Hi guys,

I have an old model that I have not used in a while and want to use my clothes and what not on it... However it seems to not work. I can open it up in Daz. That works. However I can't get the clothing to work.

So far I've only tried using an older dress. The 'super dress and leggings'. It doesn't see my model as a thing to parent to and just stays all... standard sized. 

 

Do I need to remake my model entirely in the new daz?

    Have you selected the model in the scene tab before applying the clothing?

    EDIT: Also, what "Old Model" are you using? Genesis1? Victoria 2? Any further information would be useful.

    Hi BeeMKay,

     

    I have indeed got the model selected and I am using Genesis 2. By older model I mean that I made it a while ago. I've gone ahead an made a body similar to what i had (kinda like it better too lol) however if there is a solution, it'd be pretty great. I did make this model, about 2 years ago now and have only really played with it in Blender since so it could well be it's just, not compatible with the newest daz.

    Can you put the clothes correctly on a regular G2 that comes with DAZ Studio?

    Also, you mention Blender. Is it possible that you replaced the bones in your model? I mean, if it's not just morphs on the existing mesh that created your "old model", then the reason why the clothes don't work could be in the fact that your old model has a bone structure that is no longer recognized by DS as "Genesis 2".

    EDIT: Glad you found the source of the problem. smiley Happy renders!
