Character Transfer

Hey all,

I am wanting to morph transfer & material transfer Joe Quick's crazy slick:

The Nutcracker Prince Mega Bundle | Daz 3D

from Genesis 8.1 to Genesis 9, but I think it may be the most complex DAZ character ever modeled in the store, at least to my unknowlegeable eyes and it may not work.

Has anyone tried this? What worked? What didn't? 

I have Zev0's Shape Rigger Plus Genesis 9 Edition | Daz 3D which I admit I've yet to try.

I did use an earlier freebie that worked quite well actually on 3D Universe's Toon Generations 2 product mega bundle that transfered morphs from Genesis 3 to Genesis 8 on the old sharecg.com and I also have done the morph transfer process a few times directly in DAZ Studio 4.5 using SickleYield's instructions.

Thanks.

    I'm good with transferring things, but I wouldn't even touch this.

    With grafts, hinged joints and all of that, this would be an absolute nightmare, and you would be unlikely to get any benefit out of using G9 anyway.

    I'm not entirely kidding when I say it would probably be simpler to start from scratch.

    The Nutcracker is a combination of morphs for the head and several rigged geografts to replace parts of the body, hands and feet. So no, you can't convert it to G9 with just morph and material transfer.

    I thought so, but thought I'd ask anyway, it's so well done. I read the description and it's very involved! 

    Thanks, I will find another way to do what I need done.
