Thanks from me also! I'd previously tried to get Genesis 3 into Poser using two different methods, without success - this time it worked! Actually, a large part of the problem might have been that I wasn't expecting Genesis 3 to have expression dials only in the body, so I may have had a working figure before now without being aware of it. That part of your tutorial - minor as it may have been - has made all the difference, if so.
If I may add a couple of additional points:
Only visible parts of the selected figure will be transferred, so make sure all required parts are visible. I opened a pre-existing G3 scene in DAZ which happened to have body parts hidden (because poke-through) and, like the Poser mesh exporter, hidden parts are excluded.
Convert clothing and hair as a sole item in the scene: load each item individually into an empty scene in DAZ. If they're conformed to a figure, you seem to get a copy of that figure in your scene preset even if it was deselected.
Now I just need to get materials sorted out. I assume there's no easy path to doing that? I've got a simple diffuse map attached to the first material in the list in all my transferred items, but everything else is empty. (Correction - the G3F figure itself has transparency maps applied to EyeMoisture and EyeLashes, but no diffuse maps.)
