Fastest/easiest way to port G2 morphs/shapes over to G8

Rod Wise Driggo

Well it's a long time but as I recently checked out all my old Gen2 stuff I found quite a lot of shapes and morphs I would like being able to use with G8. Some old figures (Belle, Reptilian, Minotaur) but also a lot of single morphs like the ones from Posermatic.

Own most of those converters but have not really used them a lot or - in case of Belle - with no real success.

Any recommendations how to start?

I own a number of Riversoft's conversion products. They work well.

I used Gen X2 to move to Genesis 3 and then XTransfer https://www.daz3d.com/xtransfer--genesis-3-to-genesis-8-converter to convert the morphs of a lot of my Genesis 2 Female figures, in particular all the base figures. I used a utility called Texture Transformer from Rendo to convert the texture files. Since you asked about Belle (I am assuming you mean Belle 6), then I have rendered the before and after so you can consider if it is a good enough conversion. Genesis 2 on the left, G8F on the right. Let me know if you want to see what any other Genesis 2 figure moved over looks like (if I own them of course). The problem with the Minotaur and the Lizard is they are HD figures, and the HD is pretty important for monsters, certainly a lot more important than it would be for the humans, particularly younger humans like Belle. The HD would be lost moving to Genesis 8.

I ditto this...after trying one of Riversoft's converters and having unwanted head bumps, I got XTransfer and have been really happy with it. I first use GenX2 and convert to G3 and then use XTransfer. As for textures, I use Cayman Studio's legacy uv's on G8.
