Saved figures reload with exaggerated shaping.

Hello,

I did a search for this issue in the forums and Google but no luck.

I have Daz 4.6 installed on my laptop and my desktop. When I create a new figure or reload a finished saved character (morphs and materials) on my Desktop installation, the shaping is exaggerated. The bust and waist being the most affected regions.

For example,

1. I load a purchased or saved figure that has measurements of a 32" bust and a 27" waist. Regardless of where the figure was created, laptop or Desktop; this problem occurs on the Desktop installation only.

2. On my laptop, the figure loads perfectly, as it is predefined or any figure I created and saved.

3. Desktop, figure loads with the exaggerated morphs or shapes, the 32" bust would change to 45" bust and the waist would change to a 22" waist.

4. I can apply a saved shape and it resets it properly. If it is a store purchased figure, I have to zero the body shapes and use package morph slider to bring figure back to the intended shape

5. I have checked the settings in the shaping tab, for instance the heart that can be set to save setting as a favorite and they are all off.

6. I have also uninstalled Daz completely and this does not seem to fix the problem.

7. I was saving most of my characters/figures as Scene Subsets which could be the problem but the laptop installation of Daz has no issue. Regardless of how saved, however, a store purchased figure from Daz, should not have the issue.

I have created identical directories for both computers for backing up and copying over changes.

Any light shed on this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    What does the default Genesis look like when loaded fresh?

    The Genesis load appropriately, this seem to be a problem only with G2 females but not the G2 Males.

    I attached 4 files. You can see that genesis loads fine but V6 and one of my modified do not load right.

    Genesis loads correctly. Problem seems to be with G2 Females only.

    Looks like a saved morph (or free or bought) that is loading in set to a value above zero. Check all Morphs active when that happens for the offending morph(s) click Parameters> Currently Used with show hidden on if needed.

    I was not quite sure what parameter you were referring to. I assumed that you meant look at the parameters of the offending morphs. I attached an image of the waist width.

    What I'm say is load the Figure that is supposed to be default but has the extra shaping and check for more than one Morph that loads above a default value. Here is a V5 shape dialed in and Currently Used selected. See how V5 is listed as white and all the Sub morphs as red. Any morph that is Saved in and loading that is not Built into the Figures main Dial should List Under the V5 Dial and also list as white because it is active but not part of the figures base morphs. This is the only way I know to check for active morphs. White ones are Main single Morphs and Others are sub morphs of the dialed morph.

    If you have Accidently added morphs to the base figures dial then all I know to do is use DIM to uninstall that figure. Go into the figures Data in Morphs and look for the file(s) that were not removed (if any). IF they are any remove them from the figures base folder to another place and then Re-install the Figure again.

    DIM will only remove content it installed so if things do not get removed they have been added to the folder some how.
