Convert clothing from Genesis 2 to Genesis 3/8 figures

mikey186

I have one of my favorite clothing that I want to convert for use for Genesis 3 and/or 8 Female. The only problem is that with G3F has more bones, I DO have the autofit tool for Genesis 3 female, but the weight maps in Genesis 2 clothing have changed during autofit. 

To prove, as you can see the attachment file, on the left is G2 and the right is G3. As you can see, when I move the abdomen, the custom weight map on G2F moves so smooth and perfectly. But on G3F, it just ties to just the 0 position while the top stays there. Unfortunately, not much of the Autofit works well especally on coats like this. 

Is there a way to make it fit on Genesis 3 Female with the weight maps intact without any change?

As for the issue, the figures are different enough that, for a clothing item, you do need to convert the weight maps - you would then need to edit them to give the desired result (at least you could have the G2 version open as a guide). The G2 version may also be using morphs controlled by the bends (JCMs) to adjust the shape as you pose.
