Skin Batch Converter and Morph Transfer for Generation4,Gn,Gn2 to Gn3?
Fortunately, there are corresponding converter and Morph tools for the Generation 4, Genesis and Genesis 2 Generation, which I also all possess. But why is it, after nearly one year after the release of Genesis 3, that there is still no Skin Batch Converter and Morph's transmission tools for the Genesis 3 generation? I want to convert a Victoria 4 Character with skins to the Genesis 3 Female and have been sitting there for days without success. It does not really matter anymore, does it? It is understandable that you want to use characters, dresses, morphs, skins, etc. from previous generations with the current genesis generation and DAZ Studio version - why is not this supported by DAZ and offered the necessary tools with the release of new figures .
I do not always buy new things when I have to throw older things into the garbage or sitting for days and hours to convert something from one to the other generation..

Converters have been available for quite a while, actually...
For morph transfer, GenX has an add-on for Genesis 3: http://www.daz3d.com/genx2-addon-for-genesis-3
For textures you can't simply have alternate UVs like for previous figures due to tech limitations, but you have various options available:
- convert the textures themselves with texture transformer:
Base program: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/blacksmith3ds-texture-transformer/101170/
V4 to G3F add-on: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/v4-to-g3f-add-on-pack-for-texture-transformer/112851/
- use cayman studios' "legacy UVs" packs (which use alternate UVs combined with geografts):
V4 to G3F https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/legacy-uvs-for-genesis-3-v4/113767/
G2F to G3F: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/legacy-uvs-for-genesis-3-g2f/113284/
And various others in their store here: http://www.daz3d.com/cayman-studios
And of course for clothes you have the Wear them all products for clones: http://www.daz3d.com/wear-them-all-autofitting-clones-and-clothing-smoothers-for-genesis-3-female-s
To combine with SY Ultra templates: http://www.daz3d.com/sy-ultra-templates-for-genesis-3-female-s
Thank you for your answer. I know some of these tools, some I have. But it doesn't work very good and fast for me. I tried to convert a V4 skin to Genesis 3 for 2 days, because it doesn't work. I have the V4 Skin Batch Converter, this is a very good tool and I had all my needed files converted to duf-files for Gn2F in a very fast time. But the convert from Gn2 to Gn3 was really bad! I would wish a tool like the Skin batch converter, which does its work automatically and all needed files in one or two steps. But thank you for your information with all the links.
