Maya 2023 Daz Import Menu Error

August 2022 edited August 2022 in Maya Discussion

In Maya 2023 when I click "Daz Import" on the Maya shelf I get this error. How do I fix it? Thanks

In Script Editor it says:

DazToMaya.run()
# Error: ModuleNotFoundError: file C:\Users\X9Main\Documents\maya\modules\DazToMaya\scripts\d2m.py line 31: No module named 'pymel'

    You are almost there.  Please look at the last step (step 9) in the installation instructions found here: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/574846/official-daztomaya-bridge-2022-july-update-what-s-new-and-how-to-use-it/p1

    Thanks for the video time stamped link.

    I ticked the box to install Pymell on Maya 2023, but I kept getting the error. I'll review the steps you outlined and the install procedure again to see what I missed.

    Thanks for the great work on these Plugins!

    The right topic is here. I get this message now: 

     

    import sys

    sys.dont_write_bytecode = True  # don't write PYCs

     

    import maya.cmds as cmds

    import DazToMaya

    if int(cmds.about(v=True)) > 2020:

    import importlib

    importlib.reload(DazToMaya)

    else:

    reload(DazToMaya)

    DazToMaya.run()

    # pymel.internal.apicache : Rebuilding the API Caches...

    modelingToolkit

    # Error: OSError: file C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2024\Python\lib\site-packages\pymel\internal\parsers.py line 790: Cannot find maya documentation. Expected to find it at C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2024\docs\Maya2024\en_US

     

    ---------------

     

    SOLVED - how? IN C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2024\Python\Lib\site-packages\pymel\cache change all 2023 to 2024 

     

    Done -_-

    Hello. I tried to use Daz2Maya's latest update on Cartoon Adult Female Character, Hair, and Outfit for Genesis 9 and got the following message.

    ---- Running DAZ Rigger v1.02 ----
    // Warning: file: C:/Users/uefi/Documents/maya/modules/DazToMaya/scripts/DAZTools.mel line 494: New name contains invalid characters. Illegal characters were converted to "_". // 
    ---- Geometries grouped ----
    // Error: file: C:/Users/uefi/Documents/maya/modules/DazToMaya/scripts/DAZTools.mel line 1759: setAttr: No object matches name: lForearmTwist_EXP.jointTypeY // 

    How can I get this to work with this asset? It has worked on Genesis 8.1 females with no issues. Any help is appreciated.
