Ooh.  I think I'm slowly working out some improvements for the shape transfer process.  There's almost perfect overlap here, and the transfer is fairly clean.

To accomplish this, I raised the "Cutoff Distance" threshold to 0.008 and the "Number of Influences" to 7, for the comparison.  I made a slight change to the shape transfer code in the transfer script, to use worldspace vertices for the target actor, rather than localspace.  Then I ran Restore Detail on the resulting transferred shape, using the "one pass" default settings except for the "Threshold" setting, which I raised to 0.075.  (This accomplished the cleanup without pulling the mesh back toward Antonia's shape nearly as much.)

So perhaps my qualms about shape transfer with this process were unfounded.  I just hadn't found the optimal settings for my own scripts.  :lol:

The eyelashes line up!  Zoot!  :woot:

Edit:  I've uploaded the edited transfer script to my site.  The link remains the same as before.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
