Daz to Maya not showing up in the Daz studio Scripts tab.

I installed the Daz to Maya on the Daz Central but when I open the Scripts tab on Daz Studio the Daz to Maya button does not show up. What might have caused this?

Was Daz Studio running when you installed?

I'm having the same problem. I've tried to install/uninstall Daz Studio and Daz to Maya using Daz Central in every possible order I can think of, without and with Studio being open, and I never get the "Script" menu in the top menu bar.

Oh my, after quite a day of trying to get all this to work, I've finally had success. Turns out the documentation on the Daz to Maya help page is outdated and there is no longer a "Scripts" menu in the menu bar after installing the Daz to Maya bridge. Instead, sending your Daz model is done by going to File > Send To > Daz to Maya. This will open a window that has updated instructions on how to install the bridge in Maya, including this very useful YouTube video:

I also had to do one extra step in order to launch the Daz Import window in Maya, which was to install PyMEL, otherwise Maya would give me an error. I think PyMEL was an optional install that I chose not to install when I updated to the latest version of Maya so others may not encounter this problem.
