How To Add Eyes To an Eyeless Figure?

miladyderyni_173d399f47

I recently picked up https://www.daz3d.com/dav-sidra-hd-for-genesis-9-feminine and love the character. But when I wanted a version with eyes, I couldn't figure out a simple way to add them. When loaded, the eyes show as visible in the scene tab but they aren't there! I ended up loading a second figure, parented in place and hiding all but those eyes. 

Is there a simpler solution? I like both the original and my eyed variant & will use them again.

More detail on how I went about it and a picture are in this post: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/8821286/#Comment_8821286

You can delete the geograft node : DAV Sidra G9 HD Feminine Face Graft under the character. Does that looking work for you ?

The "eyes" under the Sidra figure Head are actually the node control bones. Delete the geograft, then add some eyes (and optionally, eye moisture) from the Base Anatomy folder. Textures are found under the Base Materials folder (or any other G9 eye materials).

Select the Sidra figure, then add the eyes. They will fit to Genesis 9, so they will respond to the G9 eye controls on the Head, no need to do anything more. The Eyes themselves have controls, but will not move the eyelids like those on the Head.

I got that far & only found a hollow head LOL

@Northof45, I never thought to look in Anatomy. I am still not very familiar with how the G9 files are organized.

Thanks, folks.
