How to get eyebrows or beards to follow once fitted to figure?

I always hide the chips on LF and LH. I don't do Genesis, or I would do that too, if it's possible in DS.

The chips for Genesis are hidden by default but man when I put my beard on Genesis 8 Male and it worked with all the expressions and morph dials for the face I was blown away. I was informed that this also works for La'Femme and L'Homme. When there was talk that the Hivewire figures 2.0 series is done they will also have face chips. Hate them or love them but for conforming face props they are a must!

I have attached a lot of things on Genesis and it always worked. Never seen it work so easily before.

So in Genesis they are hidden, I dont see them when I goz Genesis to zbrush. I have seen them on LA femme and also on model Bella, for me a lot extra frustrations haha when I morph beyond the normal.
I rip the model apart every way I can and build up again to in-dawn or un-genesis them.

But we will see. I like things the hard way haha. Bit of self torture

Genesis doesn't have face chips - they were introduced in G8, although I believe G3 has something as well.

Hmmm, that's interesting that you say in ZBrush you've seen the chips. I don't ever see those but then again I use the hide dial to turn them off as they can be distracting for other areas of production or setting things up where your working with the face and they are visible. I've become good friends with that OFF dial! LOL

I haven't forgotten the eyebrows. I managed to create almost the same brows as Dawn 2's texture set. If there is interest i can send them to the hive crew. I cannot test if the rigging works, because I only have the static mesh.
