The instructions say "Go to the Grafts folder". What does this mean? Where is the grafts folder?

    Per http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/90928/start

    • You can find new icons for loading this product in the following DAZ Studio Folders:

      • “People:Genesis 9:Anatomy:RawArt:Severed Man”

      • “People:Genesis 9:Anatomy:RawArt:Severed Man:01 Grafts”

      • “People:Genesis 9:Anatomy:RawArt:Severed Man:02 End Cap Shells”

    • You can find new icons for this product in the following DAZ Studio Categories:

      • “Anatomy:External”

      • “Documents”

      • “Utilities:Scripts”

      • “Web Links”

    so the Grafts folder (strictly "01 Grafts") is a folder in the Content Library pane under Daz Studio formats. The files are also available through category views, but with a structured product like this it is usually simpler to keep track of things by using a view that shows the folder structure on disc (which the creator didn't have for reference when writing the docs).

    I found it. And it doesn't do anything. When I run the copy g9 materials script. Nothing happens. When I disconnect the head from the body. All I get is an end cap that floats away.

    You need to select the figure rather than the geo-grafts before running the script of Copy material....

    I did select the figure first. It tells you to do that. I ran the script in the script console and it said it ran in 0.658 seconds. Nothing seems to have happened though. And you can see the end cap floating by itself in the image I first posted.

    This. This doesn't happen. I never get a "Genesis 9 - Head" object with the severed head inside. The script doesn't make that happen. It doesn't do anything.

    Is this normal? I created a clean G9 figure and went to the Severed Man folder.

    A) Start state.

    B) Merged the severed head graft (No idea where the figure went)

    C) Ran the script. No extra content was added to the scene.

    The result is normal and correct which is in line with the thumbnail preview. After loading the severed head, the geo-graft uses Auto-Hide method to hide the body. The the script also successfully copied the material from G9 to the lonely head... The scrip will bring nothing to the scene but just copy the material ~~

    So how do I end up with the original figure and the head?

    Am I supposed to duplicate the figure first if I want a head and headless body?

    Yes, otherwise you can't move them independently (which I wpuld assume you need to do or why split them).

    Yeah, I figured it out eventually. Thanks a whole lot for your help Richard.
