Updates - Daz to Blender

Daz_Bryce · June 2021

Daz To Blender Version 2.3.7

New export logic
- Will check if node found is a character; if not it will export as environment/prop
- Will also unparent and reparent grouped characters
Able to export Genesis and Genesis 2 figures as characters
- Does not support Genesis 1 and 2 skinning method will automatically convert weights
Fixed offset
- Some morphs will translate skeletons now it will take that account in fixing skeletons
Added figure data to DTU
Code refactor updates
Added several morph presets to simplify export process
Added a Refresh Button on dropdown to reload the dropdown menu if character is missing

Fix the ErcMultiply execution in Blender to have it apply correctly
Added the option to disable morph links during export
- Fixes multiple morphs on one controller
  - For example; Surprised morph for Genesis 8.1 is made of multiple morphs, now it will export them separately as the default option
Updates to driver additions to match better with Daz setup
Add a new function to bulk remove the morph prefix
- Choose your asset in the dropdown, and then run

Moved rigging to its own panel
Fixed error with face not following when morphs are on the import
Add an option to collect textures
- This will include paths of all the external textures in the dtu

Fixed Python error Runtime error (change of figure size) during Iteration
Allows the bridge to skip over FBX error; in some cases the script will fix errors in the FBX importer
Fixed “TypeError” issue when importing a character with hand and leg JCMs to the Blender

Daz_Bryce · June 2021

Created a controller that allows morphs that are being manipulated to also still be independently controlled (only for visible, non-hidden morphs)
By default, the morph prefix is removed, but an option exist if you would like to disable it

Deleted morphs that shouldn't have been included on the children objects (i.e. morphs that use a logic of checking if the figure has the bone, an alias, or the morph itself on the children object)
Deleted morphs that don't exist in Daz but still export

Multiply the 2nd Stage Drivers by zero (if first stage does not exist)
Solved an issue where some versions of 2.83 and 2.92 fail
Consolidated the settings under General Settings and renamed to Import Settings
Allow users to disable the viewport changes for the display settings
Optimizations made to check if bone is weighted before adding it as included mesh

Daz_Bryce · August 2021

Poses not working on Root Bone
Poses being applied correctly when multiple characters are being exported
Male facial rig broken when using Rigify
Dropdown added in Morph List allowing the control of morphs for multiple characters in one scene
Option to Refresh the Dropdown in the morph list to allow the reopening of blender scenes with the morphs still being available

Support for importing multiple figures with morph list work
Dropdown to choose between different figure's morphs
Option to customize Export Path for Blender, allowing you to move where blender exists
- 1. Go to Import Settings
- 2. Check use Custom Path
- 3. Choose the folder that you wish to use
Allow Collect Textures to work relative to user's export (sharing of export files between computers)
Can now disable remove incompatible nodes during export
Can now disable morph optimization

Changed the Figure export logic allowing more then just Genesis Characters to export in that method
- This will allow export of any asset as a figure if the type is Actor/Character
Basic Support for DzLegacyFigure
