What was the export options when exporting OBJ from Blender ? You need to at least check UV Coord. and Materials. Make sure there's no space character in the file name of OBJ / MTL. And except for the diffuse map, you have to manually assign other texture maps that you've baked.
No way to use UDIMs in daz.
Every UDIM tile needs to be at least it's own surface. Of course, can have multiple surfaces per UDIM also.
E.g., look at the Genesis figure. Each UDIM is its own surface.
So before exporting from Blender, make new materials for each UDIM and select them from the UV pane and then assign to new material
perfect that worked like you said it, thanks
In daz studio there's no support for udims the way blender and other professional apps do. You don't have udim textures nor udim tiles. The way daz studio deals with it is you set one surface per udim tile, then apply the texture to the surface as usual. The textures are always repeated over the uv space so they catch the udim tile no matter what.
