By installing this DAZ Add-On for Poser, users can load Genesis figures directly into Poser and enjoy the benefits of both Poser AND the Genesis Figure Platform.

Figures, Props, Morphs and UVs created for Genesis can all be brought directly into Poser via the DSON importer.

Installing the DSON Importer for Poser. Open Poser, map your directory for your newly converted files. You can now navigate to the converted files in the Library and load. If you need help using the DSON Importer for Poser, please read: How to Use the DSON Importer for Poser. The Action to convert files for use in the DSON Importer for Poser can be found in the context menu of Content Library. Simply right-click on “Content Library” and choose “ Create Poser Companion Files.

No additional steps are required by Poser users to install or load compatible products.

This tutorial will walkyou through the process of importing a WaveFront .obj file that wasexported from DAZ or Poser 6 or version 7. By using the poseriopython programs you can get a really clean import from Poser with outthe need to adjust a lot of materials or uv maps after the import.The script also contains programs that will help you work around the16 material limit in Blender. You can skip step 3 if you are notinterested in how the process works.

Step 1 Setup your environment:

Updates are for figures with more than 4 vertex per face. A warning is printed in the command window and the face is not created. After import you can add the missing faces.
Unzip to a suitable directory, for example:
Windows: c:blenderstuffposerio
Linux: /home/yourid/blenderstuff/poserio

This package contains the programs to do the imports. It also has an import and export for making Morph Targets in Poser. Those are posermtexport.py and poserimport.py. One note on morph targets, you can only move vertices, do not scale, set smooth, rotate, add or delete anything or poser will fail to apply your morph correctly.

Update your PYTHONPATH to include the new directory created above.
1. If you do not have PYTHONPATH set you can determine what it should include by starting command or shell window (Both linux and Windows) in the directory from step 2.
2. Enter python printpypath.py
3. The output can be used to set your PYTHONPATH environment variable. Make sure you have included the directory that contains poserio programs.
  1. Linux: you can add it to your .profile or .bashrc in your home directory or in the shell before you start blender. The ouput from the command would be cut/pasted into the command: export PYTHONPATH=theoutputhere
  2. Windows: bring up control panel, select system then the advanced tab. At the bottom will be a button for Environment Variables. Select that button and then under User Variables select new. Enter PYTHONPATH for the name and paste the output from the command above.

Step 2 Export from Poser or DAZ:

Blender does have a limit of 16 materials per mesh object. Whenyou complete the import the figure in blender all objects youselected will become one mesh. Later in this tutorial I will havesteps you can follow to collapse materials with the same UV image mapinto one material name. As you select your figures to export plan ahead. You will be better off if you export one figure at a time.

In DAZ or Poser create, pose and apply any textures and expressions you want. Do not use Dynamic Hair, it cannot be imported correctly and will cause parts of your figure to be missing after import.
1. Poser: from the file menu select export, WaveFront OBJ, then single frame. From the Hierarchy Selection panel de-select Universe and select the figure and parts you want to become one object in Blender.
  1. Select a file name the pick the following export options:
  1. Select Ok and the object will be exported.
2. Poser has a python script to copy the scene inventory to a directory, including the materials. From the window menu select Python scripts. From the pop up box select Utility Functions then Collect Scene Inventory. From the Copy all selection item choose the same directory you exported the .OBJ file. When the script is done you can delete the extra items collected if you want. You only need the images, the .obj file you specified and it's associated .mtl file.
3. DAZ: Select File, Export, enter a name for the file. In the export options panel make sure you select the boxes for Write normals and Write UV coordinates.
  1. DAZ will copy the images to a MAP subdirectory in the same location as the .obj file.
Any procedural textures you have used such as 3D clouds, noise etc will not get imported. Those textures will need to be re-applied once in Blender. The import process will turn each Material into a Image Texture so you will be able to easily add back any procedural textures.

Step 3 .obj file and .mtl file background 101:

The import process will make more sense if you have a basicunderstanding of what is in the .obj file and the .mtl file.

OBJ file

The .obj file is a text file thatcan describe 3D objects. Each line of the file is either a comment, aline starting with # or a tag line. The tags we are interested in forthis tutorial are:

mtllib : This tag give the file name of the material lib, .mtl file. The poserio importer expects the file referenced by this line to be in the same path as the .obj file, or be a relative path from the .obj files path.
v : This tag is a vertex coordinate. They will be referenced as a array of tags, starting with the first one found in the file.
vt : A texture vertex coordinate, as with the v tag it will be referenced as an array starting with the first one found in the file.
vn : Vertex normal coordinate, not used by the poserio import process.
f : This is a face tag for creating the faces. The correct format is four pairs of v/vt/vn or v//vn. The number referenced is the index number of the v, vt or vn
