Daz Converting G3 to G8

[coffeeaddicted]

So, here i am, trying to convert Olympia from Gen3 to Gen8. Why? Because Gen8 look very different.

Now, i tried Riversoft. Sadly, no matter what i want to select, it says, no character preset. Huh?
Then i tried Xtransfer. At 73% it crashes.

Ok, now i just wanted to load Gen8 version and this came up.
A version of Clive Barkers twisted phantasy from hell.

lol



and no, just rewriting the character file didn't solve this. Not sure what happened. Got to investigate. Gen3 works fine.

I have a G3 to G8 setup, it allows for conversion of the non HD morphs, and projection of all morphs including correctives onto G8.



Show the Hidden clones and you can turn your G8 into G2 female or G2 Male



I want to say it took my Intel Core i7-13700K about 30 minute to do the math back when I did it.

Got to tell you.
My experience was bad converting.
Xtransfer is easier to use than Riversoft but for some reason it didn't work out.
The only reason i wanted to do that was so i could convert Olympia to Gen8. Olympia 8 looks so much different. Really a shame. I also tried the cheap way, just to save the shaping of the character but that didn't work either. It didn't look the same.

What setup do you use?

Select figure>parameter tab>Morph>push loaded morph to 100%



Figure still selected, joint tool editor selected, adjust rigging to shape :



Parameter, select right click morh, edit mode :

That is increadible.
Wow...
Now i am wondering why saving a shape did not work though. Shouldn't it save any shape?
But ok, this is what i will do in the future.

Thank you so much for sharing.

If your interested in the converter I used DM me, DAZ hit multiple sites I was on with DMCA's for reverse engineering so....

This did indeed work.
Makes me wonder why anyone would need tools like xtransfer.


left G3, right G8

That's ok but thank you so much. If i need it i know where to knock.
Now i know how to convert it in an easy way without having to rely on some tool (that may not work).

Oh no.....

So that file worked but it seems not like posing.
I imported the obj with morph loader pro.
They mostly disfigured.
So now, what did i wrong or is there a step missing?
I really like to understand what my error is. Because it seems a easy and nice solution to converting an old character over to the current generation.

I loaded Gen8 and applied the morph but then this happens when i loaded a pose. They eyes, when using powerpose, will actually pop out. Looks actually funny.

Here is a sample

Redo this part then save your figure as scene subset (preferably naked in A pose), use that save to load/merge your figure.

Yes, i did.
Man, i feel bad. But it's not in vain. I still like to convert Ryan.
There aren't so many certain villains on G8.
I tested that Olympia. Looks good though she is a little taller than the original one. Has no height slider.
