    Notes

    Setup Instructions:

      • 1- Install the Unity Bridge.
      • 2 - At the same time, have your Unity Project open for an automated process (using HDRP with 7.3+; we recommend Unity 2019.4).
      • 3- In Daz Studio: Open up your character in Daz Studio.
      • 4- Make sure any clothing or hair is parented to the main body.
      • 5- Locate Daz to Unity under File > Send to... > Daz to Unity.
      • 6- A dialog will pop up and choose where you wish to export to; choose an ‘Assets’ folder inside your project for Unity.
      • 7- Choose the name you wish the folder in Unity to be and choose what type of conversion you wish to do: either “Stash Mesh” (no skeleton), “Skeletal Mesh” (Character or with joints), or “Animation” (character must already be transferred).
      • 8- Choose which Morphs you wish to transfer
      • 9- Once you press accept, the file will transfer over in Unity.
      • If this does not happen automatically, locate the DTU file and launch the Daz to Unity bridge window via “Daz3D -> Open Daz3DBridge Window”, ensuring the DTU file is selected, and click the thumbnail button in the top right corner of the window.
      • 10- Attach the diffusion profiles under Assets/Daz3D/DiffusionProfiles to your HDRenderPipelineAsset (typically this lives in Assets/Settings/HDRenderPipelineAsset) in the Material -> Diffusion Profile List
      • 11- After that, you’re done and your character is ready for whatever comes next!

        *Please note that the import can take a few minutes, especially for a large or complex figure. The transfer will take longer on the first import.
