Introducing WallWizard Advanced Geometry Cutout Tool for Daz Studio 
=========================

Wall Wizard generates clean, production-ready wall meshes with cutouts for
doors and windows. Exported meshes have four independent surface zones for
easy texturing in Daz Studio or any 3D application.


GETTING STARTED
---------------
Launch WallWizard.exe. You'll see the parameter panel on the left and a 3D
preview on the right. Adjust any slider and the preview updates instantly.


WALL PARAMETERS
---------------
  Width      Wall width in cm (50-1000, default 300)
  Height     Wall height in cm (50-500, default 250)
  Thickness  Wall depth in cm (5-100, default 20)


CUTOUTS
-------
Click "+ Add" to add a cutout. Each cutout has:

  Shape      Rectangle, Arch, Round, Gothic, Custom, or Import Model...
  Width      Cutout width in cm
  Height     Cutout height in cm
  Pos X      Horizontal offset from wall center (negative = left)
  Pos Y      Vertical center from wall bottom

Shape-specific sliders appear automatically:

  Arch       "Arch" slider (0 = flat top, 1 = full semicircle)
  Gothic     "Point" slider (0 = gentle curve, 1 = sharp lancet)
  Rectangle  "Radius" slider (0 = sharp corners, up to 50 = rounded)
  Round      Uses both Width and Height independently (ellipse when different)

Enable/disable a cutout with its checkbox. Remove it with the X button.


IMPORTING MODELS
----------------
Select "Import Model..." from a cutout's Shape dropdown to import an
existing door or window model and auto-size the cutout to match.

Supported formats:
  .duf / .dsf   Daz Studio scenes and geometry files
  .obj          Wavefront OBJ (auto-detects meters vs cm)
  .fbx          Autodesk FBX (detects Wall Wizard exports via Jamb mesh)

The importer extracts the model's outline using convex hull analysis,
auto-detects the correct projection plane, and creates a Custom shape
that matches the imported geometry. Width, height, and position are
set automatically.

DUF Import: Wall Wizard reads your Daz Install Manager library paths
from Account.ini, so it can resolve geometry references across all your
content libraries automatically.

FBX Import: If the FBX was exported from Wall Wizard, the importer
detects the Jamb mesh and extracts the cutout shape from it (not the
full wall outline).

Best results: For the most accurate shape detection, import ONLY the
window or door — not the entire scene with walls and other objects.
The importer uses the convex hull of all vertices, so extra geometry
(walls, floors, furniture) will distort the detected outline.

  DUF: Select the window/door in the Scene pane, then
       File > Save As > Scene Subset (.duf). Import that into Wall Wizard.

  OBJ: Select only the window/door, then File > Export > OBJ.
       Enable subdivision for the smoothest, most accurate outline.

  FBX: Select only the window/door, then File > Export > FBX.
       IMPORTANT: Check "Include Props" in the FBX export dialog,
       otherwise the geometry will not be embedded in the file.

OBJ exports with subdivision applied give the smoothest, most accurate
outlines. FBX and DUF base meshes have fewer vertices and may produce
slightly more angular shapes.


EXPORT
------
File menu > Export Mesh, or use the Export section in the left panel.

Formats:
  OBJ (.obj)   Wavefront OBJ + MTL file. Universal compatibility.
  FBX (.fbx)   Autodesk FBX via AssimpNet. Native Daz Studio import.

Both formats export four surface/material zones:
  WallFront    The visible front face (brick, stone, plaster)
  WallBack     The back face (drywall, paint)
  Jamb         Inside the cutout openings (wood trim, painted reveal)
  WallEdges    Top, bottom, and side edges of the wall

In Daz Studio, each zone appears as a separate surface that can be
independently shaded.


FILE MENU
---------
  New              Reset to default wall with one cutout (Ctrl+N)
  Open             Open a .wallwiz configuration file (Ctrl+O)
  Save             Save current configuration (Ctrl+S)
  Save As          Save to a new file (Ctrl+Shift+S)
  Export Mesh      Export wall as OBJ or FBX

Configuration files (.wallwiz) are JSON and store all wall parameters,
cutout settings, and custom outline points.


3D PREVIEW
----------
The right panel shows a live 3D preview of the wall mesh. The preview
updates automatically whenever any parameter changes. Material zones
are shown in distinct colors for easy identification.


TIPS
----
- Start with a preset, then fine-tune with sliders.
- Import a DUF of your door/window first, then adjust the cutout shape
  to get a perfect fit with zero resizing in Daz Studio.
- Use the Radius slider on rectangles for modern rounded window frames.
- Gothic Point at 0 gives a soft arch; at 1 gives a tall lancet point.
- Round shape with different Width and Height creates elliptical windows.
- Custom shapes from imported models preserve the original geometry
  outline, including curves and angles.


REQUIREMENTS
------------
- Windows 10/11 (64-bit)
- Single-file portable executable through Daz Install Manager
- .NET 9 runtime is bundled (self-contained)

    A video I made today explaining how Wall Wizard works.

    I know the video is long but you can get the gist of the whole program and how it works in one place without having to read the manual.

    I believe WallWizard is easy to use so you will never hesitate from using it in your scene making process.

    I am glad Daz has offered this sale for those who really want the program and price is an obstacle. Let me know how your walls look Charlie!  smiley

    I assume there are now enough people out there using WallWizard to give me feedback on how it works so I can plan an update for the program. 

    I know for sure the first update will have a "select all" option in the import dialog for objects with a lot of geometry mesh parts. Let me know what else it needs. Thank you for choosing WallWizard! heart
