When using the Female and Male models from Genesis 3, using the Rigify button breaks the models and controllers.

It seems everythink works except the eyelashes and the eyebrows don't follow the face expressions. Its seems to be a bug, other people have the same issue.

-Load Genesis 8 Male in Daz
-Use Daz To Blender Bridge with no morph and no animation
-Import Genesis 8 in Blender
-Use "To Rigify"
-Error

when i import a model it automatically check the depth box... i don't want uncheck it every time i import a model

DAZ 4.15
Bridge Version: 2.3.7
This product: https://www.daz3d.com/celebrations-for-baroque-grandeur-iray-addon

When trying to import Celebrations for Baroque Grandeur Iray Addon, nothing else in the scene, on the DAZ side, it acts like there is only people in the scene. First it tells me that transferring 3 or more people will freeze things. Then it asks me to choose the subdivs for each of the items in the scene. It appears to export something.

On the Blender side, nothing happens in the Env/Props import. For figures, I get the tiny tiny collection of shapes you get with a figure armature (maru, octagon, pentagon, etc.) The main thing I get is the image that an error has occurred and the three possibilities about body erasure, unsupported genitals, and geo-grafting.

Also, in importing outfits not fitted to any character, the armature is located flat on the ground on the right side facing to the outfit.

1. the download does not create a zip file, in the appdata/roaming/blender foundation folder, the daz addon musty be zipped up manually to install in blender
2. the export from daz creates a FIG_0 folder in exports folder which causes the blender import to crash, user has to copy the files from FIG_0 and paste into the FIG root folder.
3. once all the above is done blender import wont crash with errors but.... it does absolutely nothing other than create some collections, no geometry, nothing imported

complete fail

I've updated, I've reinstalled Daz Studio, I've manually installed the addon in blender but the rig and it's bones always import wrong. I don't know why. I don't see anyone else complaining about this issue so I'm guessing it's something I've done but I don't know what

I cannot import poses/animations into Blender that I make myself in Daz Studio but preset poses can be imported successfully.

The same poses (and animations) I make can be applied successfully within Daz Studio so they should work.

Attached is an example of a pose I cannot import. Just remove the .txt extension.
walk-jump.duf.txt

I am using DazToBlender_2.3.8_beta with Blender 2.93

When I export from Daz and import in Blender, the Morph List works as expected. However, I saved the .blend file, closed Blender, re-open it and load the saved file, Morph List is all gone.

Blender version: 2.9.3
DazToBlender version: 2.3.7, 2.3.8, 2.3.9 all have this problem.

Though I still not test with default G3 female, but when I exchange FK to IK, or IK to FK,
it change foot pose and move gradually. It is not expected for IK FK compatible rig.
(though one click convert IK FK is awsom I like the way)

1. load G3F character in blender
2. click lShin_IK from DazToBlender UI. it move foot around bones.
3. click lShin_IK to de-activate. it move foot around bones strange way
   continue 2 and 3, now my actor foot corrupted.

I afraid it is because, DAZ made G3 small toes not parented by Toe but be parented by Metalsals.
it make everything difficult when make IK FK foot stable in blender.
So if it not work for G3 only, I request if you remove constrain, (or DAZ ERC) but simply parented by Toe bone.
so when Toe rotate >> child Toe bones rotate.

Though I know, daz studio way which used for Genesis3 is more smart, (it bend each toe bone more naturall)
but there seems no way to make stable IK FK for G3 foot.. (if it move with IK FK switch, it lost means,,,)
(actually I hoped to know, and have serched way to get IK FK foot for G3 figure without remove unique structure,
but when convert rig for blender with IK FK, I could not find good way,,without change strcture)

Here are DUF and BLEND files

A recent update has caused models to start just breaking when imported. Like, this is how it should look, it's fine when I set it to the rest position in Blender.

But when initially imported, and set to pose position its just

hogwild.

I tried applying the rest pose and various other things to no avail. When applying the rest pose, the skeleton itself goes where it should, but the mesh continues to turn to spaghetti.

If anyone has any solution, I would certainly appreciate it. Otherwise, my next course of action shall be an exorcism.

