Transcripts

welcome friends I'm real with fear with

w3 productions today I want to do an

update video on using the gas importer

for blender

this will be the gas importer version

1.4 and we will be importing a model

into blender 2.8 and I just want to kind

of consolidate some of lessons learned I

had in previous video so we can go

through the basic steps of installing

jazz importer add-ons in the studio you

can version 4.1 one I believe and also

installing the plug-in to blender 3d as

well let's go ahead and get started

you can get all the instructions and

b-bow for the dads importer at

diffeomorphisms bought calm and this is

created by Thomas Larson and if you have

any issues I believe there is a bit

bucket site you can go to so I'm just

going to right click on this development

burden link

and it takes you to the bitbucket where

you can also get the development version

of the plug-in so you would just

download that repository but there's

also a button here or a link here for

issues

so yet issue you can create a new issue

here they gotta make an account and then

put here and that's probably the best

way to get responses to issues and bugs

with the plugin

then anyways you can get the mm need or

two zip files first part II is the gas

[Music]

importer plugin for blender itself

so you can download it from this link

right here

let's go to your downloads directory

what you would do is go to the blender

you go to edit

preferences

and you would install from zip you look

for your file with my downloads

and it will be something along the lines

of

maybe I like alone here

diffeomorphism port you get to get

diversion find out what version you

downloaded the file name and you click

on that you install from add-on file

when we do that you would have the

latest one be included in the list okay

it doesn't erase old plugins so what you

would have to do is make sure that the

version number matches the one you just

downloaded enable that one and uncheck

the ones that are old

I guess if you wanted to put cleanup

purposes you could go ahead and hit the

remove button that would

get rid of old plugins

anyways my default is to always autosave

premises so you don't do that make sure

you go ahead and hit save

preferences

and you've hit the end key

the properties you will see a new tab

for - runtime click on that and the

first thing we're going to do right now

is just go to settings and click on -

path to Dad's library and what you want

are the make sure you have the right

pass for your your content

- studio because basically what you

doing the import is this making

represents a pointers to your actually

get your dad's library content so you're

going to need at least these three on

this last one for your IRA shaders and

then there were two for your content and

this somewhere along the lines of these

paths it just Windows 10 machine it may

be different for your using Mac OS or

I'm not even sure this looks more

something Linux but here you didn't

women to be a different path setup so

this is also a log file for errors so

take note of that if you ever had any

issues importing something they might be

some helpful hints in the error log file

you know these are wrong when you import

dad's value error out so you have to

make sure it was critical to make sure

that these are set correctly

all right the next part we need to do to

set up is go to - studio only to create

a basically a new function and a studio

to import JSON data because you gonna be

importing a dub file but it doesn't have

all the information needed for blender

so the way they developed it is you also

have to explore a some data in a JSON

file

so to do that and I already have mine

set up but I want to go through with it

to show you how it was done I go to

window

you go to work space

we will then go to customize

and you want to expand I'll click on

custom you want to create a new custom

[Music]

