How to make simple morphing props with UV textures in Lightwave 3D Modeler for use in DAZ|Studio
You can use Lightwave Modeler to make simple morphing props that you can then use in DAZ|Studio. However, you’ll need two plugins and a few extra steps, especially if you are going to use texture maps and morphs. In Lightwave Modeler, you’ll need to install Dodgy’s .mtl import/export plugin (available for free at http://dodgy.ghostoutpost.com/Lscripts.html ). In DAZ|Studio, you’ll need to purchase the DAZ Morph Loader plugin, which is available at the DAZ store under “3rd Party Products” for about $10. And keep in mind that you cannot directly transfer a boned character from LW to DAZ|Studio and have the bones work. LW bones cannot be converted into anything usable in DAZ|Studio. Also, DAZ|Studio uses only UV mapping to map textures on its surfaces. There is no projection mapping in DAZ|Studio, as there is in LW. And DAZ|Studio requires a separate .mtl file, which describes the surface UV mapping, to be associated with any .obj file. Since LW does not have the capability to generate a .mtl file, you’ll need to Dodgy’s plugin to perform that function. And unfortunately, the Wavefront .obj file format does not include the endomorphs generated in Modeler. However, you can still transfer morphs from LW to DAZ|Studio by making a separate .obj file for each object, which includes the complete object with the morph applied. You then load the base object into DAZ|Studio, and use MorphLoader to load each morph object.
