Ball Joint Doll to Genesis 8

bigfatface

Hi,

Is there any way to transfer the Ball Joint Doll for Genesis 3 to Genesis 8? The morphs and balls should be easy enough, but the "caps" where the limbs stop and have chunks taken out of them to show the joints I'm not sure about.

Cheers,

Any idea? https://www.daz3d.com/sf-ball-joint-doll-genesis-3-female-s
I'll probably have to return it otherwise.

This product uses geografts, ie conforming items meant to replace a part of the figure. Those are figure specific since they need to share an edge loop with the mesh they connect to.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I wasn't sure how it worked as the caps and ball joints appear in the menu as attachments. Okay, I'll give them a go for the reference images I'm trying to do and if I need more detail then I'll have to return them.

Cheers,

The G2F one has balls on the shoulders, but the G3F one doesn't.  I hope a G8F one brings them back.

In case anyone is still curious, you should be able to adapt the geografts to G8 using the method outlined in this thread.

Curious as to why? G3 is pretty close to G8, what reason do you have to not just use G3? Most clothing, hair and textures are interchangable.

That's what I was thinking. You can even use poses for one on the other & then a G3toG8 or G8toG3 modifier script to adjust for the differences in zero positions. I tend to think of them as Mk1 & Mk2 of the same figure - of course on a vertex/facet level of detail they are not interchangable, but at a general use level they are.

Regards,

Richard
