DS2RizomUV - Feature List

DS2RizomUV is a one-click bridge between DAZ Studio and RizomUV, allowing you to send any mesh from your scene directly into RizomUV for UV editing, then seamlessly reimport the updated UVs without losing your materials, morphs, pose, or Sub-D settings.

Core Workflow

  • One-click export sends your selected object to RizomUV instantly with no manual file management required.
  • Automatic OBJ handoff exports your mesh, generates the required RizomUV load script, and launches RizomUV automatically in a single operation.
  • Live file monitoring detects updated files after saving in RizomUV and prompts you to accept the UV changes before import.
  • Confirm or cancel at re-import with a simple Accept or Cancel dialog that lets you approve or discard UV updates before any changes are applied to your scene.

Scene State Protection

  • Before export, the script captures and neutralizes scene state to ensure the exported mesh is clean and accurate. All settings are fully restored after the UV update or immediately if you cancel.
  • Morph and shape zeroing memorizes and zeroes figure morphs before export, then restores them afterward. This ensures the exported mesh always reflects the base geometry regardless of active morphs.
  • Pose zeroing memorizes and zeroes figure poses before export, then restores them after re-import.
  • Sub-D level preservation captures both viewport and render Sub-D levels, then temporarily switches the mesh to base resolution for export. Original settings are restored automatically afterward.
  • Cancel-safe restore immediately restores morphs, poses, and Sub-D settings if you decline the UV update.

Material Preservation

  • Deep material backup duplicates all materials on the selected object before geometry updates, preserving shader graphs, texture maps, and ERC links.
  • Accurate material restoration restores materials to matching surfaces by name, with index fallback when needed.
  • No material loss ensures that only geometry data is updated, preserving original surface assignments and shader setups.

Parented Figure Support

  • The Figure is parented option allows the script to memorize and zero the parent figure pose when clothing or props are attached to another figure, preventing export offset issues.
  • Graceful fallback warns the user if no parent figure is detected while continuing safely without parent pose handling.
  • Cross-platform support stores settings and temporary files in platform-appropriate locations on both Windows and macOS.

Export Quality

  • Clean OBJ export exports meshes at base resolution with UV coordinates, geometry groups, and material assignments intact using the DAZ Studio 1 unit = 1 cm preset for correct RizomUV scale.
  • UV coordinate passthrough imports geometry groups along with full UV and position data into RizomUV, with UV normalization enabled for optimal workspace results.

    Also very nice, but RizomUV is too expensive for me.

    Most if not all of the tools I release are mainly for content developers.

    I ADORE RizomUV. Cost me $150 for perpetual, and it does the job of UV unwrapping SO much easier than just about anything else I've used, no fuss.

    I don't need to unwrap often, but when I do... whew.

    It literally is the best, I have been using it since early beta days and I am still a beta tester as well as have my own dedicated channel in their official Discord (For Rizom Link Cinema 4D Support Only) . Remi is a great guy with a great tool.

    I see. Thanks for the warning.

    Strange that there are no resellers for Rizom, all that they show on their own site are either shady sites or sites with 'software' in their name, but no reference to Rizom in their products. Wondering where this 'Rizom' is from.

    What are you talking about?
    If you would like to know a little history here is a nice VFX article about how it started.

    I had never heard of rizom until the release of daz 2 rizomUV. So what's the price of this rizom? From the rizom site, I was directed to resellers in the U.S. But like drawflesh mentioned, there's no reference to rizom in their products. I don't care to buy rizom. I use ultimate unwrap for my needs. I only want to compare the price and features.

    RizomUV is a product from a small French company, Rizom-Lab.

    You can see the various prices on their site: https://www.rizomuv.com/virtual-spaces/plans-prices/

    The indie licence for the "virtual spaces" version aimed at 3D artists is €149.90 for a perpetual licence. There's also a subscription model where you pay €14.90 monthly and you get a perpetual licence automatically after 12 consecutive months/

    Pro licences are subscription only.

    Yeah, 15$ a month for 12 months is awesome, after 12 months you own it.

    Thank you guys for the information. $15 a month to full ownership is awesome for sure.

    There is also 2 weeks test version of RizomUV. They said it is fully functional.
