So I downloaded the new version of Measure Metrics posted by Fallen and after updating Daz Studio to the latest version got it to work. Thing is, I'm not 100% sure that it is measuring accurately, at least when it comes to underbust and bust size.
For example, using the base Genesis 3 model it says she is 179.86 cm (5' 10 3/4") tall with a waist of 66.24 cm (26"), a bust of 94.49 cm (37"), and hips of 96.34 cm (38") (37-26-38). The underbust shows as being 75.36 cm (29.67") which would have her wearing a 30 G/GG bra (US size). It could be that I am unable to correctly picture breast sizes but looking at the basic G3 female, her breasts don't look that big to me. Is it the model that is distorted, having a too small underbust, is MM not measuring it correctly, or are her breast really a G/GG cup?
I think the problem lies with the confusing RL measuring systems for bust sizes.
US UK & European systems are all different, & it is not surprising that so many women apparently end up with ill fitting garments.No, I do not think that it is a fault with the program per se.
FWIW I would say base G3F is a UK C cup.BTW I have set custom characters to RL models stated statistics & with a little latitude for vanity, they do come out pretty good.

How did you get it working without a serial number? Perhaps I am missing something in the instructions but my copy requires me to plugin a serial number to use it.
If it is your first installation of the program, it will require a serial entering.
Some earlier uploaded versions did include a serial number, which will work provided you are not using that spawn of satan 'Connect' 😉🙂
The only sure fire way to know if the dimensions were exact would be to create your model with the specs you want and then get it 3D printed as life size. Then measure it up, for science.
Do it for science. 😀
We could calibrate the 3D Printer by using Measure metrics and printing out a life-size model!
I found a comparison chart for cup sizes US vs UK. Apparently the chart I used for figuring out the G3F cup size was UK since the US doesn't have GG. UK vs US Bra Sizing I must have miscalculated somewhere since this chart shows a difference of ~7 inches between underbust and bust would be G in US sizes or an F in UK. I seem to recall reading somewhere that you need to add or subtract 2 somewhere to get the correct results... Why does women's clothing need to be so damned complicated? How the hell can you have a size 0, size 00, and size 000???
