plugin or script maya to daz

in Daz Studio Discussion

cubebrushe's weekly freebies is just featuring/offering this absolutely awesome android/robot. but it's for maya, and the author didn't join an obj/fbx or any general format other than maya. hence, the very few threads i saw here - afaik - aren't of any help since they either were written/replied by people who own maya and want to export to daz (so they can control the ex/import format), or they mention obj, fbx etc.

now i could have sworn that not so long ago, i saw either a plugin, a script or a new feature of DS concerning maya import in DS. but since my memory is quite arbitrary and likes to invent besides remembering, it could be in DS.. or pretty much anything. i checked 4.11 beta, nope. i also checked bryce, poser debut, wings3d and terragen demo since i own them too, nope. i haven't reinstalled my hexagon since it kept lagging/crashing.

and at the time i saw "this", i wasn't interested because i had no maya object whatsoever, so i didn't give it much attention... it just left this vague notion in my mind.

halp? this robot is fabulous, and i don't care if it stays rigged or not (would be awesome but not essential, this dude would make just an excellent statue).

    oooh noes. this is pretty recent, right? i think it's exactly what i saw... and it works in the wrong direction. darn. frown

    well, thanks a lot @Mattymanx for the heads up tho, it saved me more fruitless research on the net ~

    There is free trial of Autodesk Maya 
    perhaps you could use it to export the model to an obj file for a "statue" in Daz studio.

    mmh yeah, this crossed my mind too yesterday. but then i closed the AD page: for the whole (maybe)register/download/install/get used to the UI etc hassle to be really worth it since it only works for 30 days, i should (when i have time+energy+focus) bookmark or download a nice big heap of free maya models in advance and then only get the trial, then spend the 30 days converting as much items as i can.. just for the one unique robot - however beautiful - this would be.. well, a hassle ^^
