Question Morph presets?

[Jackieboy]

Hi. Is it possible to save a specific combination of morphs as a preset? I noticed there's a tab called "Morphs Presets" that I've never used. I created a nice looking vagina for one of my previous characters, and I'd like to apply it to a new character I'm working on. I'd hate to have to load that old character back up, and take notes of all the vaginal morphs I used so I can redo the same morphs for my new character. Thanks.

That's what presets are for.
You may want to merge load them to not zero the other morphs.

Yes, I've managed with some testing to figure out how to save and load a morphs preset on another character but, it loads everything, all the morphs I have used. Face, breasts, hands, feet, body, vagina, etc. My question is: can I isolate, and save a specific combination of morphs, the vagina morphs in this case, and save only those as a preset? If everything else comes with it, it would take more time to undo all the morphs I don't need, than to recreate the vagina morphs from scratch using my notes of the original. Thanks.

Sadly, I don't think it's possible to save a subset of morphs as a preset.

A preset can be made with one morph or more.
Only need a few morphs for the vagina? Make a morph preset with only the specific morphs you want and merge load them in or save them as a overlay morph preset.

You can have multiple presets to act as subsets.

You would need to merge load them in a specific order to get the desired result, correct?

I guess only if the presets have shared morphs and you wanted to have the values of a specific shared moph.

That's a shame, thank you for confirming that to me. Maybe someone will make a plugin that can do just that, or maybe a feature request for VAM 2?

Maybe I'm not understanding well the problem it seems.
A) If you want to have a preset that has specific morphs for a region and you want to add them on a person, while not touching other morphs in use, you can do that with a overlay morph preset.
B) If you want to have a preset that has specific morphs for a region and you want to add them on a person, while at the same time remove any kind of morphs that can potentially affect the same region, then no because there's no categorisation or morphs can be labelled to affect whatever the creators decided to specify.

Is it A, B or something else?

Thank you for your continued efforts to try to help me, I appreciate it.

I think the problem is that the morphs I would like to transfer are already part of a finished character that has lots of different morphs applied to them. It seems that I can't save just a specific set of these morphs, the preset would contain all the applied morphs from the characted it was saved from. In my case I want only the vagina morphs, but the face, body, breasts, etc, morphs would all come as one package in the preset, and would all be applied if that preset was used on a new character. There's no way it seems to select what morphs are applied from the preset and which ones are not.

Now, if I was to make a another character, adjust only a specific set of morphs, the breasts lets say, then save that as a preset, then that may work. As there's only a specific set of morphs relating to the breasts that is being transferred over from the preset, nothing else would be affected, only the breasts because that's all that's being transferred over.

But that doesn't help in my case, as I'm trying to cut corners as it were by taking a part of and old character and putting it on a new character.
Making a dummy character to apply a specific set of morphs to, just to save that as a preset, then appling that to my new character seems a waste of time as I could just adjust the morphs directly on the new character instead. I'm just looking for a way to save some time in the character making process.
Thanks.

Ok, I understand now. The resulting shape is a combination of several morphs that affect the region you want but also other regions that you don't want. Yeah, presets would not be helpful to have a finished consistent look.
If you really want a region to be used widely in a very specific way then you might want to make morphs of your own, or a in-between preset step that could save some of the work, or a scene for adjustments purpose with some frequent sliders to assist the editing.

The Morph Merge and Split plugin has the option to separate and export the genital morphs as a single morph. Maybe that might work to get just the vagina morphs of the character.

Thanks, I will try that.

You can also merge just specific morphs with the ceq3 plugin. While the plugin is generally used to create full body/head/gens morphs for a completed look it can also be used for targeted merges.

For example, take the boobs you want to use on other models, default everything except those specific morphs and make a merge of it calling “myboobs01” or whatever is relevant. You can then take this merged morph and use on other looks.

This might be a bit more tedious but you could use the process to make specific nose or any other targeted morphs that could then be reused so depending on your use case might be worth it.
