Hi Everyone!
I can't seem to find a tutorial on how to get a Daz Character/scene into Vue 5.  Can it be done? Or, if it can be done from Poser 6, how do I get Daz characters to show up there? All I have in there are James, Jessie, etc...

I'd be very thankful for any  advice!!

Hello lunchlady,

to use a D|S scene or character in Vue, you have to export it as (Wavefront).obj.

Go to "Files ->export" and choose .obj choose the destination (best is "My documents/e-on software/Vue 5") enter a name and in the export dialogue choose the size (I normaly use the C4D settings, open the advanced tab and validate at least "write mtl" and "collect maps" and hit OK.

In Vue choose "Files -> import object" and browse to your file, in the following dialogue choose center object and unselect "resize".

You will have to tweak the material settings and especially  add the transmaps which are not imported by default.

Hope that helps.
