I have bought "Character Converter G2F to G8F" for converting my customized G2F character to G8F.

The operation is performed according to the following procedure;
1.Open my G2F character on DAZ Studio Scene.
2.[File]->[Save As]->[Character Preset...].
3.Save on "
U:\My Works\Daz3D\My Library\People\Genesis 2 Female\Characters".
4.Open "Character Converter G2F to G8F" window.
5.Output Directory ->"U:\My Works\Daz3D\My Library\People\Genesis 8 Female\Characters"
6.[Add Files] ->"U:\My Works\Daz3D\My Library\People\Genesis 2 Female\Characters/Sierra_G2F.duf"
7.[Excute from Selected]
8.[Convert Item(s)]
9.[Save]-> Crashes!

Before pushing [Save] button, converted G8F character seems to be generated.
But opened G8F character does not have textures.

How can I convert my customized G2F character to G8F including textures?

    The converter just converts morphs, not textures. In order to use the "BASE" female GF2 textures on GF8 you will need this product https://www.daz3d.com/legacy-uvs-for-genesis-8-genesis-2-female.

    Keep in mind that most G2 textures were not made for Iray, so they will not look as good as newer textures.

     I have tried to convert the material preset using "Legacy UVs for Genesis 8: Genesis 2 Female", and I approached my target!
    Next I have to fight the texture shift next.

    Thank you for your teaching!

    No problem. The reason I say it converts the BASE female is that unlike G8, G2 core addon characters had their own UVmaps and if your original character was using one of them you will have to find another way.
