I messed something up and now Genesis 8 always loads with preapplied morphs.

I was trying to learn how to make a save a custom morph slider last week and when I went to play with Daz this week, I noticed that Genesis 8 Female always loads with a character morph applied. How can I undo that? I don't recall what I did since it was last week. I just need her to load without any morphs applied anymore.

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

    1. Load your base figure or the developer version to an empty scene. ("Genesis 8 Basic Female" or "Genesis 8 Female Dev Load")
    2. Select the figure
    3. Select "Show Hidden properties" in the Parameters-Tab, drop down menu (right-click)
    4. Zero the figure (Found in Parameters-Tab, drop down menu)
    5. Memorize the figure (Found in Parameters-Tab, drop down menu)
    6. File->Save As->Support Asset->Save Modified Assets

    This procedure will zero the default value in the ill-behaving morph/morphs, and while saving DS also shows you a list of the morphs it is changing.

    No dice. I tried your directions a few times and Genesis 8 still loads with morphs already applied. The loading process also is taking much longer than it used to last week.

    Looking at the screenshot it seems that Gou Luk character is applied automatically. Reinstalling Gou Luk character should fix the default value of the Gou Luk character morph.

    No dice! 

    I did however figure it out by searching through similar threads. Namely this thread: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/2579591/

    The problem was that I saved the morph as an asset file, which is found in the data folder ( \data\Daz 3D\Genesis 8\Female\morphs\authorname\productname)

    I must have mashed the "save as asset" button at some point while experimenting with custom morphs because I recogizned the "author name" I left on the morph asset folder as my own.

    So it wasn't Gou Luk directly but a morph you saved which used it?

    Glad you found what caused the problem.

    I must have had Gou Luk's sliders turned up when trying to create a custom morph slider. 

  • Threads like this are the only reason I make it out alive from my Dazasters.

    Thanks for the help, had the same issue. Sometimes the morphs are not showing as dialed in.

    I zeroed the figure, 
    Found morphs dialed in for hidden morphs
    Set them to zero
    Memorized figure
    Went to save as>morph asset and HERE is the part that will help someone in the future > for me, it was a morph loader pro issue because I wanted my base mesh to include morphs I made in blender. It overwrote my G8. Instead of deleting my [username] morph folder, I just saved 'morph loader pro' changes.

    Now I have all my morphs saves and my character doesn't have issues pre-loading in with my morphs.
    Thanks - Cheers!
