Hello, I have rigged and animated a character and would like to take that rig and animation data and apply it to a new version of the asset, one that has proper textures. Everything is the same about the asset, except this one (just a duplicate of the one rigged and animated) I have done a grouping on it to put textures. I have tried using the 'New From HDA Session“ but I keep getting ”This is not a valid AutoRig Character" error.
Any advice on how to proceed?

Ok- sorry, I answered my own question. Still getting my head fully around the Procedural way of doing- but I love it! My answer, and I'm sure the Gurus around here know some better ways to do it- was to create a Separate File Node- then inside that I used Object Merge to bring in my already rigged and animated Geo. From there I applied my Group nodes- and downstream from that my Material Nodes.
I would love to hear from the Gurus a superior workflow- but this was my solution, and it works, although I allow there are probably superior (re: easier) solutions to this particular problem.
Anyway, will leave this here for others who may run into this problem.
Thanks!
