G9 to G8 Conversions

For the eyes, the easiest method for me is to use InTheFlesh's dev kit for Genesis 8. There is a tool included to isolate the eyes.

Apply the tool to your Genesis 8 model.

Import your morph and use attenuate in the process. With the tool in use, it will apply the morph to the eyes only at the default strength of 1. So set the strength to -1 so it affects everything else.

Once imported, the eyes will need adjusting. Then you will need to export a new morph.

You can then import your new morph with unaffected eyes and continue the saving process.

I was just looking at RSSY store & was reminded they did do a male & female version of G8 - G3 Character Converters.

As we haven't seen G9 - G8 character converters yet, I think we can take it now that it won't happen from official sources anyway.

3000 points to anyone willing to convert Henry G9 to G8 (https://zonegfx.com/henry-for-genesis-9/).

I've put up a request for this, but it was filled incorrectly.

I would very much appreciate this.

[astralmess]

The offer is still up.

I would do the conversion myself, but for whatever reason, I don't have the option to import .obj, so I'm really just stuck on converting.

If 3000 seems low, please name your price.

I haven't done too many G9 to G8 conversions. I've mainly just been using clones to convert and fit any G9 clothes to G8 figures:

Doing this only once has enabled me to fit any G9 clothing and accessories to G8
And if I don't want to trigger auto-fit to break the morphs I've been using this:

same principla, just putting G8 in the G9 pose.

As for converting textures I've only done 1-2 conversion and they haven't been seamless. I've used Wrap 4D for it and I can get things transferred over for the most part, but there are still noticable seems on the textures in some parts.

TBH I am more interested in the head & body morphs.

Richard's G9 G8F Clothing Clone works very well for clothes & hair.

I've also used this for converting G9 shapes to G8.

From my perspective, if the G9 bloat has to be installed to do it,it severely diminishes the benefits of the excercise.

OK This has popped up.

Now I am not sure from reading the blurb,

Does this mean you would be able to load a G9 head / body / character morph directly onto G8F prepared with this morph?

@Eelgoo I haven't tested the product but from what I can read in the description, he (?) has deliberately made the product as to NOT being able to only use the G9 head morph....!?

As I understand, you can either get BOTH head and body morph, OR, the body morph ONLY. It's sort of the worst of two worlds. Why wouldn't he include a head morph only option is beyond strange. Could it be pressure from DAZ even if it is not sold there?

@chonakz

Well, in that case it might be a fair way nearer then.

I might get that & try it.

Thanks.

[eelgoo]

OK I read a bit more on it.

PERFECT G9 CLONE FBM
PERFECT G9 CLONE BODY ONLY

Once again, I think it isn't a G9 - G8F Character Converter, because the nearest clone listed is the FBM clone. Does that include the head?
