importing daz poses in blender

mzxrae

I only recently started to export characters to blender and I now want to import a pose from daz and apply them on the character in blender or add them to the pose library. Ive already searched for quite a while now but couldnt find anything helpful. Does anyone of you know a simple solution or a good tutorial?

If you're using diffeo, there's an import pose option where you save the pose in daz as a pose preset, and apply it in Blender. In the Daz to Blender Bridge, there used to be an export pose option I believe, or if you posed it in Daz, it automatically exported that way into Blender. I haven't used the bridge in a long time, just diffeo now.

mzxrae,

Before I use Diffeomorphic to export the figure to Blender, I set the figure in A-pose within Daz. Apparently this helps to ensure the fingers and the feet/toes are posed correctly once a Daz pose is applied in Diffeo.  If you followed the instructions in the Diffeo blog for importing a figure and setting up the rig, then applying a pose is a matter of (1) selecting the rig/bones, then (2) clicking Import Pose to bring up a file dialog window, and (3) choosing the pose. (In the screen shot I've taken, I go directly into the My Daz 3D Library to pick out a pose in the subfolders.)

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
