Batch Convert Gen4 Poses to .DUF Format issues

I have just completed my first batch conversions of V4 Pose set.
I like the fact the program does the a lot of the work for you and even copies the original thumbnails as well.
The Conversion work great for the Full Body Poses.
I was the Partial Body poses, which were the issue.
The posed part was saved correctly, but the rest of the body was saved in the Zero Pose.

Below is an example of the issue.
The Left side is the Full Body pose, on the Right side I added a Right Arm Pose.
Notice the rest of the body was set to the Zero pose.

I also noticed this does not convert fc2 files.

Even with the issues this is a great for in converting poses, so they can by use with Pose Builder for Victoria 4.2 and Michael 4.

    It can't convert fc files because those are morphs, not poses. GenX can do that.

    Thanks Forgot that little fact.

    After a little more investigation, I found DraagonStorm did not Compress the Files. (Thank you very much for that)

    So the Solution:
    Opening the files i your favorite Text Editor and removing all the references to what you don't want Posed.
    This will also drop the size of the files.
    Full Body Poses are around 37K
    Eye Poses are less than 1K
    Arm Poses around 12K (lot's of finger joints)
    Leg poses around 3K (No toe joints, or very few)

    Once you have it done you could then use the Batch Compression tool built into DAZ Studio to Compress the files, for more space savings and faster loading from your drive.

    I decided I was doing the conversions all wrong, but couldn't find any way to stop it.  Next time I try, I won't just let it convert my whole Runtime/libraries folder.

    Hi diogenese19348 ,

    Sorry for digin up a 10 month old thread, but I am wanting to find out how to use GenX to transfer expressions. I have completed the transfer, but the created files don't work. Any ideas on what might be the problem?

    Cheers, Glenn
