sharecg has now vanished.
Would you be able to upload that tool you mentioned, please?
Thanks.

Not beating the drum for G9 here, I haven't used it but hear bad things...
If you're dead set on manual install, and you HATE "uninstalling" because of the pain factor, try this analgesic:
Simply keep your generations, categories, test subjects, etc. in separate libraries. It's simple to make a "quarantine" library and add it to Daz's search path. If you hate it and want it gone, it's a simple matter of removing the library from the path. You could actually make a separate library for every product, but that might get cumbersome on its own... but testing out a new product, it just makes sense. When you're satisfied it should be a permanent addition to your runtime, move that library's contents to your main library, whichever one that is.
And converters & converted assets are the work of angels, always welcome here!
Set up separate content libraries is probably the easiest way. Content3, Content8, content9. Just dump everything into each. I started testing characters this way and if I didn't like them I could delete all their files with a click.
Lots of talk about how great 9 is but I've yet to see anyone post evidence.
It's been a year and I'm wondering how this is going. I haven't bothered because few, if any, characters are worth the trouble. This one however, is the only truly original and attractive character I've seen in years....

I'm only interested in a head morph since there's plenty of appropriate body morphs and textures. I'll share the resultant conversion if it's successful.
Thanks!It's as easy to do the body as the head. Should be easy enough to do the head, body and expressions too.
Presume she's on the blog in G9?If you are interested in doing them there are a number of conversion requests active. 🙂
Well I am chronically low on points! 😉
There's a long list on the first page,will see about a couple.
I've a lot on the go at the moment though so might take a little while. Unfortunately I don't have a handy script to run so it's all manual.9 to 8 is more of a pain because of the eyes/mouth but doable.
Body is easy, head takes a bit of work.Expression morphs should be ok once the head is sorted.
Jcm/CBS morphs usually convert ok, but hips and shoulders don't normally work the same without some resculpting (because of the pita G9 topology).I honestly CBA with the skins, I find that bit more painful than the morphs.
I know I've got Sepideh and Sheena in my library - if they're still wanted I'll do them - and will see about Dakota
That sounds promising.
With the requests I started I will be able to supply the donor G9 files if needed.
Personally, I am not so bothered about the skins, but that may not hold true with all request contributors :0/
🙂
Well shite,vwas just putting the finishing touches on Sepideh before I noticed she's already been done and posted to the blog... Hadn't seen a mention here!
Sheena it is so...
