Fitting and Rigging Trousers without MD Auto Fit
🕑 Added 2023-12-25 23:45:35 +0000 UTCMerry Christmas, everyone!
I’ve managed to record a couple more Marvelous Designer videos yesterday and finished editing one of them this morning. I thought they’d make a nice Christmas present for y’all :-)
I’ll show you how I’m fitting a pair of Marvelous Designer pants that were designed for an avatar I don’t know. MD’s auto-fit option doesn’t work for every garment, so I’m exporting the pants as is, fit my Genesis avatar to match, simulate, then import the Genesis base shape as morph target to get the proper fit for rigging.
Most “unknown avatars” are either in the A or T pose, but I’ve seen products that show the garment posed with a walk or gesture pose. This makes it that much harder, but my principle can be applied to those edge cases too: simply move Genesis into the position that best fits the garment, then import the Genesis base afterwards and let the avatar grow the garment into the A pose we need for Daz Studio. I’ll touch more on this later in the series.

I have more news, but I’ll leave that for tomorrow’s post in which we’ll rig some boots!
Enjoy the holidays, treat yourself to something nice and I’ll speak to you soon.
