Hello! Still learning here about Daz! Thanks for all the info!
Does Ginger for Genesis 2 need Stephanie 6 to work? In the info of ginger it says "Ginger is a high quality character for Stephanie 6, a premier 3D model" but in the information it doesn't say Stephanie 6 is required... In contrast with
FW Alfred HD for Michael 6 that says in the information that Miachel 6 is required. Whats the difference?

I see Stephanie 6 listed as required. The character uses the Stephanie 6 morph, so it won't look the same without Stephanie 6. The texture doesn't require Stephanie 6.
Ginger uses Stephanie dialed to 0.5, below is what she looks like without Stephanie, so still pretty cute, imho.
She requires Stephanie 6 to match the shape she has in the promo pictures. But it is not absolute requirement. As Havos posted, you can still use the figure without it, she will just look a bit different without the Stephanie 6 morphs. The skin will work on any Genesis 2 female shape you create, too.
This applies to many other figures in the store that have requirements. They will all generally function this way. So Alfred 6 will be like that as well.
The one thing to remember is that there ARE some characters that require a specific base's UVs as well as the morphs. This isn't a big problem with Genesis 3, where the majority of the PA generated female characters have used the base G3F and G3M UVs, with a handfull using V7, but with Genesis and early Genesis 2 there are a number of characters that require a UV set other than the base figure or Victoria/Michael.
They are very few in number, and even back then normally only happened with PA characters that appeared in the corresponding characters starter/pro bundles. The exception is M5 and V5, where there were a lot of characters that used them, but these uvs where bundled into Genesis 2 base, so should be available to all.
Available for use on Genesis 2, you would still need to buy M5/V5 to use them on Genesis. (or else use Map Transfer).
