Hi all!
I have a question regarding the different character types. Are props, poses and clothing labeled say Victoria 4 and/or Micheal 4 useable with say Genesis 3 characters? I'm sure it's been asked before but thanks all the same!
Comments
Props: Yes. A prop is a prop, so a sword made for one character is a sword that can be handled by another. You'll have to do without poses which automatically put that sword in the intended character's hand, but that's no big deal really.
Poses: Not directly, but there are scripts and programs and what-not out there (some of them free) that convert poses intended for one figure to work on another
Clothing: No. But there are products out there that enable you to "auto-fit" older figures' clothes to your desired figure, with varying degrees of success. Shoes are particularly challenging, as the way feet are rigged has changed a lot between generations. Shirts and pants are usually safer bets.
There's a lot of good stuff made for older generations, and it's often on sale at deep discounts, so it's worth learning how to use it on more modern figures.

If I recall correctly, the uvs for V4 are/were in another store, same creator.
