The digital content creation landscape offers a wealth of free resources for artists and hobbyists using Daz Studio. For users working with the Genesis 3 Female (G3F) figure, a variety of free assets are available, including custom head morphs, pose sets, and hair. These resources can enhance character creation and animation projects without incurring additional cost. The following information details specific free assets, their features, and how to access them, based solely on the provided source materials.
Custom Head Morphs for Genesis 3 Female
Several free packages of custom head morphs have been released for the G3F figure, allowing for detailed character customisation. These morphs are designed to work without requiring additional commercial morph packs.
ModernWizard's Morph Packages
A contributor known as ModernWizard has released multiple free morph packs. One package contains 19 custom head morphs for G3F, with a note that a previous version released before July 5th, 2015, had a bug affecting eyeball rotation. The updated files fix this issue. Users are advised to delete all old .dsf files from the My Library > data > Daz 3D > Genesis 3 > Female > Morphs > ModernWizard directory before installing the new version. ModernWizard also mentioned a forthcoming package of 8 free custom head morphs for the G3F base, with one character example named Aimee.
Morphalynn: 127 Face and Head Morphs
Another extensive free package is Morphalynn, which provides 127 face and head morphs for G3F. These morphs are logically named with the prefix "MW-xxx" for easy filtering and are grouped and colour-coded. The package covers a comprehensive range of facial features, including the head, ears, brow, cheeks, chin, jaw, eyes, mouth, and nose. Key features include: * Asymmetry morphs: Four morphs each for the brow, mouth, and nose to add realistic asymmetry. * Real World morphs: Allow independent control of each side of the face for the brow, nose, and mouth. * Specialised morphs: Includes a large number of nose morphs, featuring fantasy Pinocchio noses and columella morphs (the flesh dividing the nostrils).
The morphs are noted to be compatible with G3F's facial bones, avoiding rigging issues. The package is licensed for both commercial and non-commercial use. Feedback from users indicates appreciation for the resource.
