Hiya!

Quick preview for a small set which should hit the store shortly.
It`s a bunch of muscle flexing morphs for Genesis 2 Females.
A rather basic set, but it includes flexing poses for biceps, abs, pecs and more, plus an Inhale morph (which doesn`t really have anything to do with the theme, I just thought it`s useful).

    Cool looking forward to seeing this come out. It's one thing I've missed with the G2Fem.

    Looks cool! Any chance of a set for the guys, too?

    Hi guys

    To start with, the set released, ...removed

    Edit: I think the intro discount talk was likely to cause confusion, so I removed it. Sorry about that. It`s not what I aimed for, but I don`t expect anything to change.

    Set for the guys...tbh., rather unlikely to come from me, but never say never.

    I hope for that too, the muscle morphs/poses are rather supposed to tie us over until that (hopefully) happens.
    They may remain useful even then though, coming with some variations (like 3 biceps morphs) and the inhale morph.

    Pft, the text on the product page also got changed quite a bit, apparently I missed that.
    I start thinking Daz are just doing their own thing here. :/

    Ha, that`s pretty much what my original text on the storepage was saying. ;)

    where do I find it flex muscle flip


    You should have new (colored) sliders under (Posing Tab) / Pose Controls in the subsections (arms, torso, etc.).

    If you use a scene you had saved before installing the new morphs the sliders might not show up. In that case have your figure selected and load a new genesis 2 female base. Allow it to apply to the selected figure (this will update the morphs) and then hit "undo" one time. That way you get back to your figure, but the morphs remain loaded.

    Hi guys

    To start with, the set released, but the intro discount is somewhat wrong right now, or shows wrong for me.
    Seeing how they made it part of today`s ladies night sale I am not sure what`s going on tbh..
    I mailed Daz about it, but I guess they are asleep at this time.
    Hope they are not off for the weekend yet.

    Set for the guys...tbh., rather unlikely to come from me, but never say never.

    As G2F and G2M are vertex compatible (the one is basically a morph of the other), morphs for one will work on the other. So if Flipmode isn't doing a specific male set right now, this G2F set can just be copied over into G2M's data folder. Then just do a bulk Search-all-and-replace-all on the pathnames in the .dsf files in a text editor, changing the G2F refs to G2M. For G2M use, maybe might want to increase the max limit.

    They may remain useful even then though, coming with some variations (like 3 biceps morphs) and the inhale morph.

    I was also feeling the lack of muscle and muscle flex morphs for G2F and G2M, but rather than roll my own, I just transfer-utility-ed the Genesis Evolution Muscularity and Genesis Alive! sets to G2F, then copied the CTRL .dsfs and the ERC formulae over as well, and finally copied the G2F conversions over to G2M too. Didn't take long to do (would take even less now we can just choose specific morphs to convert with transfer utility), and all work fine with G2F and G2M, including the Flexions ON/OFF and Muscle Volume dials. As the G2F and G2M meshes are basically Genesis's just with extra mesh in the face and joints, Transfer Utility converted the morphs perfectly, and they work with G2F and G2M just like in Genesis (even the aniblocks on Genesis Alive!). So for people who really want everything that's in Genesis Evolution Muscularity and/or Genesis Alive! in G2F and G2M and are fed up with waiting, if you have those Genesis products you can just convert them straight over. (I could write full instructions on converting, if someone wants them - it's not hard and doesn't take long ... or supply the conversions RTEncoded against the original Genesis imstaller zips, I suppose.)

    I will get this new FM set in a couple of minutes, though, as the variations may be useful.

    Flipmode - you said the intro discount was wrong. What was it supposed to be? Is it worth waiting for it to be corrected?

    Flipmode, too bad about no set for the guys...would have been an instant sale for me as I mostly use the male figures. Thanks for your honesty.

    David, I would really love to have a set of instructions for converting Genesis morphs to Genesis2 figures (or the RTE encoded conversions). I have tried to do this type of thing with my Genesis morphs but haven't had much success...I'm probably missing something. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Didn`t know that, nor anything that followed....good to know though!

    I hope you`ll like it. I think it`s a good and pretty cheap addition, most of the morphs are a bit stronger than the original genesis muscularity. I know you could unlock limits there, but it`s not quite the same.

    Intro discount ... I already regret mentioning it, sorry. I woke up, saw that it`s not exactly what I expected, and posted before my first coffee.
    After putting more thought into it, whatever it should have been, I think it`s very unlikely to change now. Too many sold copies already, plus it`s advertised in the newsletter, so changing it would just create chaos. So no, I don`t think it`s worth waiting. :/

    LOL Yeah you knew you should have been a lawyer first. ;)

    I did have issue with Flexon with the muscles not morphing more than I thought they should so these sound better and more what I am wanting.

    Awesome I'm using this in ds, poser pro 2014 is starting to loose. especially that I can export into my main render system. Cool

    Glad you guys seem to like the morphs so far. :)

    So...some may have noticed Daz corrected the intro sale to what was supposed to be from the start, friendly 60%.
    Obviously I didn`t expect them to do that since it already sold copies and was advertised at 30%.
    I`ve asked them about how they handle customers who purchased it before that change, but am still waiting for any reply.

    Each time I try to come up with a nice offer that is meant to make everyone happy something seems to go totally wrong, it`s ******* depressing.

    I second the Instruction thing. Would be nice and useful. In the meantime I so nabbed the Flipmode set for the use and extra it will offer.

    May I offer to host/mirror it if it happens? The tutorial section my site looks so empty anyway.

    Could someone tell me where these morphs can be found? I can't seem to find them anywhere in my figure. Thanks in advance.

    Parameters tab / Pose Controls/(body part -- Arms, Torso, etc.)

    That threw me as well; depending on what you've got installed, the torso options are at the bottom under a really startling number of breast options (seriously, I had no idea I'd bought so many things that worked on that part of the body). The arm options are at the bottom of that list, and so on. They all start "fm_(musclegroup)", where musclegroup is biceps or what have you.

    Thanks, but they're still not there for me. If I select Pose Control -> Arms for example, only the default morphs are there. Searching "All" for things like "bicep", "inhale" and even "fm" give me no results.

    Guess I'll try reinstalling, but this is strange.

    Tbh., I`d have prefered to have them in their own muscle group as well, I thought that was much more convenient to work with.
    Unfortunately it`s not allowed (guidelines), I had to change it to what it is now.

    SnowSultan, are you using a freshly loaded figure or something you had saved as scene before installing the morphs?
    If the later is the case check one of my posts above.

    Thanks, I tried both new figures and saved ones and they don't show up. Also tried reinstalling through DIM and manually, no luck. Not sure what else to try.

    One thing though, I'm never updating Studio again unless there is a colossal update with new features I can't live without. I'm fairly confident that I wouldn't be having any of these problems if I hadn't just updated it (not to mention I now have two versions of Studio with no uninstaller for either). And yes, I did load the old Studio to see if the morphs show up there, they don't. :\

    Thanks for the help so far though.

    Hm, that`s strange...as long as you have a DS version that loads Genesis 2 Female figures I don`t see why the version # could matter.
    Right now all I can think of is checking if the installation ended up where it should be.
    You should have the files somewhere like:
    (...Documents\DAZ 3D\) Studio\My Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 2\Female\Morphs\Flipmode\FM Muscle Flex

    Sorry, sorry, I got it fixed. After you posted where the files belong and I noticed they weren't there, I checked to see where DIM had installed them. For reasons I don't quite understand, they were being installed into the wrong directory. I straightened that out and now the morphs are working. :)

    Thanks for these, they're a good little set!
