Hi all, I am considering buying the upgrade to V3 and am a little confused by it this time. I'm not fully sure I understand if all my old textures can be made to work with her(can they without a hug effort and will they still work on the old versions after I've converted them?) since I have invested like hundreds of dollars in texture maps(as I'm sure lots of people have). Plus I'm not sure I like the fact that everything is seperated(sorry, I'm trying to be optimistic but I can't help it) and also wonder about existing clothing for V2...will it work on V3? Anyway, any answers or thoughts are appreciated..:) Thanks, Melissa

From what I've seen the old textures will not work on V3 she's been mapped totally different, the same goes for the clothes. It should keep the texture & clothes makers busy for a while though :)

Steve...you are a dear, but unfortunately unless some fairy godmother grants me a pile of money, I won't be able to partake of your wonderful skills. I don't have a subscription to PoserWorld, and it's just not within my budget capabilities right now.....sigh.

DAZ has a set of UVS files on the V3 page that will convert V1/2 textures for use with V3 and vice versa.

There is a "Vicki 3 to Vicki 2" figure in your characters folder that takes Vicki 2 maps. I tested it and it worked nicely.
