How to transform a zbrush ZTL file to a fie which is compatible to genesis 8 female figure of Daz

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

I've got a pair of gloves which I'm deadly fond of, but it is a ZTL file, when I used the Goz to transfer it to the Daz, it showed no texture but a base glove, so something must be wrong with it. How can I transform it into a duf or obj file which can be weared by genesis 8 female figure? Thank you so much for answering!!

    I don't work with zbrush or GOZ, but you should be able to export out of zbrush in the .OBJ format and then import it into DS. Then comes the hard part of rigging it so you can use it on GF8.

    The biggest thing you're going to need to do is get the textures out of zBrush, since those are what's missing. I'm not at the PC right now, so I don't remember exactly what you need to do to do that.

    I've got a pair of gloves which I'm deadly fond of in Zbrush tool file, and I want to use it in my genesis8female figure, but it seemed that it can't be fixed to it, so could some please help me to do this? Thank you so much for this, I'm much obliged!

    Maybe as a beginner you have no idea what work is involved in creating a so called "conforming figure" inside of Daz Studio it is not just pressing a few buttons and convert a ZBrush to Daz Studio file format.

    Here is a tutorial that comes close to what you trying to do:

    TUTORIAL- Transferring Clothing between DAZ and ZBrush - BEWARE THE SOCKMAN!

    This is not an easy task but I don't know your experience in ZBrush or Daz Studio. If its your first try to "fit" some imported clothing geometry to a genesis figure I would say for practice start with something "simple" like a dress, even this can get very complicated. Especialy gloves with all the smale finger joints very close to each other are the most difficult clothes. I've coverted a pair of gloves made for genesis 1 to genesis 2 female and I know what I'm talking about.

    In general to create a clothing item out of an imported mesh you can use the Transfer Utility. Set the Source: Genesis 8 Female and Target: Gloves. This sounds simple but if the gloves are not modeled to fit to the genesis figure there will be even more work.
