i have 4 morph targets and 1 main object... I want to change few things on the main object and want all the morph targets to be updated with the same change so I don't have to do the morph again or don't have to do the same changes on all targets...

If i can get the targets to act as reference to the main object it will save me a lot of time... or is there another way I can do this !!!

thankx

You can try instead using 'Edit_Poly' modifier on one object and then copy it to all the others

You could also easily use morphmodifier again to transfer changes. With a mesh select beneath it you could even define which parts you want to update and which you don't want to update. I guess I never trust editpoly modifier since it can be very unstable on saving and opening files, in my experience.

there is also the thing of if you have 30 targets with an edit poly mod on have you seen how BIG the file is!?
