Hello therem Karina!

first, I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for spending the time and effort and doing this terrific service to the community! I've been using poser for a decade now, and after a layoff of a few years, got back and found out about all the mess with G3/G8, which made me actually consider with a heavy heart moving to DAZ (I still do, to tell you the truth, but poser angels like yourself and the one that created PE might help me stick around with the software I learned to love and understand.)

so, thank you. this is a truly noble service to the community, in my humble opinion.

I read your quick start guide and I'm reading Sasha's manual now. I started to work with her, and since I'm working now on a comics and already finish part of my project, I wanted to copy-paste my V4 heroine's keyframes onto the same figure that I re-created, this time using Sasha-16 instead of V4.2

the thing is,the poses aren't being copied exactly. the main issues are in the legs (Sasha's comes out more spread with the very same keyframes/saved poses), and the expressions (when V4 shows some of the bottom and under rows of teeth, sasha will only reveal her upper, etc).

I know there are some special sasha tweaks, and found most of them, I think, But i couldn't get her to look the same using the same poses/keyframes. am I missing something, or is this just the way it is, and I need to re-position everything all over again if i want to use her on an already half-finished project?

thanks <3

Hello Dreamweaver,

first let me thank you for your words of appreciation; when I get feedback like this it makes all the countless hours of work worthwhile.

To your problem:

What you experience (i.e. slightly different poses) is due to the fact that I had to modify the V4 joint centres for SASHA in order to
a) avoid a copyright infringement
b) and while I was at it, also improve some for the better bending

Unfortunately that results in poses never being the exact same between V4 and SASHA.


For your project:

Of course I don't know your project and your workflow.
But maybe you can finish what you have by now, using the old V4, and then create a new instance of your scene (s), delete the old V4 to replace them with SASHA, and continue with SASHA instead of V4?
(just like in movie making where scenes filmed on different days are cut together)?

If I understood you wrong you may slap me with a wet noodle
And if you have more questions, just ask!

Karina

thank you so much for the swift replay, karina!

well, to tell you the truth, I fell in love with sasha-16 enough to invest a few hours and just fix all of the frames. she's worth the trouble!

I'm making her my base model now, so next projects will be easier, as I'll learn all of the right ways to tweak her better .

thanks again for your work and effort <3.
