Gen 8 "backwards compatibility"

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

Only some parts of the body are backwards compatible.  Gravureboxing's boxing gloves are a major part of my commission business, but when I try to fit them to the figure, they insist on placing ANYWHERE but where the hands are. Worse, once I "Fit To" the character, they hover above her arms and won't change, no matter what I do.  I don't think I'll be getting a lot of use out of the G4 figures if this isn't fixed.

    Some Gen3 boots do not fit, positioned to low. Not good.

    Are you sur you set the source figure correctly? That sounds as if you left it blank, so nothing was moved to account for the move from T pose to A Pose.

    Can you fit G2 and G3 items to the character at the same time?

    Yes, you can mix clothing/hair from the 3 preceding generations.

    Yeah, I set the source figure to G8.  Funny thing-- the gloves worked when I first hit "Fit To", but when DAZ asked me what figure they were meant for and what they were (I picked G3 and "none") THAT's when it screwed up. 

    Funny Thing 2-- Vintage Boxing Outfit works perfectly well with G8. So there's something with Gravureboxing's code?  Maybe?  I'm gropping blindly here.

    I have the same issue with Gravureboxing's gloves using autofit.  It is in the default T position; but won't follow the hands in the new default "arms down" position of V8/G8F.  Ironically enough, the artist published his gloves for G3F, a week before V8/G8F came out.... Anyone with a solution????
