Simple question I could test out myself, but I'm not at my computer and want to make a purchase. Can I use G2 textures on G1? Thanks :)

    Pretty sure that would be a no....

    It would depend on the UV set used - the defaults for G2F and G2M are V5 and M5 respectively, so if you have Victoria 5 and Michael 5 for Genesis the UVs should work. However the materials presets wouldn't work so you would need to set those up manually (or copy from the Genesis 2 figure).

    Basically I'm trying to figure out if I could us a G2 monster texture on Genesis 1. I do have Victoria and Michael 5...  And how do I "copy" materials from the G2 figures? Thanks.

    It still depends on which UV set the monster texture uses, but copy from selected surface and paste to selected surfaces are in the Edit>Copy/Paste sub-menus - you do need to apply the base shader first, if it is different.

    Ok, thanks. I ended up not getting the G2 products and am getting instead a bunch of V4/M4 RAW creatures today so I can use them in Poser and the textures on Genesis in DS and can add the morphs if I need them with GenX, but I like creating my own morphs, and Genesis 1 comes with a lot of creature varieties. :)
