FaceGen Artist Manual
Create Tab
File Tab
File → Export
Parameter Group
Your shape morph will be placed within the Head region of the parameter tab and will default to the
group path shown. You can change this to anything you like as long as you remember that forward slash '/'
creates a sub-group and your group path should not end with a slash.
Parameter Name
Don't use any characters that aren't allowed in a filename.
Daz Studio Content Library
Daz Studio can read your new morph from any of your content directories.
If for some reason you want to use a different directory, first add it as a content directory in Daz
Studio (Edit → Preferences → Content → Content
Directory Manager → Daz Studio Formats → Add),
then re-start FaceGen Artist and it will appear on the list.
Troubleshooting
There is no face in the viewport
View → Camera → Reset Camera

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\FaceGen\Artist VERSION\
