Salvage V4/M4 content with Genesis 3 figures

Hello guys (and gals),

I'm wondering if there is a way, a product, that will allow me to easily salvage all the V4/M4 content I have got, if I were to acquire, and start to work with Genesis 3 male and female?

By salvaging I mean use all the content I have on the Genesis 3 figures. 

I mean mostly skin textures, hair, clothes and poses (hands too). 

(Software is Daz Studio 4.8)

Thank you

    For clothes, you can't beat the "Wear Them All"  products for G3F and G3M. I use these a lot and they work well- not just on clothing but on hair too. They allow you to use M4, V4, G1, and G2 items, both male and female. Very versatile. 

    For skins, Cayman Studios just came out with M4 UVs for G3M. You can find the V4 version over on Renderosity in his store there. There are also versions of this that bring M4 and V4 over to G2. Just do a search for UVs and you'll find quite a few.

    Poses can be converted, but there is no direct convertor from M4 and V4 to G3 yet. You'll have to convert from M4 or V4 to G2 and then from G2 to G3. 

    Can't bring morphs over yet (that I know of), but I've only been using DAZ for a few months. At this point it's beyond me and I've tried to bring head morphs from M4 to G2M and V4 to G2F through GenX2 but couldn't get them to show up. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but will revisit it later.

    I've attached a test render (nothing special). This is Gianni 7 in an M4 skin (Jayden), wearing Lord of the Snow for M4 as well as Alex hair (the M4 version, not G3M version).

    Here's one more. This is a 3DL render of G3M and a G3F in the (retextured) M4 firefighter outfit using Wear Them All.

    Thank you Llynara.

    I'll try the Wear Them All product. 

    Seems like Jaime Lanister took the black (and dyed his hair to fit the role) :)

    He does kind of look like Jamie there. I could always change the hair and clothing colors. It's fun to play around with this stuff.

    By the way- Wear Them All occasionally goes on sale, so it's good to hit it when you can get a discount and/or if you're a Platinum Club user, you can use your monthly coupon.

    Here you go- Gianni 7 in default M4 (Luka) skin with blond Alex hair (for G3M this time), wearing Old World Knight for G2M with Sir Robin textures. Not quite a match, but Jaime-like. He has some pretty cool looking armor on the show. I'm sure there's something closer somewhere, but I couldn't find one at the moment.
