Conversion of other file types into Daz

Hi, I'm learning to use Daz and have been enjoying myself fiddling around. One thing I've been trying to do is to convert models from Source Film Maker(SFM), ie the MDL file format for use in Daz. I know that SFM models can be converted for use in Blender, but I THINK there is a significant loss and posing is available only in SFM itself.

So I was wondering if anyone else had attempted to convert SFM>Daz?

    If you go to File > Import, that will give you a list of all of the file formats that DAZ Studio can import (I take it that it's Studio you are using, DAZ is the company)

    File formats which keep the rigging data, are FBX and DAE (Collada) but not all programs export them exactly the same (using the same standard).  OBJ only contains mehs and UV data, and would need to be re-rigged.   DAZ Studio cannot convert any file formats, so you would need to Google that.

    Thanks for the info. I'll fiddle around and see how it goes

    Kiloechonov did you ever figure out how to do what you were trying? If you did I would like to know how you did it.
