Quote - Well there are certain things that can work across the board. Take armor for example. It might be primarily masculinely made, but V5 could sport it just fine. Obviously, you can't put a tutu on a troll... well, you can, but lol I just mean that a lot of stuff which was predominantly made in such a way that its neutral, will work just fine. And far easier than the traditional system we are coming from, where it would require 049309493094 morphs to make it work.

And actually, on the topic of Auto fit... I think there is a tool that will transfer the morphs over as well. I can't say for certain what it is or how it works (maybe someone else who knows can answer) coz I only saw it once in passing and haven't used it myself.

Maybe for things like armor - but even there the majority is unfit for a male.....

Some clothing will be usable for both female and male - but most of those is already available for both.

The V4 clothing has not been designed around a neuter base so those will transfer even less favorable to a male

I have been using convertors for a long time and at first glance they look ok, but then when you do a closeup you see that things like buttons, collars and other geometric things are deformed. Going from a female to a male leaves terrible deformations around the chest area. If you add morphs it gets even worse. And then if you add texture stretching if becomes very bad.

Occasionally conversions work really well, but that is usually between similar meshes
