Animation good in Daz, constrained in Blender

jamesramirez6734

I have a mocap animation in Daz which looks great, though the limits and locks are off and the baked joint rotations are not the default for Genesis 8.

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?

I've tried this script, but it seems something else is messing up the animation. I'm wondering if it's baking the joint rotations which the bridge doesn't like.

 

import bpy
for bone in bpy.context.object.pose.bones:
    for con in bone.constraints:
        con.mute = True

It's as if the bone oritentations have been somehow jumbled - the arms moves side to side horizontally in Daz, but vertically in Blender.

The bones are oriented differently in blender versus Daz.  The D2B bridge should adjust for this, but it might not.  I would guess diffeomorphic adjusts for this difference (I would be more surprised if it didn't).

And it's not just the bones' orientation, but their primary axis (twist) as well. In DS, the primary axis is the first axis of the rotation order. In Blender, it is always Y.
