G1 UVs to G8

evacyn

Is there any way to convert Genesis 1 UVs to use on a Genesis 8 character? I have the Legacy UVs products, but they only have an option to get Aiko 5 to Genesis 3. The only Genesis 8 option is Victoria 5. Thanks!

Evacyn, you can use the Map Transfer utility in DAZ Studio to convert an Aiko 5 or any other Genesis UV texture to Victoria 5.  Then you can put the texture onto Genesis 8 using "Legacy UVs for Genesis 8: Victoria 5".

For tutorials on the Map Transfer utility see either:
