Problem in scaling armature in blender export

terpix_3c0dfb0e34

I try to use DS 4.21 to export Genesis 9 character into Blender 3.6. In generally, everything seems to go pretty well, but there's an issue, which I haven't find any solution.
All my genesis 9 characters uses armature scaling in DS, but it doesn't seem to be supported in blender export. With base Genesis, everything works OK, but when I use character morphs, armature doesn't scale with mesh and it brakes the rigging.

I really need the morphs in blender, and preferably character morphs too, so I don't need so many different characters. I haven't even find a way to export character from DS with character morphs fixed and others available in blender.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I woudln't like to fix the armature manually every time I change something. Especially fingers cause problems every time and they are the most difficult to fix.

With diffeomorphic you can import ERC morphs. They only work with the daz rig though, not with IK.

Thanks! I'll look that, but I really need IK.

I've been using workaround, where I export another figure from DAZ, without morphs, but with correct dial setings for armature altering morphs. Then I import that chracter to Blender and use it's armature in meshes armature modifier.

It works, but has drawbacks. I can't delete the original unused armature or other dublicate stuff or driver keys disappear from morph list. I don't know what brakes down or is it even possible to fix it.

I can't find any of those settings about ERC morphs or morphing armature from my daz2blender plugin. My plugin version is 2023.1.1.15, which is newer than in the article.

You have to get diffeomorphic, not the daz bridge. They are two different addons for blender.

I did try it, but ended with another problem. Can't load expressions or body shape morphs. Loading custom morph from daz file don't work. Morph becomes visible but is empty.

Be sure to update to 1.7.2 then try easy import.
