You can't transfer it directly, but need to go through Genesis.
For the Morphs:

For the Skin:

There's also one for males:

One CAN transfer directly from V4.2 to G2F
You will need this product if you are going directly from V4 to G2
http://www.daz3d.com/victoria-4-for-genesis-2-female
As it contains the V4 shape
If V4.2 isn't available when clicking on the Source button, click on the Load Figure button instead and navigate to your V4 cr2 file.
After checking (selecting) all relevant morphs, choose whether you want to use the V4 shape or the clone, then select the target figure G2F at the bottom. You can even transfer to G2M IF you have created a V4 clone for him.
:)
Not sure where you got the idea that you can't transfer a morph straight from Victoria 4 to Genesis 2 Female, as the post by Nadino above this says that with the http://www.daz3d.com/victoria-4-for-genesis-2-female product and or http://www.daz3d.com/generation-4-legacy-shapes-for-genesis-2-female plus the Generation X2 plugin and the addon you can transfer morphs from Vicky 4 to Genesis 2 Female.. Same thing if going from Mick 4 to Genesis 2 Male https://www.daz3d.com/generation-4-legacy-shapes-for-genesis-2-male..
And with http://www.daz3d.com/victoria-4-for-genesis-2-female product you don't actually need the texture converter product..
I wasn't aware of the fact that you can transfer morphs right between V4 and G2F with the product you mentioned.
It never has worked for me, but perhaps my workflow is faulty.
The same goes for the textures.
Also,, I see no reason why you have to personally attack me over my apparently faulty or insufficient knowledge.
Makes me think twice before replying here in the forum.
I might add to Nadino response that it would be a good idea to set the mode to "Create Single Morph" and then click select next to mode, and choose "Transfer ON for all Non-Zero Values" Then call the new morph "Dixie". After this load up a fresh G2F, dial in V4 100%, and Dixie 100%, and in theory you should see your Dixie character as a G2F figure.
EDIT: where lee_lhs is correct about going through Genesis to import the character is concerning the skin. If Dixie's skin MAT is not a DUF file, then you need to apply the MAT first to a Genesis character, then create a material preset for this (which will be a DUF file), and finally apply the duf to G2F to see Dixie's skin on G2F.
Peace guys! If you need genesis generación x, it can't be called directly in all cases. In first time undertand if your definition of directly is the same is needed. I suspect that the answer is no-no
Sorry OP, don't mean to confuse ya with our back and forth lol.
Basically, the consensuses is that you will need following tools:
Required:
1. http://www.daz3d.com/victoria-4-for-genesis-2-female (Gives G2F the V4 shape and V4 UVs)
2. http://www.daz3d.com/genesis-generation-x2 (Allows for transferring Gen 4 morphs to Genesis)
3. http://www.daz3d.com/genx2-addon-for-genesis-2 (Adds support for G2 figures)
Optional:
(for the MATs)
http://www.daz3d.com/v4-skins-auto-converter-for-genesis-2-female-s
http://www.daz3d.com/v4-skins-batch-converter-to-genesis-2-female-s
but you can use G1 and save out your own preset like lee_lhs and Havos said.
I personally love these scripts since they do the tedious work wonderfully.
Once you have the required tools, read through the documentation provided in the GenX product to get familiar with all your new options.
Let us know if ya need help :)
I am sorry you think that I was personally attacking you, all I was trying to do was to point something out, I will speak no more..

There is another round about way to transfer textures is to load Vicky 4 into the scene apply the texture and save as a material preset, but is a lot more fiddly doing it that way as have to manually change the UV Set setting in the surfaces tab..
Just had a go at the way as described in yours and lee's posts and yeah is a lot faster of sorts and no messing around with the UV Set parameter in the surfaces tab.. :)
Apology accepted. I should've not reacted that strongly, but I forgot that sometimes things get lost in translation, or translate with different attitude than they were meant by the speaker.
Peace? :-)

Is there a difference between choosing V4 shape or the clone, I've seen it mentioned before to choose one or the other and I am wondering what the benefits of either is? Is one better than the other?
