Use poses for G3 with G8

Erik Heyninck

I purchased some really good poses - Lend Her Grace by Khory, inspired by the Pre-Raphaelites - but they are for G3.
I know it's possible to use them with G8 - the T vs the 'A' pose - but it is best to purchase a script or some plugin.

Is there one you would or could recommend?

thanks!

You could try this free convertor: https://www.deviantart.com/agentunawares/art/G3F-to-G8F-World-s-Greatest-Pose-Converter-709591348 (there is a male version too)

Thanks. I downloaded both, and I suppose they are exactly what I am looking for.

Agent Unawares converter works well and is easy to apply.

Or you can use this converter to convert all poses at once, so you won't have to apply it each time: https://www.sharecg.com/v/89846/browse/8/Script/Daz3d-Pose-Converter-Standalone

I use this all the time just for that purpose - https://www.daz3d.com/ultimate-pose-mixer

It also does so much more, such as the on-the-fly ability to lock joints/joint combinations so you can mix poses to your heart's desire...but what I love is the menu interface so you can convert poses on the fly without having to run a separate script.

Funny - I use this a lot for mixing poses and locking body parts but had completely forgotten that it converts from one generation to another. For that I have batch converted lots of G3 (and G2) poses to G8 using that standalone converter suggested by @Hylas (above). I also have the Agent Unawares converter.

I have numerous converters...one from Zev0 and now RSSY's newest props/pose converter and I do like those because it adds everything to Smart Content (poses are one of the few things I do like using Smart Content for...otherwise I'd never find any). But the Pose Mixer's menu-added one-click is amazingly convenient to just load a pose in and *poof* it's converted. Another useful trick I found is that when I manually convert clothing from G3 to G8 (or vice versa), that one-click *poof* is very nice to have for poofing the clothing to the right position before the rigging transfer.
