GenX2 help

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

I'm using GenX2 with the g2 and g3 add-ons to convert some characters from m4 to g3m, and unfortunately several of my characters look quite different (enough so that they seem like a different person, and thus can't be used in this case). I've tested converting Lee for m4, and I can see that I get some differences there too, but less pronounced than for my own characters. Does anyone have any advice for how to improve the similarity?

Here's what I do:

Load m4 figure with morhph injections(Morphs++, Aged for m4, Ethnic faces)
Load my m4 character shaping preset

In GenX:
Drag and drop m4 base shape to the Transfer tab
Drag and drop morph injections (Morphs++, Aged for M4, Ethnic faces)
Select -> Get values from figure in scene
Select -> Transfer on for all non zero values
Mode -> Create single morph
Target -> Genesis 3 Male
Transfer

Close and load Studio just in case
Load g3m figure
Dial m4 and the new genX saved morph to max

    I've fiddled with a lot of the options, but haven't been able to improve things. Anybody have some advice?

    Thanks for the tip! The closest to my problem seems to be someone who said it didn't work to transfer her dialed character from g2 to g3 as a single morph, but it worked if she transfered the morphs singularly and then manually dialed them in. I tested this, but it didn't make much difference for my case. I'm going to see if it's possible to use the g3 morphs I have to manually adjust my character into looking the same...

    I'm trying to add G3 figures to the G2 pool, so I can later play around with the dial to see the likes of 1/2 Gia 6 and 1/2 Gia 7, 1/4 Lee 7 and 3/4 Lee 6, or Ophelia 7 with Vic 6.

    But I'm not sure about the implications of the modes offered - single, ctrler, preset - or if it's better to separate nailbeds going from G3 to G2...
