Posts: 397 		Favorite Characters Not showing up in certain instances...this has happened before, now it's an issue I need to bring to light. Here is a little trick I learned before, but now cannot do and not sure why: I created Kiss characters w/muvizu masks(no mouth) when i did my very 1st kiss vid, then when zig made thosse textures I made same video only now I used the textures from zig, but here's the trick - I didn't have to recreate all the actions, set designs or even the characters! here's how I did it: I RIGHT clicked the masked kiss characters, then I was "able to find the favorite kiss characters I made w/zigs textures" and I double clicked on that favorite and it REPLACED the character leaving all the actions and everything in tact, so I didn't have to recreate the whole animation or anything all I did was replace the old with the new characters and viola!....are ya with me still? ok cuz here is the problem I notice...and I wonder if it is a set file issue, I just recently redid the kiss characters and improved them on my laptop, then imported (in a new set file) and saved those New favorite kiss characters as favs. The problem is when I opened the original set file with my old kiss characters and everything there...I can't Replace them now because when I'm in that set file When I RIGHT Click the old character the New favorite characters I saved do not show up in the favorite listing, but if I open a new set file there they are in the listing.
So, is there a way Muvizu can tweak it so ALL Favorites are available for ALL set files? and I'm not sure what I did to make it work before as to why I can't make it work now, it's been so long since I did it I forgot what I did to make that work. Please Help! I would like to make a new kiss vid without necessarily recreating all the actions etc all I wanna do is replace the characters w/my new characters

That's correct. Are you trying to replace an old character with a new Favourite of a different character type? If so, that would explain why you can't get it to work!

Different character types have different available attachments, animations, etc. The Favourites system is just a way of getting Muvizu to remember which attributes you chose for a specific character type, and then reusing them for that same character type at the click of a button. You couldn't save a Fat Woman character wearing a Skirt as a Favourite and then use that Favourite to skin a Blob, because the Skirt is not an available attachment for the Blob. So, no, I'm afraid it's just not possible to save attributes of one character type as a Favourite and then use those Favourite attributes on a different character type.
