Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 18 10:25 pm)
Subject: OptiTex/Genisis Daz models....is it mesh?
There will be jpeg textures, but no .obj. You will need to export it as an obj from Studio.
EDIT; grab one of the free ones and give it a try...

I imagine "opti-whatever" users over at the Daz forums might know for sure how to best export them from DS
Cheers
operaguy,
If you install in Daz and export an obj you will get a mesh of tris. 'Untriangle' and you will have one ugly quad mesh. None of which fulfill your quest for
"great clothing mesh with excellent texture maps". They need to be (precisely as in Marvelous Designer) retopologized before use.
Boring mesh = Boring material/texture.
not subscribed to marvelous designer, I use Mesh Lab.
http://meshlab.sourceforge.net/
If still interested I'll try one of the freebies first
not sure if it is worth the trouble of having to install and manipulate the daz studio thing just for this, however.

To illustrate,
Dowload the obj file "Jacket.zip" from
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10255731/jacket.zip
A file that is properly hand-topologized for optimal texture. Feel free to drop any picture on this mesh and tweak the tiling, scale and offset for astonishing results.
I think these will work in DS3, if you don't wish to introduce DS 4...

"so YES I was astonished"
And yes, I expected you to be! ;) The trick is both in the mesh and in the UV map.
"uvmap looked aweful"
After the material/texture is decided upon a normal UV map must be created for distribution. The easiest way to do this is to bake the texture in your modeling application.
Here is one more example (created from the unedited picture in the upper right corner)
I used Cinema 4D but that is not important.

I am always on the lookout for great clothing mesh with execellent texture maps. No morphs or conforming needed, as I am interested only in if it is a good candidate for dyanmics in Poser.
Like this ....

But is that mesh? If I purchase will I get actual .objs and .jpg texture maps?
I am not into the Studio/reality/genisis/opti world so have never found out "the hard way."