Blender versions tried: 2.91.2, 2.92
Daz studio 4.15
Daz to Blender 2.1.0 (updated today)

With the basic genesis 8 female (I have also tried 8.1), the character seems to be imported properly but when posing it, the shape keys are not following.
As a result, the mesh is deformed only by bones and joints are that strange:

I really love the way importing a character into blender is easy with this bridge. Tell me if I can do anything to help!

Changing the "scale" parameter in Daz leads to an incorrect rig in Blender - it seems that the rig is scaled up but the mesh is not.

This is not the case when the scale parameter is driven my some other morph, such as a full character morph. In this case the rig will be correct in Blender, as long as the scale parameter was not modified directly.

Here's an example showing a Genesis 8 Male figure with 120% scale in Daz, imported into Blender.

Plugin version: 2.3.7
Blender version: 2.93

I check how toe constrain work with small toes , then confirm it use constrain. it seems reasonable.
but when I pose toe with use local axis, only smalltoe1 (L and R) bend strange direction.

I check consttrain parameters, but it seems correct. then I assume, the SmallToe bone roll is wrong circulated
when imported. I see same problem about both side SmallToe1 of Genesis3 Actor

in daz

Do I need to remove morphs which may adjust foot in daz studio? ( if it cause matter)

yes I confirm actually bone roll is wrong. ( local axis (or normal)) for bend direction about those 2 toe bones. Of couse in daz studio there is no problem about same actor. (which I imported)

(editted to attach pic)

I saw that bridges are on the website and got into a never ending loop getting to the correct link. The main link from the home page gets you to your use account and nothing shows. I don't know how but eventually landed here.

Why is it on the site when its not showing proper information?

Im talking about this page; https://www.daz3d.com/blender-bridge

Eventually a got here through this page; https://www.daz3d.com/open-source and then clicking blender

On my old Pc it was no Problem evrything worked. On my new Pc i do evrything like on my old Pc. But if i try to import something, blender give me this error. :(

Genesis 8 female--a more complex pose, but it's not supposed to look horrific like this. DAZ 4.15, Bridge 2.3.1.1

A. All shapekeys are missing
B. Mesh and armature are not the same size, resulting in armature not matching up to mesh, or sometimes it will be the right size but lower.
C. Pose warps mesh in strange ways because of armature
D. Clicking on shin IK takes armature into edit mode but does not show IK bones for posing (at least not that I can find). Okay, edit, I found them behind the feet, but they don't work.
E. Porting clothes over on an empty armature (no genesis figure attached but still poseable clothes) twists bones in strange ways so that mesh is warped. This used to work fine on the old bridge.

Blender Version:

This is what she's supposed to look like in DAZ (added a dress in this screenshot, so ignore).

First, thanks for adding the checkbox to skip the morph dialog. This speeds things up a lot for me.

Error repro:

1. Load figure.
2. Parent figure under a Group node (I do this regularly to manage scenes with lots of figures so I can hide them and all their attachments easily)
3. Run DTB export.

Result:

1. Initial dialog (Figure/Env/Both) doesn't appear at all.
2. The script appears to run with all the usual behaviors (items being made visible, figure pose being reverted to zero) but the export file doesn't appear in the export folder; running the Blender plugin doesn't find the exported data.

Workaround:
Manually unparent figure from Group node before running DTB export.

Hello,

I use the latest version 2.3.1 but the JCMs are not exported.

This is how it should look like:

It also applies expression morphs on the stockings for example:

The import script reports "Appropriate FBX is not exists!"

1. "... DOES not exist_" is grammatically correct.

2. The exact missing file must be reported instead of general wording like "Appropriate FBX", e.g. "B_FIG.fbx in C:\KDV\Documents\DTB\FIG\FIG1 is missing".
   In case the FBX must fit some criteria, the criteria must be reflected in the error message, e.g. "C:\KDV\Documents\DTB\FIG\FIG1\B_FIG.fbx 'ApplicationVendor' value must be 'DAZ 3D' instead of 'SuppaDuppaPlaceholder'"

Reported this way the errors are much easier to locate and fix, without the need to debug the script sources.

