Melanie for V4 For G2F??
Hello friends,
i have a question concerning the "Victoria 4 for Genesis 2 Female" package and the http://www.daz3d.com/victoria-4-for-genesis-2-female
and "Melanie for V4" http://www.daz3d.com/melanie-for-v4
Im using DS 4.6 and tried to make Melanie work for G2F... but she doesnt work at all even not on my V4??
In the description i read i have to replace the pz2 files of the presets with duf.
the scripts dont work.. i located them in my daz library .. poser formats .. and tried to use the mats and shapes on a G2f that i already morphed to V4 shape and used the V4 Uv map on it..
Is there any possibility to make this work? please help me

You will only be able to use the skin mats. The character head and body morphs will only work on the V4.2 base character with V4.2 morphs++. (You can transfer the head and body shape if you have GenX2, the G2 add on for GenX2 and V4.2 with morphs++).
For the skin mats to work on G2F with Victoria 4 for Genesis 2 Female they need to be in DUF format. If you do not own the V4.2 base character, then you can use Genesis 1 to convert the skin mats to DUF format. Apply the skin preset to Genesis 1. Doesn't matter what shape Genesis 1. Then with Genesis 1 selected do Save As -> Material Preset. Give it a name and save all surface zones. Note where you are saving in in the file dialog. It will probably be in DAZ Formats -> My Library -> Presets -> Materials.
Then you should be able to apply the preset you just saved to G2F. If the skin has gaps or does not seem to line up with the body, you may have to manually change the UVs to Victoria 4 in the surface pane. If you use Genesis 1 though, I would guess the UVs will load in correctly and you will not need to change them.
okay thank you very much mark :-)
