Is there a way to render G8.1 in Daz4.12?

I don't want to update to 4.20 (yet) but I need to use 8.1 characters (AB Incunabulus HD for Genesis 8.1 Male, among others).
What's my best option in order to render these 8.1's in 4.12 Iray?

Thank you in advance.

    Can't help about the Iray, but 8.1 works all right in 4.12. Or at least I've not had a problem rendering it in 3DL.

    You could always use the Public Build (Beta) version and leave the General Release 4.12.x.x installation alone. The PBR Skin sahder will not work in 4.12.x.x, and I don't think Genssi 8.1 will pick up Genesis 8 assets either.

    I understand that Richard.
    You already mentioned that option in a previous conversation we had and I thank you for that.

    The thing is I really value my current setup and stability.
    I just really want to use some of the new 8.1 characters without changing anything else.

    I thought that someone had figured out a way to do this. Am I the only one still using 4.12? I kind of doubt it.

    No it doesn't, G8.1 needs DS 4.15 to load the G8 morphs

    Thank you. Unfortunately 3DL doesn't quite cut it for the line of work I'm doing.

    Why would that stop you using the beta alongside the 4.12 General Release?
