Applying Genesis 3 Female head morphs

AnneWertheim

I just bought:

1. Genesis 3 Female head morphs
2. 200 Plus - Head & Face Morphs for Genesis 3 Female
3. Biometric Expressions: Happiness and Joy! for Genesis 3 Female
4. Biometric Expressions: Screams of Terror and Battle! for Genesis 3 Female(s)

Coming from Poser and a Newbie to Daz, I assumed once packages were installed I would need to apply the morphs to the figure and thus would have dials available to create the expression I wanted. 

After loading in the Genesis 3 female, I am able to find 200 Plus Head and Face Morphs, I believe I also located the Biometric Expressions but I am unsucessful in applying them

Even though my Genesis 3 female is selected, when I double click on one of the 200 Plus presets that  I can find under Shaping, nothing happens. When I select the head and look under "Shaping" Mouth, I find a dial Mouth Realism, but again, if I turn up the dial, nothing changes.

Where would I find the Genesis 3 Female head morphs and how would I apply them? 

What do I need to do to finally get going on shaping expressions on Genesis 3 female?

The morphs should be in the Shaping or Parameters pane with the figure selected - Actor>Head>various folders. I'm not sur about the Biometric Expressions, if they do add sliders they would be in the Parametrs pane, under Pose Controls, and most likely the Posing pane.

This is driving me nuts. I don't understand why I keep on running into issues with Daz Studio. I had Daz Install Manager download and install the four packages I preveiously bought.

I load the Genesis 3 female into the scene. I have the figure selected, go to "Poses", Expressions and double click "BE Angry Scream. When I check under Posing, Head, there are no new dials, the figure remains unchanged.

I can go to "Shaping" and apply , for example "200 Plus - Anya", but again there is no change. I had previously installed Toon Generations expressions and all those dials are available.

You're looking in the wrong sections of the tab. I don't have the female version of the 200, but the male, and it's in the Parameter Tab under "Actor".

equally, you will find the pose controls for facial expressions under Parameter Tab-->Actor-->Head-->Expressions. Some expression sliders only show up if you select the head in the scene, for whatever reasons.

Those will not add new properties, they just set the values for existing proeprties (which should be there, it looks as if you have the product installed correctly). Try Looking at the Currently Used group in the Parameters pane before and after applying a preset.

Please remember that we do not allow images of nude, textured ffigures - if you click the sphere icon to the left of the Perspective View button at top-right of the Viewport in your screenshot you can set the drawstyle to Smooth shaded, which is OK to show.

For whatever reason the Biometric Expressions:Happiness and Joy! for Genesis 3 Female is not showing up in my Parameters pane.

I have Genesis 3 female selected, I have applied one of the Expressions (BE Bright Smile), When I go into the Parameters pane,  , >Pose Control, > Head, >Expressions I can only find the expressions for Toon Generations, and none of the others.

Okay... I just bought this and installed it through DIM, and it shows up where it should.

That means that something seems to have gone wrong with the installation.

Have you tried uninstalling the morph set, deleting it from DIM, and redownloading it and then install it new? Also, keep DAZ Studio closed while you are doing this, just to be on the safe side.

Also, have you changed your installation location?

I finally have it working. Deleting and reinstalling didn't seem to help. Redownloading and running the script that shows Daz where to put things made the difference.

Everything seems to be working now!

Thanks so much for the help!!!!!!!!
