Three pose converters

Has anyone  compared RiverSoft Art’s "Ultimate Pose Converter Bundle for Genesis 9" to Zev0's & bitwelder's "Genesis 9 Pose Converter Bundle" to ManFriday's & Protozoon's "Pose Companion for Genesis 9"?

I know they do different conversions of different figure versions, but how do they compare where they overlap in function?
Thanks.

    One Major difference is that Riversoft Art's Bone Minions can be used for animations, which is why I buy them.

    Before spending money on a converter, try one of the free ones. I like the one by n_alexandru. You can find it on Renderosity freebies, too. https://www.renderosity.com/freestuff/items/93661/genesis-1239-pose-converter-for-genesis-8?AID=4737

    In most cases freebie converters will be good enough... but I still share with you my experience with these 3 "conveters" ( Bone Minion, Zev0, ManFriday )

    Bone Minion - as Dartanbeck mentioned, a plus of it is that it can convert animations. It's the slowest one in terms of static pose conversion, and there's a conflict in between Bone Minion and dForce Companion (from ManFriday), error pops up...
    Zev0 - it can convert both G3 / G8 poses to G9, with more options like "to Floor", "Turn on limits" and "Mirror Pose", and the conversion is pretty fast.
    ManFriday - can only convert G8 - G9, no other option except for "reminding turn limites on/off"... but it's the fastest one among three.

    If you don't play with animation conversion and wanna buy a good converter, personally recommend Zev0's converter, which is cheaper as well, at least now...

    Merry Christmas !

    Wahaha~ I should've said let's swing and animate! laugh

    Many thanks! I will.  Merry Christmas to you and your family !heart

  • Thanks for all the info! I love these forums. I use DAZ Studio to both render images as reference for paintings and to create cartoons, so animation does matter.

    Thanks again.
