thanks :))

agree - the script extracted and created the OBJ, again, quickly and cleanly.  i did get from G9 to Abby by first semi-converting for V4, which was especially easy, in case anyone is curious about that bit in terms of forms and proportions... now, there is a sleeveless crop top that comes with this set, too, that i let the script extract, but after looking it over, and based on Abby's shape [big boobs & heavily sloped upper chest area], i did not convert that; however, it looked like it, too, would be an easy process to fit to V4.  the jacket that comes with it starts in the A-pose, and so that may be maybe easy to use for LF2 since i think i read they changed her default pose [?], but am not sure, obviously. in looking at LF2, in her default pose, it looks like her arms are not quite in a true A-pose the way other figures do, but i'm guessing here, so wth do i know?

and after thinking things over, and knowing myself, i have opted to not keep the pants... heh
