If it's in the store, I can't find it.
I want to convert male wizard poses from Genesis to (prefereably) G3M. Is there anything that does that? Also, why aren't there any pose converters for the guys? Everything is for females.

I think Genesis poses will work for G2 without conversion(?). Zev0 and DraagonStorm have pose converters to go from V4 to Genesis, G2 and a converter to go from G2 to G3. So to get to G3, youll have to convert a pose to G2 and then convert that to G3. Youll still have to tweak the G3 conversion a little bit, but it works good enough.
Thanks. I have the V4->Genesis/G2F and the G2F->G3F, so I can try. But there is nothing for the males (grrrrr), and the poses I want to convert are for Genesis Male. Guess they'll have wonky arms and hands that will have to be fixed. Appreciate the information!
Remember, Genesis is a unisex figure so its poses should transfer equally well (or poorly, depending on your perspective) to both G2M and G2F. Many Genesis poses I've tried can be used directly on G2F and G2M with almost no manual reposing on my end. Regarding transfering to G3M, on the other hand you might want to try this freebie script:

Yes it says "G3F" but I find that in general poses made for G3F can be used on G3M (and vice versa). Hands are going to give you grief as hand poses don't transfer well to G3 at all. You'll have to manually repose the hands, more often than not.
I hope that helps!
I have it dl, and thanks so much for the link!
I actually didn't need to convert anything from Genesis to a newer figure til I wanted to use something this week and discovered there wasn't a converter, but with all the amazing help, I don't feel so bad about it now!
Oh, jeez... I totally spaced that out didnt I? Your right, there is nothing for the G2/3 males. Thats odd...
Sadly, I don't have the same experience. I bought some dance poses for G3F and had to rework them rather extensivily to have them work for G3M. Too many other poses I own for G3F can't be used easily for G3M. As you said hands are off but also limbs and torso/waist.
Yep, odd indeed.
I use a fair amount of males, so for me, it would be nice to have.
I have both those products aswell, and they work just as well on the male figures. Naturally the pose is not an exact fit (this is also true with the female figures), but they never are after conversion, however they are pretty close.
Thanks!
