Things you will need before we start.
1. 3DS Max
2. Female04_Anime01_WeightingPoseMASTER
3. 3D Exporters

Assuming you have all this i will not spoon feed how to get 3ds max or how to set up the 3D Exporters. but will link where to get them

3D Exporters
MAX 7, 8, 2010 & 2011 Cal3D Exporters
MAX 2012 Cal3D Exporter
MAX 2013 & 2014 Cal3D Exporters
MAX 2015 & 2016 Cal3D Exporters


Moving on....

Open up your 3DS Max and load the Female04_Anime01_WeightingPoseMASTER..
if you need this file it can be found here >> Female04_Anime01_WeightingPoseMASTER <<

You should be looking at this now

Image

Now we need to change are view on this by going to Perspective Mode, and Realistic
Image Image

Now we want to select the head of the avatar and hide all that is not selected.
Image

With the head still selected you want to open the Morpher found here
Image

Before we make any face animation we need to delete some key frames
Image
Image

You should now see all the set key frames at the bottom. you want to Left Click Drag and Delete them
Image

After... Click back to the head and re select the Morhper

Now we need to turn on Auto key
Image

After we have Auto Key turned on we can now play with the Morpher

For this Tutorial i will make something simple.

Move the slider to around 30 frames.
Image

In the Morpher we will make the left eye do a wink by sliding the value up to 100
Image

Move the slider to around 60 frames. sliding the value back to 0 in the Morpher

Once finished we can now turn off the Auto Key and we want to set the frames to 61, this is done by Right Clicking the Play button and setting the End Time to 61
Image

Now we are ready for Exporting, Click off the head the re select it to get out off Morpher
Image

Once you select export you want to save it as .XPF then Save it and Press Finish
Image
Image

Now you are done and you made your Animated face Morph Happy Uploading!!!

Awesome guide, very handy. There was a video on youtube similar to that but it didn't explain as detailed as this one. Very good job of creating this, saves time
