Use V5 Character Without V5?

I'm wondering if it's possible to use a V5 character (http://www.daz3d.com/eri-international-for-v5 specifically) without actually having V5?  Would it work with V6 or G3F?  I like the character, but don't really want to have to buy an older version of Victoria just to support it.

Thanks.

    Some work fine, others look like cast extras for a zombie thriller...maybe one of the PA's involved can give a better answer.  But even if they do work, the 'look' won't be the same.

    Not my particular style of artwork, but it probably works great for others!  hahahaha

    Eri International uses V5 as a base, so V5 is required for the character to look the same as the promos.. You may be able to copy it over with GenX2, but you would probably need the V5 morph for Genesis 2 as well.

    They won't, however, work for G3F as that has a very different UV layout.

    I just did a quick search for a Victoria 5 morph but can't seem to find anything.  Do you know of one and can link it for me?  Much appreciated.

    Made to work with genesis 1 and since it has custom face morphs, you don't need V5, but you might need V5 if it uses the V5 texture UV map instead of the default genesis 1 base one.

    You will need GenX to get it to work with genesis 2 female and it will not work at all with GF3.

    Since genesis 1 base is free with DS, I say go for it. At least the faces will work

    Sorry, it was made with custom morphs that were loaded against V5, so yes, you will need V5.

    As far as V5 morph for Genesis 2, check slosh's store for this product.
