Hey there!
I get this error (see pic) when I want to load the skin and morph onto M4 or Genesis.
I have M4 base installed so I have no idea why it says it isn't there.
Also, This figure should be Genesis compatible as well, but it gives exactly the same error as when loaded onto M4.
Any hunches?

    M4 Base is not a Genesis shape, it's a separate figure with old-style rigging. That is looking for the Michael 4 Shape for Genesis, which is a different product - and not absolutely required, it just means you end up with a slightly different shape from the creator's original intent.

    Aaa, I see now, ty!
    I purchased the M4 base so this kind of thing wouldn't happen anymore ><<br /> Seems it's a bit more to it then I thought.

    Aww crap, I bought the wrong one then ><<br /> I'll get the one you suggested and try for a refund then.
    Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

    Ok, I bought the V4 and M4 shapes for Genesis.
    I don't get the error anymore somehow, but when I apply the M4 shape to Genesis and load a M4 skin texture it looks distorted.
    Tried anything I could think of but I just can't make it work. *throws something*

    Are you selecting/changing the genesis UV's to use the M4 UV's in the Surfaces tab ?

    Eh, that did the trick!
    Small solution, big difference :)

    sometimes it's finding the simple things that are the difficult part. :)

    I'm glad to help
