Genesis 8 to 9 poses, clothing, props?

vonHobovonHobo Posts: 1,682

So I finally purchased a couple Genesis 9 figures.

But most of the content I own is for G8, so ...

1. The clothes from Genesis 8 seem to autofit nicely to G9, so no problem there.

2. For the G8 poses, which I have so many, I purchased the G3/G8 to G9 Pose Converter. Works really well. So no problem there either.

3. The only thing that doesn't want to cooperate is the props, like a pose where the figure is holding a prop like a book or a gun. Do I need to move the props into position manually??

Any help with item 3 or other insights would be greatly appreciated.

    There has never been a converter for those types of items for any generation as far as I remember. I usually just unselect the figure, then load the prop and position into place and then parent and save it to the library for later use.

    That's what I thought. Just wanted a reality check. Thank you.

    At least the clothing fits nicely. I can deal with the props, although it is a bit of extra time to position them and can be quite frustrating.

    RiversoftArt ever developed a series of Props and Poses Converters but has not yet provided one for G9. So for the time being, just manually adjust parenting and position of a Prop, then convert the Pose with that script.

    There is a problem with some dresses; not every item will autofit correctly.

    Thank you.

    Same here - first G9 purchases too and I also bought the pose converter. My main disappointment is that G8 skins don't work on G9 and the workarounds to get them to "work" seem so cumbersome.
