or Body Tone or Bodybilder...(total 15 types) percents, we can get 25 measurements value from figure Metrics and save it to json file. The first question is there not same configuration that belong to each measurements, which I can not save all to json file? correct me if I am wrong.

the second question is what if we have those 25 measurements value on my own, and I want to create the same avatar as I got before,so is there any with to reverse back to calculate those values?

Not sure what you're trying to accomplish there, possibly what you're after is to save your changed figure in a Character Preset. That or a Shaping Preset. The .duf files can be read using a text editor providing you didn't encrypt them. If you encrypt them you can use 7zip to decrypt them so you can read the file.

Compress/decompress rather than encrypt/decrypt

What I am trying to accomplish is when we create a Actor, we can find total 25 measurements(preset) from Figure Metrics. In those 25 measurement preset, there are 4 measurement(height,low hip circumgerence, Bust circumference and waist Circumference) correspond each properties from configuration preset. But for other 21 measurements, I cannot find the proper properties that correspond each measurement. Which mean if we cannot find those proper properties, we cannot save those measurements to json file.

You select the morph you want to use in the Configuration tab - but be careful not to pick combinations that will fight each other. There are a few morphs included with Figure Metrics, I think in part because there weren't any single-slider alternatives in existing sets that people could use, but given the huge range of morph sets there are it wasn't practical to pre-set every proeprty (nor would it be wholly practical to try to use every single one in one operation).

Thanks ;-) At least I didn't call it chicken scratch this time.

 No wonder I didn't know what in the world you were referring to, I missed that "Figure Metrics" is a plug-in [which obviously I don't have]. {Measure Metrics aka Figure Metrics going by the YouTube videos}

Measure Metrics is the plug-in, which provides the tools for taking various types of measurement. Figure Metrics is a script (actaully a PA product) bundled with the plug-in which uses its functions to give a read-out of a figure's vital statistics and to enable the adjustment of seelcted morphs to set the measurements to target values.

Thank you for the clarification Richard.
