Quote - Bryce should let you export as OBJ. If it won't, I doubt the bridge will do a better job. That won't group the mesh, however, and although that isn't essential for TriAx figures I would advise getting some kind of modeller and doing it - and also assigning material zones, or at least renaming them if Bryce exports the divisions you want.
I have exported from Bryce to DAZ Studio using the bridge. the problem has been that it only exports well for simple groups, and they are no longer grouped in DAZ Studio. Also, when I tried to import several groups one at a time into DAZ Studio from Bryce, they would then need assembling, and I'm still not familiar with the way to keep everything together when I tranlate it within the scene. Sometimes when I am using the bridge either to or from both programs, they will crash. So I think saving my model in Wavefront.obj format would be the best option; then import the file directly into DAZ Studio from the folder I saved it to.
There's another problem that relates to this. It is the way the content library is set up. I've read that a model does not have to be in the content library until you are ready to put it there, but that kind of thing is way over my head for now. Perhaps when I have a lot more experience with DAZ Studio I'll know all of this stuff.
It would be great if the guide was complete and available now for DAZ Studio.
