Genesis 2 on DS 4.5 ?

edited December 1969 in Daz Studio Discussion

Will genesis 2 and V6 work on Daz Studio 4.5 ? I want to buy them, but I won't upgrade to 4.6 because of them, too much at risk. If they don't work I'll wait.

    The figure will work in 4.5 but the textures won't, so you pretty much need 4.6

    From what I know you'll have to apply textures/settings manually and resave them as *.duf files (not sure if DS 4.5 can save dufs) for them to work on G2F but it is the same in DS 4.6. I was able to fit G2F clothes in DS 4.5 without problems. It might be possible to do it much quicker by applying them to Genesis figure first and saving as *. duf from there. You'd only need to do it once for each matpose.

    Speaking of surfaces, G2F lost clever surface numerical marking and now all surfaces 1) don't have a number that indicated if they were on the same file 2) ordered alphabetically. It might be uncomfortable to use. In DS 4.6 there are (IMHO, badly) done surface groups for quick selection purposes but there is also bug tracker

    asking to fix absence of numericals in surface names.

    Cool, thanks,but I think I'll wait for now.

    btw 4.5 works with duf, otherwise F5 and others would not work, I think the leap was from 4.0.x to 4.5x

    The other thing that won't work in DS 4.5 is autofit of Genesis1 clothing.
