Tutorial: Poser FBMs with welded figures
In a previous discussion on DAZ3D came out that using welded figures for FBMs caused the resulting morph to “esplode” the target geometry, see this early YouTube video.
Well, I resolved the issue and here is another tutorial that shows you how you can still export a welded figure from DAZ Studio, edit it in Blender and then re-import it as a morph target and be a Happy Camper ™


Wow a trainer who doesn’t put me to sleep. I love watching your videos. You are very thorough, your pacing is good and the music adds just enough tension. Please make more videos. I would love to see one about troubleshooting the morph loader in DAZ. There is nothing out there and I’ve been looking for days. Watching your video tipped me off to solving a morph loader problem. I’m going to go test that now. I’m just now learning to use DAZ Studio and Carrara (to alter figures).
thanks!
Thank you Lisa. I do have some tutorials centered around Studio scheduled for the future. I appreciate your feedback.
Paolo Thanks! I finally got my test morph to load and behave from Cararra to DAZ. There was enough similarity between Blender and Cararra that I was able to extract the settings at each step. I had to watch your FBM video about ten times to make it work. Thank you for the complete workflow, great descriptions and humor along the way. Makes your videos easy to watch over and over. Can’t wait to see the rest of the tutorials.
Even if Reality 1.25 for DAZ Studio is registered, it is not possible to do.
Unfortunately there has been an error in receiving the registration data from our sever.
Pleease try again later.

Hello Teruaki. I removed your registration information because posting in public can cause your registration data to be used by others, which will effectively lock you out. Please send me your full information, including first name and last name used. My email is phciccone at gmail dot com
Thanks.
Thank you.
It was possible to register.
i wanted to watch your video on using welded figure but it won’t load for me just say no file found
Thank for letting me know. The videos have been restored. Enjoy!
ummmm, I’m sorry but now just a big black screen comes up. is there some special plugin i need for your sight because i REALLY want to know how you got past the “explosion” problem. i tried it with both weld and un-weld but my morphed v4 still goes “boom”
It’s a Flash video so it will not show on iOS devices, including my iPad
. I’ll convert it as soon as I can but for now you need a computer with Flash installed.
Cheers.
well, i am on a pc and just made sure i have the latest flash viewer but still when i click the image it takes me to a black window and does nothing more. I really liked your other morph tutorial on youtube and being able to use a welded obj for FBM would be awesome
@hatton
You are absolutely right, a few files were still missing. I tested it and it runs now.
Thanks again.
thank you thank you it works and the tutorial is fantastic….now i have to get morph loader pro… which is only availible in the daz tool kit for $200…darn
