my concern
I run Daz and open a file of a character I dress I want to lower the straps on the arms
http://rolmac.unblog.fr/files/2020/01/capture-1.jpg

so I export my character with this parameter ( the two parameters in yellow do not appear in the tutorial view due to the fact the software is prior to Daz 4.12. and I have to check one of the two to avoid a problem of geometry with morphe loader)

and the garment

I launch Marvelous Designer 9 and import my character

and the garment
http://rolmac.unblog.fr/files/2020/01/capture-5.jpg

I deform the garment and I export the garment

I’m going back to daz
I make : Edit/object/morph loader pro
http://rolmac.unblog.fr/files/2020/01/capture-7.jpg

daz accept.

I select the garment? I go in parameter then morph and move the cursor.

that I install in morphe loader the obj file made by Daz made for marvelous or the file made by marvelous for Daz, I have exactly the same result. the garment goes up or down with stretching or crushing deformation

It’s been almost two months that I’ve been busting my head about this problem and now I’ve got a baldness on top of my skull. seen a lot of video with similar settings but done with previous software daz 4.12 and marvelous 9, so some setting option does not appear in their video.

where is my mistake


Help me please, you are my last hope (it sounds star wars you don’t think?)

  • Please remember to use Smooth Shaded view in Ds if you are going to show a textured nude figure.

    I'm not immedirately seeing the error - I do have Marvellous Designer now so I will give it a whirl.

  • It worked for me just now, aside from the fact that the garment I chose was not welded and fell apart in Marvellous Designer. The falen apart morph did, however, load correctly. Try importing the OBJ and see if it still lines up with the original other than the changes from Marvellous Designer, that will at least tell you where the error is occurring.

    I edited my text by changing the offending image and blackening the disputing parties hoping that it suits

    I will refer a test with the character and clothing starting from scratch and with other characters and clothing. if the problem persists, I uninstall the two software and re-install them hoping that the problem disappears... I think I had to change a parameter, certainly in Daz that should not change or maybe Marvellous

    I’ll try to rest in the evening

    thank you for answering

    1) if you have already posed the figure in its final pose, does it really matter if you load the Marvelous Designer clothing as Morph?  You could just load obj as new scene prop?

    2) If you want to load as morph, can you confirm you are exporting and importing properly? Are your clothing items unfitted before you export and unfitted when you apply morph?  Any "fitted" clothing will have fitted morphs applied to them.  Adding your Marvelous Designer morph on top of that could cause issues perhaps?

    That could be the problem but Im not sure.  To check if that is the problem, unfit your clothing before export and leave it unfitted upon import.  Check if that helps?

    I assume you watched this already?

    I'm afraid not. Fortunately the images are not essential to explaining what is happening, it's the ones with the settings that are most important.

    sorry for this late response but I solved the problem by reinstalling Daz and Marvellous

    I had done all the possibilities, did and redo all the tutorials talking about export and import between Daz and Marvelous. posted on different forum this problem without finding a solution or cause almost two months I look at this problem

    For me the images are important for the comprehension of the text which is not in my native language

        the clothes made by the artists (thanks to them to save me time but not necessarily money laugh) often poses problems with marvelous. but fortunately nothing that can be solved

        Thank you Richard Haseltine, lilweep.  

        to have passed temp esayant de moi aidée solved its problem
