Is there backwards compatible genesis 3 to genesis 2 texture and morphs?

Sounds stupid as hell the way I worded this but I was wondering if there was any way I could convert genesis 3 morphs and skins to genesis 2

I use Poser but there's a character I've always loved and for g3 and I was wondering if I could use something like GenX to convert his face at least and then something for the skin...is it possible?

    You can use this for the skins: https://www.daz3d.com/genesis-3-uvs-for-genesis-2-male-s

    As for GenX, I don't know, you'd have to try it if you own it. On the product page it says: "This add-on extends Genesis Generation X2 (GenX2) to the world of Genesis 3. Now, it's possible to transfer morphs from Genesis, Genesis 2, and supported Poser figures to Genesis 3 Male and Female. In addition, morphs may be transferred from Genesis 3 to Genesis and Genesis 2 or between the Male and Female version of Genesis 3. Facial expression joints of Genesis 3 are adjusted to the transferred morph if required."

    You'll need the full feature, though:

    Also, keep an eye on the REAdme: http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/32599/start

    I have G3 UVs for G2 and I like it (however to save a G2 character with G3 textures you have to save it as a Scene Subset instead of as a Character Preset  - which is fine, it works well - just different then the way I usually save characters and took some getting used to). :)

    I've tried transferring character morphs from G3 to G2 via GenX2 and haven't had any luck - but I suspect that's because I have G3 saved to a different hard drive as G2 (I think they are all supposed to be saved to the same hard drive as GenX2). 

    Here's Stephanie 6 with Victoria 7's mats (via the Cayman Studios product):

    It seems to work best if you first save the Genesis 3 mats as a "Material Preset" and then the mats apply much easier to Genesis 2.
