Can the products in Hybrid Grunge Bundle be used on Genesis 1, 2, and 3 figures and clothing?

I would like to know if the products in the Hybrid Grunge Bundle for DAZ Studio can be used on Genesis 1, 2, and 3 figures and clothing. If this is true and if you have any renders of this, could you please post them here?

Also, how do those products work? Can they be positioned and scaled on any surface?

    I know rag-erator and gore-dom can be used on anything so I'm guessing the others can as well.

    What it does is add a 2nd layer to the texture material and place the new texture on top of that to "combine" the original texture with the Grunge texture.

    These shaders are unrelated to the figures clothing they are used on, and should work just fine, assuming they work fine in DS4, as they are old and were originally written for DS3. Another thing to remember is that they are 3Delight shaders, and so may not work the same way in iRay.

    I started with 4.6 I believe and have the 2 products I mentioned above :)

    They work just fine in 4.6 and 4.8

    There are occasions where an object that has no texture but uses a solid color instead messes up, but then you just need to go into the LIE for the diffuse setting and reset the color in there.

    I've also had no issues as of yet (knock on wood) using Iray.

    I have the bundle and I can recommend it even though I haven't used Gore-Dom or Rust-Icator yet.

    In this render I've used Grime-inizer on G3M clothing and in the attached image (it's a wip so not finished yet) I've used it on the skin of the G3F character and the hat (that I think is for Genesis). Both renders are Iray. Haven't got the grime-inizer to work on hair though. I've also used rag-erator succesfully in Iray.

     I don't know about scaling and positioning, but I suppose if you know what you're doing it would be possible. Sadly, I don't know what I'm doing most of the time...

    I only have Gore-dom. I'll note that while it doesn't work great out of the box for Iray, with a small amount of tweaking you can get cool effects.

    For example, you can take blood spatter maps and copy them to a geo shell and make a very realistically wet spatter surface.

    Or slime.

    The slime on the slug creature is Gore-dom based.
