Hey,

How do I get the Yule Cottage scene from Howie Farkes from Carrara to DAZ Studio? Everytime I try to navigate in Carrara to find that product so I can make an attempt to see how to get it into DAZ Studio, Carrara locks up & I can't do anything.

Thanks.

++++

OK, I got it loaded (via open & naviagting with the browser dialogue to the location of the YuleTide .CAR scene)  but how is the best way to save it for use in DAZ Studio & the scene be intact?! There is DAZ Collada, FBX, 3DS, OBJ,  and other formats.

Ugh! I wouldn't have bought had I know it was Carrara only. 

Also, why does Carra lock up whenever I switch to the 'Smart Content' tab?

    As it uses Carrara terrains, trees , sky etc I very much doubt that it can be transferred to DS.

    stay out of the smart content tab

    use the scene or object browser

    I dont have Yuletide cottage but as its mesh the building should export as an obj

    trees you can check show full detailed mesh in the tree modelling room to get leaves

    you won't get the replicated ones but the single trees are massively high poly anyway so better off instancing them in DAZ studio

    you will need to use DS shaders on everything

    Thanks. I guess I'll keep it as I quite like the scene & rebuild it as you say in DAZ Studio. Thanks.

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. I was looking at the way the snow covering spruce were made. DAZ Studio can't do that.
