From Victoria 3 to Genesis 2

What products would help me transfer a Victoria 3 model to Genesis 2 level?

Any recommendations regarding textures, UVs, and shapes is much-appreciated.

    Clothing? If so, Crossdresser 4 will take clothing from V3 to Genesis (NOT Genesis 2) and you can use DS to go from there.

    GenX2 with the Genesis 2 and V3 add-ons would work to transfer a V3 morph to G2F.

    For the texture, Texture Converter 2 with V3 and V4 add-ons would enable you to convert the maps to V4 UVs, then with V4 for G2F you can use those converted textures on G2F.

    Thank you! I'll give those items a try.

    So the skin conversion works for me; however, in trying to transfer shape, I've tried loading the V3 figure but it's a poser pzz file that doesn't register. Is there a way to get around this?

    A pzz should be something you apply to the V3 figure. Are you able to get that far?

    I'm able to load and manipulate the MilWom_V3 figure; what I want is to transfer her particular shape to G2F form. I've got the GenX AddOn Gen3 for V3 and M3 but that option doesn't come up when using GenX2.

    I don't get what you're saying about a .pzz. Do you just want to transfer the default V3 shape, or is the difficulty with a specific shape that loads via .pzz? Or GenX seems to offer no V3 options at all?

    When I try to access to the source, I just get the Genesis 1-3 and Victoria 4.2. I'm not trying to transfer the default V3 shape, just a couple of V3 ladies with their particular shapes.

    I may just be overcomplicating things with the pzz mention.

    Have you definitely downloaded and installed the file called GenX2 Addon for V3 and M3, not the GenX (blank) one?

    Odd... When I load GenX2 tab it doesn't seem like it offers options for pre-Genesis figures, but when I Load Figure (the button on the tab) I can pick Aiko 3's cr2, and then I can click Apply Pose and select a character pz2 or p2z. It seems to recognize what Aiko is once I select the file. I'm not sure how to confirm that the pose file loaded with any effect...

    I have both and just tried uninstalling both to reinstall just the GenX2 add-on. V3 still doesn't show up among the source figures.

    I think that's how it works. You have to click Load Figure and pick V3's .cr2. Then it should show up under Source.

    Update: I've been able to transfer the body morphs using Victoria 3 SAE source and applying all head and body morphs. I chose to "Get Values from Figure in Scene", then clicked the usual "on for all non-zero values".

    The problem now is transferring head morphs as they don't register on GenX. There is no morph apply to drag to GenX, just a custom slider on the V3 figure.
