Where is UTC ?

Hi,

UTC Victoria 4 [Face Only] Plugin is sold but where is Universal Texture Convertor ???

UTC was the old program replaced by

https://www.daz3d.com/texture-convertor-2-tc2

There is a V4 plugin for this but it is the same price to get the bundle.

FYI this program is only for Michael,Victoria 3 and 4 and a couple of 3DU specific characters. (Michael requires additional plugins)

It's also worth noting that many people have reported that TC2 frequently doesn't work properly in recent operating systems -- various antivirus programs try to quarantine it, despite it not being malware. 3DUniverse doesn't really support it any more, and I don't think Daz does much, either. (Kind of astonished that it's sitll in the store, frankly)

I have no issue with TC2 and Windows 10 1803 (Windows Defender antivirus).

 

I was looking for UTC because I read this :

"The "Universal Texture Converter" that is for sale in the DAZ3D online store, will convert your Michael 2.0 maps to work with Michael 3.0's new UV setup.​"

since Michael 2 is also history I doubt you will have any luck there either

Michael 2 isn't G2M, and Michael 3 isn't G3M, just for the record (in case someone reads and thinks "cool, I can use this to convert textures from Genesis 2 to Genesis 3). M2&3 came before Michael 4, and before Genesis 1.

Sure, just I'm curious about Millennium 1 & 2 figures and want to see how could be Michael 2.0 textures in 2018 (Iray + NGS Anagenessis 2).

Is there a way to convert the latest Gen face textures back onto V4?   The latest          product contains this tantalizing language:  "Both way conversion - will convert from and to any other compatible human figure."  ....but I imagine the writer only means transfer of textures of any V4 back to any other V4, and not a transfer of textures between the later and latest Gen's back to V4.    Anyone have any experience converting the latest Gen face textures backwards to V4 ?...

I have a virtual machine running Winxp. i'm running TC2, UTC and the even older V2-V3 Tecture Converter as well as Decal Master and Texture paint helper. This may be the way to go if you want older programs to run.