Hi,

My configuration is:

• Blender: 2.90
• DAZStudio: 4.12.1.118
• Bridge: 2.1.0

I've noticed that if IK mode is selected on any of rHand_IK, lHand_IK, rShin_IK or lShin_IK in the DazToBlender panel, that any movement of the corresponding bone in Pose mode will not work. That is, the bone will move, but the limb will not.

This appears to be due to the buttons on the panel not setting the Influence property in the Bone Constraint properties. If I manually set this to 1.0, the limb moves and to some extent tracks correctly until extreme positions are used, which can cause the limb to warp into an unnatural shape.

I can see the functions that do this in init.py.

def set_ik(data_path):
    set_ik_influence(data_path, 1.0)

def set_fk(data_path):
    set_ik_influence(data_path, 0.0)

After importing a figure, the translation is changed to English.

Hello,

I'm getting a persistent error every time I hit that Import New Genesis Figure in Blender Bridge. Everytime I try, it opens a Report: Error window just before loading the character. The character is then loaded with a bunch of errors in the rig, in the character's accessories, none of the body morphs are imported, some accessories are misplaced, among others. Its just a mess. Could you give me some help?

I need highest quality so im using level 2 but the mesh gets pulled. Screen shot of issue in Blender. Also in Daz, after daz to blender does its thing it messes up my character. You can see its a scal


ing issues of some sort.

Transparency maps imported to Blender are using the alpha channel instead of the Colour channel of the Texture Map node. All transparency textures I've ever seen in DAZ use black for transparent and white for opaque, not the alpha channel, so I have to go through all textures with transparencies on import and move the link from the alpha of the texture node to the color. This is very time-consuming, especially on things like hair objects which often have several channels.

Everything normal so far also in the tab:
Command List -> Here I see the text field with the search button "Command".

Click -> Import New Genesis Figure
The Genesis figure (Genesis 8) is imported and displayed.

But now the interface will be updated once and the tab
Command List is changed. The button disappears and only the text field remains.

I can enter commands here but nothing happens.

In addition, the "genital.dsa" menu item works in DAZ but the morphs etc. are not imported into Blender.
This is probably because the CommandBox does not work.
Also, Python error messages appear from time to time.
However, I missed to save them. Since I had updated the bridge afterwards and since then the command box no longer works. Now I can not reproduce the errors.

Edit:
After some more testing I was able to enter commands again.
However, when I do this, the following error (Python error) appears every time:

I imported a genesis 8 model from DAZ to Blender and some of the shapekeys end up corrupted somehow.

• The shapekeys work as intended in viewport solid mode
• Viewport rendered mode (Cycles or Eevee) work without the shapekeys set
• Setting the shapekeys and setting the viewport in rendered mode freezes Blender to a halt

The reason that makes the think the shapekeys end up corrupted somehow is that if I create a new shapekey [from mix], then the new shapekey works as intended.

I reported this bug to Blender as well
https://developer.blender.org/T87971

and every other keyframes have same pose with first frame.
so importing animation is not importing animation, it just does only import first pose of animation during animation period.
I'm using Blender 2.92 and Daz Studio 4.15 Pro.

first frame of importing g8 female - bow-g8f

50th frame of same model

So when I export my figure with my animations to Blender using the Daz3D to Blender Bridge, it creates all the keyframes but nothing happens.
Seems like all the keyframes are just set for a location, but they're all the same location.

I'm not sure what I can do anymore, I tried a bunch of different animations but it's the same for all.
I tried different genesis figures, but couldn't get any working.
I'm running Blender 2.93 and Daz Studio 4.15 Pro and DazToBlender 2.3.7

What is coming through though?
The textures, the poses, props, pretty much everything else.

I have created an empty Genesis 8 character in Daz studio 4.15. Did not add anything, no hair, no cloths, no morphs. I have exported it using Daz to Blender exporter (without morphs and without animation). Used "To Rigify" functonality. Most of the rig works correctly, but one vertex on the head and whole upper portion of teeth does not seem to follow after the rig. This deforms the head as in picture : https://prnt.sc/11vrvvo

Clarity: The export script appears to transfer the current shape regardless of morphs chosen in this dialog, so when this appears it's not immediately clear that it's possible to skip it without picking anything and have the character exported as-is.

