Can you use this texture from M4 to M5?

    M5 is just a morph for Genesis, and you can set Genesis to use M4 textures. So this should work on Genesis/M5 just fine, I assume.

    You can set the figure texture to M5/M4 and just set the eyes to V4 and it will work fine. When applying the eye set it just changes the UV of the eyes, so the skin will not be affected at all. So you can have multiple UV's used at once.

    What if you don't have V4 ?

    V4, M4, and K4 UV's come with Genesis, you can use them even if you don't have the 4th Generation figures.

    Genesis automatically comes with M4 and V4 (and, for that matter, K4) skin options. You do not need to have V4 on your system.

    Note that Genesis doesn't have the eye surface material zone that the fourth generation figures have, which may prevent the materials from working correctly.

    I actually bought it, it works perfectly fine :)

    Thank you for the suggestions everyone! It helped me very much.

    Hi
    I have a similar question, just in the case of Look at my Eyes the compatible figures mentions Genesis. What if it doesn't make any reference to genesis like in this case:

    Can I use a character made for M4 with M5? since I have Genesis anyway should it work?

    You can if you have GenX.

    The textures can be used on Genesis without anything additional; the morphs require GenX.
