Hello there,

I'm new to Daz Studio, i love the program, but i can't seem to load the textures of a .dds file into the loaded.obj file, i have no idea how i have to do this, could you support me?

Thank you.

    DAZ Studio does not open DDS files I'm afraid.

    You would need to use something like Irfanview to open these files and save them out as JPEG or PNG to use them with an OBJ in DAZ Studio.

    Thank you for your feedback, however i have already changed the .dds files to PNG format but DAZ Studio still loads grey Objects.
    -The .PNG file has the same name as the .obj file

    What am i doing wrong?

    Import your OBJ model
    Go to the Surfaces pane (if it is not visible, Window > Tabs > Surfaces)
    Click on the triangle to the left of the Diffuse colour tab, and use the 'Browse' option to find and apply your texture.

    If the object is UV Mapped it should work, if not, you may need to map it or use a shader.
