Creating Genesis Clothing for Carrara

Hi all,
I am trying to create some Genesis clothing that will work in Carrara 8.5 beta and have run into a problem . I don't use poser or Daz studio that much so I may be missing something simple here or may be using the wrong terms.
Here is what I have done.

1. In Carrara 8.5 public beta I have modeled my test skirt object using Genesis as a reference and exported as an obj file.
2. Imported the obj file into Daz 4.6 , the skirt is in the right place on the Genesis figure.
3. I use the Transfer Utility to conform/fit the skirt to the Genesis figure.
4. The skirt moves properly when I move the legs or figure.
5. When I transform the figure using the morph dials the skirt also morphs as well, so everything looks good.

So , how do I save the skirt object so I can use it in Carrara 8.5. Do I somehow save the skirt in Daz's Content library which will then show up in Carrara? I don't know how to save the skirt in Daz properly or what to do next.

If anyone can help, I would appreciated it.
Thanks
Mike

    In DAZ Studio you have to save it as a Wearable Preset. If this is something for other than personal use then you need to save the support asset first. :) Once that is done it will work in both DS and Carrara. If you run the script to create Poser Companion Files, it can also work in Poser. :)

    Daz Spooky ,
    Thanks for the response. I did try to save the skirt in Daz as a Wearable Preset but it didn't show up in the Daz Studio Content Library. I tried again after your post here and I can get it to show up in Daz studio so it should work in Carrara now. Where do you find the Poser Script you were talking about? Is this the Save As/Poser preset?
    Thanks for the help.

    There is a nice tutorial on that. :) Not much sense in repeating it here. :)
