So very much appreciate this tutorial on Daz clothes to CC. I have had some success with it. Thank you!

Hello Fellow Travelers in the World of Graphic Art.

I like Marvelous Designer and I can use it. Is there a way I can transfer MD clothes to Blender and apply it in Character Creator?
Thank you

Thank you MANY times Galfridus!!!   I can't tell you how many swear words I yelled at my computer screen trying to figure this out, so i wanted anyone else in my position to not have to go through that.....  So glad it has helped you!!  :D

Hi Sbaerman!  Thanks for the feedback!  I'm not sure why it was only 360p, but I have now re-loaded it and it should be at a better quality...  Let me know if that isn't so..

Thank you Cartoon Components for this really useful vid. I tried it and it works great.

I`m particularly pleased to learn from it a new  routine to transfer weights when using Blender 2.77a.
I`m sure this will be very helpful to all like me who are just starting to use blender with CC.
Thanks again

Geoff.

Hi Cartoon Components. Great video, any chance you have that in higher resolution. Youtube has it only in 360p :-(

Hello everyone!!  Ok, I see some of you are as frustrated as i have been trying to import clothing from sources like Daz3d, Poser, or OBJs to CC 1.5 for custom clothing....   The Reallusion Tutorials only instruct you to make clothing, or pass it through Maya... Now I have NO problem with Maya, i think it's a great program, But i don't have thousands of dollars a year to get a subscription... (especially since I'm saving up for that Perception Neuron 32 Alum Edition package)... :D  So I decided to try blender for the first time and after many, MANY failures, have finally figured it out.... (I think)...   I don't know if others have figured it out and aren't able to or don't want to share what they know, but i will....  There probably is a better way to do it, but it works...  I'm a newbie to all of this, and learning as i go...   Hope this helps!! cheers!!  :w00t:    (Blender 2.77, 3dXchange 6 pipeline, CC 1.5, iClone 6)

That`s excellent news.:D

Blender was unknow territory. I found after struggling myself with new and unfamiliar routines a little success was the essential motivator.
I read a comment from Rampa somewhere on the forum (can`t remember where) that Blender 2.77a was the version to use because the .fbx export was better. That`s why I did the web search to find how to "transfere the body weights" in that newer version and became able to move on from Blender 2.73a to 2.77a. I`ve since used 2.77a to follow Rampa`s "body suit" and "sewing" tuts. He has certainly done great work to support Iclone CC users.

Still so much I want to do and can`t do yet but having taken these hesitant initial steps I`m feeling on a "positive buzz" to want to learn more.
So pleased you too finally got things working.

Good Luck.:)

Geoff.

@Galfridus,

I finally got it to work but not without some tweaking after trying your suggestion to use Blender 2.73a.  It was me all along, I started out following rampa's tutorial on making a body suit and in that tut he had us hide the armature bones and that's how I set up the "startup file", being relatively clueless about Blender's UI I didn't know any better and kept clicking on the Armature's name in the scene list and of course that was never going to work, ha-ha-ha! :laugh:

It was after looking over your last pics that I saw the bones sticking out and had an "AH-HA!!" moment then figured it out from there.  I'll put something together tomorrow to show what I have to do to get it to work in case someone else gets lost in the shuffle! :)

I fully understand and being so new to all this myself I only have one other possible suggestion to offer from my own very, very limited experience.

When I first started to try this last week I followed the vid by Alimayo Arangov which was posted earlier in this thread
How To Attach Clothes To A Rigged Character Mesh In Blender 2.73
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVfTRwXpmuQ

I got very frustrated that it did not work after many attempts. Only later did I find out I had downloaded the latestest version of Blender 2.77a for which the instructions  for copy body weights in the vid are no longer appropriate.

So...... I downloaded Blender 2.73a from here.
https://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.73/
I had my first success using that older version and simply following the vid.

It was later, after some research, that I found the method to work with the latest 2.77a here:-
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34719718/transferring-rig-weights-from-one-mesh-to-another-in-blender-2-76/34760742#34760742

Maybe following the vid with an earlier version of Blender will give you success, as it did for me and help restore your flagging spirits?
I installed the older version of Blender without having to delete my newer version.
Just a thought.:)
