I have not tried using Collada yet, so I don't know anything about it. How would I export the model with all of that in place, including the armature skeleton, so that it can be imported into DAZ Studio 4.5 Pro? What issues would I need to deal with in this process? Will the armature export with the model, or would I need to rig it in DAZ Studio 4.5 Pro?Īs for importing models from DAZ Studio 4.5 into Blender 2.63, I can get them in if they are in Wavefront. Let's say I rig and apply materials, textures and UV image maps to a model in Blender and the model is a series of separate objects jointed together to form the whole model. This means, if you want the animations and poses, you're probably going to export at least two separate files - one with and one without animations, and then you're probably going to have to manually add constraints from bone to bone.Įvery release, things seem to get better, but there are definitelys some gotchas going back and forth between Daz Studio and Blender. Also, when you export with animation, it doesn't set the rest position to the T-Pose. Some "leaf" bones (bones with no children) don't get the right transformation. The material issues have been fixed, and poses and animation can be imported. With the latest version of both Daz and Blender, the Collada export is working much better. Until the latest version of 4.5, Collada export didn't export animations or poses in a way that Blender could import, and the material assignments would get screwed up, assigning everything to the first material. You'll preserve the pose and a good deal of the material and texture data (though some advanced features will have to be done manually, like reflection maps, etc.)Įxporting the model using Collada will work also, but it's limited. If you're looking to just bring the model over, there are options for that as well.Įxporting the model using WaveFront OBJ will work, but you'll lose the armature. The Search doesn't bring them up, but they're still available at this link: dsf files (geometry, morph ,uv maps) and for exporting morphs that were posted by millighost to these forums a while back. If you're looking to create morphs, there's a set of scripts for importing.
