Re: [facegen] Running FaceGen on Mac with Parallels/Windows 10 and exporting

[Angela Zhang]

Hey JD, I know you posted this two years ago lol but
 I was wondering if the method FaceGen Guru suggested worked for you? I'm 
basically in the exact same scenario, or rather deciding whether or not I 
should purchase FaceGen so I can approach this method, if the .fg file 
works the same way via Parallels on the Mac version of Daz.
Were you able to load your finished Daz model just as a regular genesis 
model w the facegen face already on it?

Thank you so much for your help! :D

Thanks Andrew, missed the email somehow.

I’ll give it a go and try to let you know if it works.
