Can someone test this old pose set?

Got anyone this old Pose set, maybe some of the Staff have access to it? it say it require K4, so will the pose have a script which say NO? Like I had the problem with the Armchair Poses, just a while ago posted here.

I think it will require some adjustments, because it did not even used Gen1 :/

It's sad, because the poses looks great (even when the promo pics are very ugly and so... dirty styled).

    If you don't have K4 you should be able to use the poses for the other characters anyway, but most of them will look odd without K4, that's probably why it says "K4 required".

    In any case, you can always return the product if it doesn't work for you.

    I have some pose converter but I think just from G3 to G8, so not sure if I can fix it.. and Pose Fusion and some other Pose tool.

    Ideally you should have this converter: https://www.daz3d.com/v4-pose-converter-for-genesis-and-genesis-2-female-s

    Even though the product says V4, it also works on M4 and K4 as well, and even the Generation 3 figures because they all use the same bone structure. Like with any conversion the poses will need tweaking afterwards.

    To get from G2F to G3 or G8 there are other converters in this store, or you can use this free one: https://www.sharecg.com/v/89846/browse/8/Script/Daz3d-Pose-Converter-Standalone

    There is also a free converter to get V4 (and M4,K4) to Genesis, although I have never used it, as I have all the Zev0 ones. Here is the link: https://www.sharecg.com/v/60135/browse/21/DAZ-Studio/Genesis-V4-pose-adjust-script

    Oh, you want to convert them, I thought you wanted to use them with the characters they're made for, or with Genesis 1.  But it looks like Havos has solved that part of it.

    Noo, I dont use old chars, they are horrible, I used one time G3 and the Powerpose Menue is already so.. old and unuseable, that I hated it.

    @Havos, so I would have to double/triple convert it... uff... I think I ignore the product, that is it not worth.

    I think about creating an "Event" (if Richard allow it) for a Family Friendly Pose Setupt thing.

    I think they will work with genesis and a bit of tweaking. They are definitely convertable if you want to spend the time doing it. I have converted many old m4 sets by muscleman  to gen 8. At some point you have to decide if the time spent is worth it.

    Well, if I would have to buy first an old Converter which I use just 1-2x then it would it not be worth :/

    You would need to at least double convert to get the poses onto G8. I have converted a lot of Generation 4 poses to Genesis 8, and they work well, although naturally need tweaking to get right. Whilst any tweaking takes time, if is still a lot quickler than constructing the pose from scratch.

    Well i remember this was my first pose which i made self from zero and... hell it did take like 30minutes, because I was sooo new to daz3d and I didnt knowed the tools, I used only the parameters tab xD

     

    And this made I after I had more skill:

    The diaper was a bit more work, because it was only visible in iray and the cloth did go a lot through the hand :)

    That's great! The poses look quite natural. And at first glance, it looks almost like a photo. Nicely done!

    There are a few family and bonding type of poses in the store for Genesis 8, if you're looking for some for that particular figure. 

    Here are a few:

    https://www.daz3d.com/z-picnic-time-props-and-poses-for-genesis-3-and-8

    There's likely more in the store.

    Thanks for the feedback to my pose ^_^ :)

    I try to grab all I can find, it is just a big time saver when they are already atleast a bit preadjusted, the finetuning have I always to do by myself, because different child sizes and maybe clothes, like a Dress who is fluffy could move through a hand, so it doesnt have to fit perfect, but the poses also give inspiration how I could design a scene.

    Picnic time looks okay, but ... my "In Love" Poses from some other bundles does fulfill that few poses already. Family Photo poses doesnt work for me, because I make very less "Photos", I make scenes, where I let the people take a look in, from different cameras.