Workflow: An option on the previous dialog like "Export no morphs/Export current or active morphs only/Use last selection/Load preset/Display morph transfer dialog" would be helpful for those times where I just want to export a scene as quickly as possible without fidgeting with the morph selection.

Spent all day with the new update 2.31...Install from Daz Central..and Installs in Blender 2.9...But you can't activate it as Blender doesn't know it has been installed. No sign of a zip file anywhere...
Made up a new zip from the DBT folder Central installed in Blender 2.9 and was able to activate it...first try to import Daz Character ended in this error...

Hi,

I've posted this issue from the Daz3D Blender forum (https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/469551/daz-to-blender-update-2-0). My configuration is:

• Blender: 2.90
• DAZStudio: 4.12.1.118
• Bridge: 2.1.0

The Issue

I've noticed that an imported figure (g3f or g8f) has issues with the shape of the mesh around the joints (i.e. shoulders, elbows and feet). This occurs if the figure is imported in a non-default pose or is imported with a default pose and subsequently posed in Blender.

1. Load Genesis 8 figure
2. Run the script. In the DAZ to Blender: Morph Names dialog, copy/paste the morphs below to be exported with the figure.
3. Export figure from DAZ.
4. Import figure in Blender.

If the figure is in its default pose, there is no issue. However if the figures is posed, it becomes apparent that some of the shapekeys are not being applied correctly. In the example below, I have posed the feet - the figures right foot is the correct shape (after a fix I applied to the driver), whilst the left foot has the original driver and shows the issue.

There are 2 types of issues with the drivers:

1. The formula is wrong (i.e. the result of the formula is not a positive value and so the shapekey is not applied).
2. The rotation axis the shapekey is applied to is wrong.

I went digging through the bridge files and found Database.py in AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.90\scripts\addons\DTB. The two sections of interest are tbl_mdrive_g3 and tbl_mdrive. These tables set up the drivers and the properties in these tables backed up what I was seeing in Blender, so if I was to fix the issues I was seeing, it would be here.

The Solution

Two tables have been modified. Below is a snapshot of the changes I've made. I should note that, I don't know what happens with characters beyond G3F and G8F base figures or to clothing.

tbl_mdrive_g3=[                                                             # Rotations: X = 0, Y = 1, Z = 2

]

I have noticed that if figure uses a morph that has a translation in it and fixes it by adding opposite translation applied to the hip (Daz Studio -> "Height" parameter for example), then whole rig does not match the figure. It is translated precisely by that translation on the hip.

Reproduction:
Create G8F in Daz studio
Change Height using Shapes (Actor->Full Body->Real World->Height).
Export to Blender
Import in blender
Observe whole rig translated.

Check Y translation on G8F hip
Observe that translation in blender matches that translation value in daz studio.

Hello,

I downloaded the DazToBlender bridge after a long time, the new version seems to be v2.3.6.

When I export the model from Daz using the script, it seems to work fine but when I try to import it into Blender with the plugin I get this error (pastebin link below) and the bones seems to be lumped together on the head for some reason, could you please check and tell me what I am doing wrong here? I didnt have this problem when I used to use v2.3.1

Thank you.

I am a very new user to Blender. I have created a simple scene with animation in Daz (empty room, Gen 8.1 figure, clothing in obj seq I created in CLO3D, and runway walk animation). The whole thing works fine in Daz, have even rendered it out. But I wanted to try rendering the animation and scene in Blender to cut down on rendering time. I am using the Daz to Blender bridge. Export from Daz seems to work okay. Import into Blender is the tricky part. If I click on import new Gen character, she loads in fine, but is missing her clothing, the environment & the animation seems to come in but doesn't actually do anything when I hit play.
If I click import new environment/props I get the error message below. No idea what I am doing wrong or if it is a bug. Please help.

