No that's for clothing conversion.
There's no product for textures yet AFAIK.
It is possible to do with (a somewhat expensive) exterior software. I wrapped the Genesis 9 normal detail maps to Genesis 8, and they work well.
I was working on a method that could leverage Cayman Studios Legacy UV products for G9 to permanently convert textures between G8 and G9 in either direction (without requiring any exterior software*), but unfortunately I came across a product issue in the process that, while it's not strictly a problem for my method, at least needs to be looked at and if they do any fix for it it would require me to update my method to match any geometry changes. And CS have yet to get back to me about that (despite putting in the report over a month ago).
* Although I'll point out it doesn't need expensive software. It can be done with Blender, although it's a bit tedious.
I have just finished a "Genesis 9 UVs for Genesis 8 Female" product and will submit it shortly.
Matt, I don't know to what issue you are alluding. If you could say what it is here in this thread or in the commercial thread, or alternatively message me, I will try to address it.
