Update on June 18, 2014:
The 66% upgrade pricing for Genesis Generation X2 will end on August 15th, 2014. If you own version 1 of Genesis Generation X and intend to get version 2, please do so before the upgrade coupon expires on August 15th, 2014.
======================
Update on March 20, 2014:
Version 2.0.1.0 of Genesis Generation X2 is now available for download in the Product Library and DIM. It is highly recommended to install this update. It fixes the possible crash and the file read problem that were reported in the forum. In addition, it has new morph list search options for groups and values (including search for non-zero values). See the updated manual for more details about the update.
======================
Genesis Generation X2 (or short GenX2) - the new version of the morph transfer plugin for DAZ Studio - has been released to the DAZ 3D store. In addition, the GenX2 AddOn for Genesis 2 is also available now to extend GenX2 for transferring morphs to, from, and between Genesis 2 Female and Male. Finally, all existing add-ons for Genesis Generation X have been updated and improved to work with GenX2.
You will find the new products in the DAZ 3D store here:
* Genesis Generation X2
* GenX2 AddOn for Genesis 2
Both products have an introductory discount of 20% off. (Because it's March Madness, you get twice the introductory discount than it was for the initial version.)
Customers who own the previous version of Genesis Generation X (either full version or upgrade from Gen4), will get a coupon for an additional 66% off automatically at check out, resulting in 72.8% off together with introductory pricing.
The manuals for both products can be downloaded from my web site:
* Genesis Generation X2
* GenX2 AddOn for Genesis 2
(The pages in the DAZ Documentation Wiki seem to be missing at the moment.)
****************************************
Genesis Generation X2 offers the following features:
* Morph transfer from legacy figures (Poser) to TriAx figures (Genesis)
* NEW Morph transfer between different versions of Genesis
* NEW Direct morph transfer between morph-compatible versions of Genesis (including HD morphs)
* NEW Morph transfer from morph-compatible Poser figures without clone morph
* NEW Clone morphs are turned into full working full body and head only morphs with adjusted joints if required
* Translation of morph poses and expressions (Poser format) into shaping presets for transferred morphs
* NEW Translation of shaping and properties presets (DSON format) into shaping presets for transferred morphs
* Different transfer modes for separate morphs, merged morph, presets, and controllers
* NEW Improved transfer quality
* NEW Automatic corrections for differences in rigging
* Included support for generation 4 figures (Victoria 4, Michael 4, Kids 4) and Genesis (version 1)
* Support for additional figures by add-ons sold separately
* NEW Support for Genesis 2 Female and Male (requires GenX2 AddOn for Genesis 2)
****************************************
GenX2 AddOn for Genesis 2 offers the following features:
* Morph transfer from Genesis to Genesis 2 Female or Male
* Morph transfer from Genesis 2 Female or Male to Genesis
* Morph conversion from Genesis 2 Female to Male and vice versa (includes HD morphs)
* Morph transfer from Victoria 4, Michael 4, and Kids 4 to Genesis 2 Female or Male
* Morph transfer from generation 3 figures to Genesis 2 Female or Male (requires separate add-ons)
Morphs transferred from Victoria 4 or Michael 4 will work with any of the following base shapes:
* V4 morph in Generation 4 Legacy Shapes for Genesis 2 Female(s) by Slosh
* M4 morph in Generation 4 Legacy Shapes for Genesis 2 Male(s) by Slosh
* V4 and M4 morphs in V4 and M4 Shapes for Genesis transferred from Genesis to Genesis 2
* V4 and M4 clone morphs auto-converted by GenX2
* Michael 4 for Genesis 2 Male by Slosh (should work, but I haven't tested)
* Victoria 4 for Genesis 2 Female by MallenLane (should work, but I haven't tested)
Note: To transfer morphs from Poser figures to Genesis 2, Genesis 1 has to be installed as well, because the clone morphs are available for Genesis 1 only.
Note: To use V4 or M4 textures with Genesis 2, you need an according UV mapping. To apply material poses or scripts for V4 or M4 to Genesis 2, you need to adjust the material names, which can be done with my free script Generation 4 to Genesis 2 Material Converter.
****************************************
Still available are the following add-ons for Genesis Generation X:
* GenX AddOn Gen3 for V3 and M3
* GenX AddOn Gen3 for S3 D3 and F3
* GenX AddOn Gen3 for A3 and H3
* GenX AddOn Gen3 Bundle
These add-ons have been updated to work with GenX2. In conjunction with the GenX2 AddOn for Genesis 2, they also support morph transfer to Genesis 2 Female and Male. (The old version for GenX1 is still available as part of the download.)
****************************************
Owners of Genesis Generation X, please consider the following:
* You get a coupon for a reduced price of Genesis Generation X2.
* The old serial number will still work.
* It is not possible to run version 1 and version 2 of Genesis Generation X at the same time.
* It is highly recommended to uninstall the old version of Genesis Generation X before installing Genesis Generation X2.
* The generation 3 add-ons for GenX have been updated. Download and install the GenX2 version of these add-ons to work with GenX2.
* Because of improvements in morph transfer, there may be incompatibilities between already transferred morphs and newly transferred morphs. (This holds for morphs with conditional morphs and with automated joint adjustments. Morphs transferred with "create single morph" are not affected.)
****************************************
Finally, I'm working on GenX2 add-ons for the following figures:
* Generation 3 Kids: Luke, Laura, Matt, Maddison (requires V3 and M3 Shapes for Genesis)
* Sam and Sadie by 3D Universe (requires Sadie and Sam for Genesis)
* Mavka by smay (requires Mavka for Genesis)