A possible solution is to add a manual path selection box in blender's side of the bridge add-on.

Hello guys, thanks for your work on the bridge.

I was getting some errors while importing my figure, so I decided to run some tests to try to understand the causes. I'm sharing the results to try to help.

I used the eye blink morphs for the test.

• long names on single morphs: no console error

• long labels on single morphs: no console error

• long names on drive morphs: no console error

• long labels on drive morphs: import error

• long labels on drive morphs and on the morphs that are driven: import error if the sum is high

• special characters on names on drive morphs: no error

• special characters on labels on drive morphs: no error

I think this issue could be solved if after importing the fbx file all morph labels are trimmed to the max length of 63 characters before running the other functions.

This KeyError: 'the length of IDProperty names is limited to 63 characters' seems to be the root cause.

It's better than previous versions, but still causes some issues. This is a Gen 8 figure.

Shapekeys are also still missing.

I have upgraded to the latest version 2.3.1
Like in the title... After exporting Genesis 2 char and moving to blender the plugin imports... nothing
It worked fine before the upgrade

please help

thanks

(I don't even have a "D:/" drive)
I know It is just a pre-release but I wanted to tell, you in case this is not known :)

Version 2.1.0
In this version only Expressions is being imported into Blender.
I tried selecting the new Presets but they doesn't import:
Face Controls
Expressions
Visemes
All Body Morphs

Only bones is showing up and not the visual rig. Maybe this is on purpose and Rigify is the way to go now?

I'm working on a Tutorial that is utilizing this Addon and it's not that this addon should be catered to my needs. But i do feel that the goal of this addon should be to Export a fully rigged character with all the correct morphs, and every feature on top of that is a nice to have, like animation, posing etc.

Exporting from Daz3D, is not very intuitive when it comes to deciding Morphs. Even with minimal morphs ticked, it will export all expressions that I have installed.

Possible solution:

Having a section for each type of morphs like:
Joint Corrective Morphs(JCM) (Select one)
Flexions (Select one)
Expressions (Select multiple)
Visemes (Select multiple)
and for genesis 8.1
FACS (Select one)
FACS Units (Select one)
All standard morphs are selected by default.

Quick example mockup - maybe having the same export window for every bridge would make sense?
Maybe include subdivision in this window?

This would make it a lot more clear what is being exported.

When exporting from Daz to other DCC, morph detail is lost and this makes the teeth's, morphs look really bad as it's being exported in subdivision 0 in most cases.
For Blender i usually export in SubD 1 to keep some of the details, but this slows me down when it comes to animation/posing.

Possible solution:
could be to implemented Daz3D Subdivision Algorithm "Catmark" into other DCC, i tried searching about this "Catmark" algorithm but i didn't find much about. But it seems to be based on Open Subdiv which most DCC supports.

Or it would have to be specific for each DCC, in Blenders case maybe Multires could help?

1. Replaced DS scripts with items from package. Behavior is updated; morph selection panel appears. It's unclear if it will automatically include those with changed values or if I need to locate and select all of them individually.
2. Replaced Blender plugin scripts. Validated correct version shows in preferences panel. Tool panel is updated with new buttons.
3. In DS: Attempted to export existing 8.1 figure, completed export script inputs, waited for process to complete.
4. In Blender plugin: "Import new Genesis figure" produces error: "Appropriate FBX does not exist!"
5. Loaded new, empty DS scene, new 8.1 figure, repeated process and got same error from Blender plugin.

I was wondering how your 2.79 version is coming. Ive already made mine, but that was done with older version of this script.

I tried new importer with my actor. but it only show error log plane in blender scene.
I tried to remove problem,

1. remove daz product shoes (which hide poligons I suppose)
2. remove non daz official genitals.
   3 attach daz official genitals .

then import to blender.

So I clear understand, this importer seems not support for G3 genitals even though it is daz official.
My request is simple , please show more interest for Genesis3 as same as Genesis8 for daz official blender plug in.
(Then many product which daz sold use hide poligons for shoes, or there are many graft items. I really expect they can be imported without show error plane about official plug in.
