Hope you can help me with this one.

I get Python errors in the Diffeomorphic scripts folder whenever I try to save a G8 figure's pose (Rigify) to a preset file. I see this happen for both G8M and G8F, and also with G8.1F. I started seeing this after moving to the Differomorphic 1.7 version.

To recreate the problem:

1. Export G8F to Diffeomrophic (as DBZ) with Daz 4.21.0.5 64-bit version.
2. In Blender, load via Easy Import. Select Rigirify system.
3. Save to a new Blend file.
4. Diffeomrophic -> Save Pose Preset (use default settings).
5. Blender displays a log error window.

Relevant file attachments:

• G8F Daz DUF
• G8F_EasyImport.jpg (import settings)
• G8F_SavePose (default settings)
• SavePosePreset_Error.txt
• SavePosePreset_SystemInfo.txt

Cheers!

any ideas why there's no door opening in Daz, like there is in Blender?

Blender

DAZ

Is it the odd geometry i wonder?

tried to make it with as low quads as possible. 

These are my OBJ Export Settings:

These, my OBJ Import Settings (in Daz)

One of the figures is heavily rotated which seems to throw Blender off. I wonder if there's a way to export 2 figures in the exact same position they're in?

I use Diffeo 1.6.2 with Blender 3.1.0. When I import a GF8.1 figure from Daz and Rigify the rig, then apply a pose, the neck bones often don't follow. To correct this, I have to manually adjust the neck bone settings. The screenshots below illustrate the issue.

(1) My figures are imported in an A-Pose. Using Diffeo, I proceed to apply a Daz pose.

(2) The outcome of the pose import leaves the neck bones awry.

(3) I can manually correct this by revealing the Rigify bones in pose mode, selecting the neck rotator and adjusting the pose follow-through. Setting the two values to "1.0" corrects the neck pose.

While I'm happy to correct the pose this way, it's not all too clear to me what's going on underneath the hood. Why the neck bones? I understand the value of giving the end user the means to adjust the follow-through of a Daz pose on particular bones, but would it not make sense for the defaults to be set to 100 percent? Just a thought.

Cheers!

I just downloaded a new version of Daz to Blender Importer (as well as DAZ itself, since I haven't used it in a quite a while) and I managed to import Genesis 8.1 female figure into blender via new exporter/importer.

But initially I imported a still model without any animation, and now I would like to update it with an animation, without re-importing her all over again. Is that possible to do through Pose Tools inside the bridge plugin? Or is there some other way?

Thank You.

When I export a Genesis 8 character (export to Blender), I can do an Easy Daz Import to Blender.
When I use Export HD to Blender, I assumed that I get a HD version of the character (e.g Subdiv 4). Do I have to set the SubDiv Level in Daz before I do the export?
Nevertheless I seem to get a non-HD version of the character. In Blender I can select Make Multires when both meshes are select. I assume that you have to select the hires mesh first.

Just some of the questions I have and I would love to see a walkthrough. I really would love to bake a displacement map afterwards from the multires. For this there are some tutorials available.

Can someone give me a hint? Thanks!

Has anyone else had this issue?

Is there anyway to control the SSS on just the eyelids, with a map or something?

If I have to use a workaround, is there something better than just using the shrink wrap modifier?

Please, can someone walk me through the new settings? Or does anyone have a working set of parameters?

However, that was done with a rather clumsily-made mesh. Ever since that initial success, I've been trying to duplicate the effort with a much better looking mesh.

Unfortunately, no matter what Cloth Sim settings I try, my efforts constantly result in the dragon's figure penetrating the cloth with catastrophic results. I can't seem to repeat the initial success that I achieved just a month ago!

Here are the Cloth Sim settings of that initial success:

And here are the Cloth Sim settings from my latest effort--with the catastrophic failure just begining:

The Internal Pressure is being animated, with the value of 0 at Frame 1, 0.01 at Frame 100, 0.05 at Frame 250, 0.25 at Frame 350, 0.4 at Fram 425, 0.5 at Frames 500 & 600, and back to 0.1 at Frame 1000....

Just so you know, despite my many setbacks and failures, the effort has not been without some amusing incidents.

I got this "Cellery-Stalks-On-A-Balloon" effect during one of my attempts a couple weeks ago when the Chaos Cascade overwhelms the Cloth Sim :

It grows even funnier-looking as the Simulation gets up to around 750, where the ballooning effect begins to envelop the entire torso!  But it's very hard to capture that image as this takes nearly 8 hours to get to that point--just before reaching another catastrophic glitch point that changes the entire mesh again. Unfortunately, the multiple Chaotic Cascades affect the entire Simulation, so it's impossible to Bake, play back, or record as an animation for posterity.

This might be a niche question. I want to animate with Daz characters in Blender with the help of Cascadeur. I was wondering if anyone has found a stable workflow for importing/exporting in and out of blender to cascadeur. As of now I'm using Diffeo to export chars to blender then trying to export using FBX to cascadeur from blender but importing to cascadeur seems to be where I'm running into trouble.

Does anyone have a good workflow for this process?

Thanks!

When exporting using the Daz to Blender bridge, the animation looks messed up as if Blender has reapplied constraints to the animation.

Is there any reliable way to remove all constraints/limits once in Blender?

• In the search bar on the right-hand side of the Blender Prefernces window, search for "Daz".

Question:

* There is no search bar in the current version of Blender (3.2 /something). What do i do?

Hints much appreciated.

How can I get my Daz animated figure (a man on top of a horse riding 30 frames) to import correctly into Blender with the animation???

Thanks in advance!

I have been spending days trying to export a Genisis 8.1 figure with a simple walking animation (from Mixamo) and Mehrloc Hair dreadlocks (https://www.daz3d.com/mehrloc-hair-for-genesis-8-and-81) from DAZ to Blender.

In Daz the hair is simulated and animates nicely, reacting to the walking animation. Now I am trying to get this to Blender

I tried the Daz To Blender bridge, the Diffeomorphic DAZ Importer and exporing/importing fbx files.

The only way I am able get the figure with the animation and hair from DAZ to Blender is by experting exporing/importing an fbx file.

However the physics on the hair do not work in Blender.

Is there a way to transport the hair animation to Blender? 

Preferably also with the Beads in the hear which also animiate incorrectly (you can see them floating arround in the gif above) but I've been spending so much time on this I'm willing to just remove them from the figure.

Thanks!

Together with Auto Rig Pro's Quick Rig, it's one of the addons that I think no one who animates in Blender should be without. And Tal is apparently not resting on his laurels.
