Can you use V5 elite textures on V4.2?

Will V5 elite textures work fine on V4.2 ? I know V4 textures work on V5, but does it also work backwards?

Thanks

    I can't see how they would really. The V4 textures work on Genesis because it is UV Mapped for V4, M4 and K4, as well as the Genesis shape.

    I don;t have the V5 elite texture, but I doubt if it has been mapped for V4, hopefully someone will know for sure.

    I used the Map Transfer utility in DS to convert several V5 textures to V4, most recently Elite V5 Nichole

    Could you (or someone) point me to a good tutorial on how to do this, please. I found a couple but they mention having to do it in stages or by surface group or something similar. I'm not sure I know what all these groups and regions are (in fact, I'm sure I don't).

    It's not that hard, you just drag what material zones you want into new template

    OK, thanks. I just had the impression from elsewhere that it was more involved than that.
