Earlier this month, I did purchase Poser 13, with an eye toward updating things. I've been using Python 3 in other contexts, but I don't trust my understanding to be broad and abstract enough to try to update the scripts without being able to test the changes. So I've neglected them. Conversion could be as simple as running 2to3 on them, or it could be much more involved. But! All of that hinges on the idea of Poser 13 being willing to run on one of the klinky, old Windows 7 machines I use for Poser. If that doesn't work, my plan may be sunk, at least for a time.this looks really useful, nice to see your work again. hope i can figure out how to install it when you get it ready. btw i really miss being able to use your old scripts in P13 (esp chain maker (the one that places markers & makes a chain) & mr. skinner); too lazy to reinstall P11 on my new rig though it may come to that.
There are days when everything goes as anticipated, when programming a thing like this, and then, for me, days when I haz the dum and everything I try fails maddeningly and incomprehensibly. I've had those two types of day back to back. Grumble. The core of the program works, it could be used to produce morphs now, but it has no undo function and can't save and load projects-in-progress. It will be able to save the marker setup for a picture set or a Poser head, so these can be easily reloaded for later projects. But that isn't set up yet. Right now, I'm trying to de-skew front pictures with the head turned slightly, using an approach similar to the parallax effect seen in some cartoons and video games. But, the dum haz me, alas.

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.
