Not sure if this was clear from my text, but the Morph's you disable are still disabled when Daz restarts. Since the file-extensions are changed, Daz can't find them anymore until you re-enable them again. It's just once you have loaded a figure in Daz, disabling Morphs won't have an effect until you restart Daz.Thanks for the in depth info. A big concern I have is its interaction with render queue. If the morphs only get disabled until daz restarts it could be a problem since render queue closes and reopens daz after each render. Unless the turbo loader preset is automatically applied before a scene loads it appears that I'll either have to manually render each image instead of queueing them up, or alternatively not use turbo loader. Neither of those situations is ideal.
The manual states: "Turbo Loader Scene Configuration will save a configuration containing all the non-zero morphs and properties in the current scene for supported figures. Use this configuration to quickly enable all the needed morphs before loading the scene again using the Turbo Loader Configurations script."
And later: "Before loading this scene again, use the Turbo Loader Configurations script to re-enable the morphs needed."
So you can create a Turbo Loader preset from a scene, but it won't automatically be loaded when the scene is loaded. I have no experience with Render Queue so I have no idea whether you can make it do something before and render, nor do I know if you can use a script or something to load a preset with Turbo Loader.
What you could do is create a preset for all the characters and morphs you use and keep updating this preset for all your renders. Then use another preset with all or at least more morphs if you are designing new characters. Another solution would be to group renders that use the same morphs, create a preset for those and load that one before rendering with Render Queue. Or better yet, create scene Turbo Loader presets for each scene you want to render and load them all before you start your queue. The scene presets by default only Enable morphs so they would stack.
If Render Queue allows you to run something before it starts Daz, you also might be able to write a tool that renames the file-extensions just like Turbo Loader does. When you use the Scene Configuration tool from Turbo Loader you can save it and it's basically just a JSON file with the filenames it needs to enable. Using Turbo Loader you can also save out a file that contains all your morph's and you could use that to disable all morphs in that list first and then enable the morphs in the scene list.
I have no experience with Render Queue however, so I don't now what you can and cannot do with it. But perhaps you can ask on the Daz3D forums either in the Turbo Loader or Render Queue thread. If it is possible, then there must be people out there that combine them.
