G3 UVs for Genesis

Joltrast

Is there any way to use G3 textures on Genesis? I know it's possible to UV map older textures across to newer models but can it be done in reverse? I looked at Cayman's stuff, but they only do that with G2, G3 and G8. Nothing for Genesis, I assume there's a reason for this.

I have some nice Genesis morphs that I'd like to use with G3F and I thought I could get around that by using G3F textures on Genesis. Can it be done?

 

Thanks!

You can use GenX2 with the G3 add on to transfer the Genesis morphs to G3F.  Note that you must get G2 as a bridge between G1 and G3. 

Or you can transfer manually with Redz' tutorials on this thread:

I personally prefer the GenX2 method because the script involves fewer steps and it creates tidy icons and places them where you specify.  Plus there is maintenance - you can rename and delete morphs as well. 

I have lots of G1 characters - they are some of the best.
