Let us choose which morphs to load before loading a character into the scene?

Let's say we want to load G8F into the scene.  It would be nice if we could specify which morphs to load for it.  I noticed that the more morphs G8F has, the slower it is to load.  Letting us specify which morphs to load before hand could help fix that.

What do you guys think?

    Not sure how that would work as there are usually a ton of morphs in my custom characters, so i couldn't tell the app which ones to load or not load. Try this https://www.daz3d.com/turbo-loader-for-genesis-8-and-81

    I was very much interested in that product, but somehow wondered how that product would handle loading different custom figures with different morph setups..

    Try the Turbo Loader Booster Utilities. The Open File / Merge File / Inspector utilities should be of interest.

    If you want to use a specific character preset, it's best to use that character preset. Whether that's Sakura, Tara or classic Victoria. You can also save a character as a preset to load instantly with all of the dials and morphs as you set them previously.

    To do this, go to File -> Save as -> Character Preset

    You can then simply load the character preset immediately by double-clicking on your character preset in the Content Library. I have many character presets saved, as there are a few I used regularly. There's also a handy-dandy guide in my sig if you want it to show up in the main Smart Content menu.

    Years ago you could load a figure without any morphs add the ones you wanted and then save it as a custom figure.

    However there were complaints from people who wanted all the morphs to load but didn't want load them and save a custom figure and then there was the problem created when you bought an outfit and it didn't have all the morphs in it.

    So now everything loads every morph you have and you get long load times and a list of morphs that takes three days to look through with many duplicates of right eye closed, breasts big, cleavege mouth open and so on

    No, the channels always had to be present - which was why combining mutliple sets was a pain, if each had its own custom CR2. The ExP System used by Victoria 4, Michael 4, etc. used separate pz2s listing each morph pack's entries and a utility to index them all for loading, but that required updating the inex files after any instalaltion. The only system that would inject morphs without any groundwork was the Poser .pmd system, but that had memory impact initially and the format of the calls changed with every service pack making ti impossible for Daz to implement, and a pain for Poser users.