did we dis come on do it again to be

dead custom action and we'll create a

new custom action

so create new custom action

what you want to call the ink on

anything you want the instructions say

call it

export basic data I already have one

Samba for this tutorial only I'm going

to call it something different

explore JSON data

and then the if you want to you can

create a description

then you want to click on

this icon right here would be three dots

and that's going to take you to a open

prompt one excuse me

find the foul prompt

when that's looking for is this export

basic data DSA file and you get that

when you download the upper part so

believe you definitely posit Ori

you

and when you download that file

repository nom Cana

jumping around here but uh cuz I already

had it downloaded you're going end up

with the window or a folder called FeO

movie import - he unzip that and that

should have

it should have a - - studio folder and

has that export data file that's the

file you want to appoint to the net

prompt

you select that open it

and then you go ahead and hit accept

and now you go to the menus tab on the

right-hand pane

and then open you can put this button

anywhere you want but they recommend

doing it on the bow

menu so you can go to the main menu bar

get open file and then drag it where you

want it to be in that menu so I'll just

put it under the import/export area so I

was dragging here right near the Myo

button then hit apply

and the set

and now I already have a character here

that I want to export to blender it is

pretty much ready to go it is based off

the Genesis to female model it's a

character with a wedding dress on so now

I want to save that character just like

I would anything else in dad studio my

first time working with it so I will hit

go on my characters directory

call it and we'll call this one wedding

phile doesn't take long then the next

step I need to do is go to file

usually opposite you'll be hitting the

export basic data button that is did it

a second time and call it a something

different something like this export

JSON data

now very important you want to co-locate

those two files to save it in the same

directory you want to call it the same

thing so I'm gonna call it wedding as

well usually when you start typing

Stephan name of a file that you did for

just you're in the same directory with

dot def it to be in so it helps you know

that you call it the right thing

it's save

three months and should be a which is

exported a foul

yes that your JSON file has been saved

until you get the location now we

shouldn't need a studio anymore so I'm

going to close that

let's go to blender

we want to start off here by deleting

the default cube

go back to be dad run time

it's import dad's file go to the

location of my character

you can click on either button the

aurita icon the duck file itself or the

teen huge space to connect thumbnail

picture it will import it all the same

just like that going down here briefly

to the import settings you can change

the scale or the character when you

import it

forget the default might be a default

one but for the singer hour I was doing

I mean the scale of point zero one and

so that's my default i from mesh fitting

i usually leave it at JSON file have no

reason to change it skin color and close

color is basically the shading that's

coming to you the character when you're

in solid be this is not the color that

you're closing render to you to just

reference color for when you're in

working a solid

so that means I'm only hit import day as

well and they took a few moments to

import

you

so here we have our character is been

imported

again that the reference colors are

disappointing according to what type of

mesh it is

I'll go ahead and just briefly show you

what was I can render to you from a

default and then we'll go ahead and go

through these options here on the right

and see what they do

I went ahead and went to the what's it

called again

the look give instead of going fully the

rendered view

just for save some resources and took a

while for the shaders to compile and

that's what took me a while

and here's our character and for most

part the shaders look okay I don't

particularly care for all the glossiness

at the skin but we couldn't probably

adjust that later and the hand color is

a little weird but it might been a

material that I applied in dad studio

usually doesn't I don't have a problem

with the

hair color - that's a weird incident

anyway going back to solid view I will

you can see that when you import a new

character using the importer it creates

its own collection so that's very good

for organizations sake but you'll also

notice that each material clothing or

each material object has its own

armature so let's say

I picked the selected slippers

it has its own armature to highlight it

and never hit G it will move separately

however if I move the character notices

to female

some of the clothing does not follow it

that's because if they are not parented

to the body's mesh there's a way we can

do that nests in the first tab right

here the first menu call Corrections

so you open up or check co-op

Corrections you have a couple things you

can do here you can merge toes if you

don't plan on moving individual toes you

can merge them into one

what doubt how you don't bother about do

it for this sake of this tutorial

you see both phones are now gone from

their mesh from the armature

the

adding extra face bones kind of give you

more

facial bones for all the more so shaky

that can go on their face so I need to

make go ahead and do that

that's not an apparent what goes on but

you open up another bone layer and see

what's going on with that

I'll give that to that in a moment I

want to go ahead and do the merge rigs

part so you want to spur slick all the

other

our armatures then slip them one for the

body so the whole ship can slip each one

here then slip the one for the body and

they click on merge rigs

never seen a outliner that most of them

went ahead and merged into one but dig

down deeper there are some couple more

objects that

as um risks like the hair

i'ma do the same thing here both shift

select all those then hit the

body image and one more time and hit

merge rigs so you do each one one at a

time or you do down

all at once

so

movie body

clothing moves with it

so that's enough for corrections

materials you can change the color of

the shading in solid view that's all

that's about

you can do different things with you

these and I won't get into that you save

the textures after you edit edit it down

hopefully

Morse something I use more often update

more apps you can input the Morse from

like smiling the fising different facial

gestures can you do that ear so you

update more apps show you what's

available if and these buttons will

actually load those into the character

you want to see what they are before you

do it hit show units will show you all

the ones that you have available to you

never late a key hit the load button so

you see mouth open Brown Club closed

lips eyes all that that's just under

this first one

or faking this do you have expressions

concentrate happiness sad things like

that advising all your mouth shake when

you speak me have also one for

corrective

which guess who have to do that yourself

to remove those

so I'll just you hit e twenties they

take a look a few moments to be aware of

that

you

so we're back after loading the face

units the expressions and the vibes ears

they took about a minute each to do

and if you scroll down this tool you'll

see them at the bottom so let's zoom in

a little bit better on the character

and let's open up each one of these so

you can see base units they're basically

all sliders so

that was a bad one cuz the brat was

moving the brows but it's a very faint

expression so let's find a better one

I squint the left eye I want to give

this a little bit more room to see the

full title

doing the jaw

50 frame each one of those as you desire

let's go over quickly the expressions

you can of course combine all these

because they are all sliders and that

mutually exclusive

or they smile sad

[Music]

glare

you

and then Visine so so you won't get a

sound yes

so you do that you want to do so manual

lip-syncing

didn't want to know you might have

noticed and this particular model the

body is kind of poking through the met

just the skirt mesh and that's just an

issue I had and dad studio look that

particular clothing that's not an issue

the dad's importer or blender so that's

just a bad example I use were a

character mesh

moving right along let's go through the

menus of finishing you can optimize

those for I cavers FK you can say this

they apply disposed as my rest pose can

also convert the skeleton or the

armature to be a make MH x which was the

make human armature that may may not be

as relevant today as made many years ago

but he won't move like he's making human

and just maybe option that you need

and convert to rigify and create a meta

rage so I do how to use the

convert to ratify and I will give you a

break if I are mature and so

that is an option not gonna do it here

for tutorial but let you know that that

is available

that's set up you can create low poly

versions of your mash make certain parts

of it

visible

mash if I'm not sure what that thing

does court he always go back to this

website to get more details on with

please thing goes

rigging you can actually take your

current rig so this is a dad there's a

Genesis to female you convert it to

another rig if you had a reason to do so

so any other Genesis rig or attempt to

do so it's not guaranteed to work but it

will give it a good try

it also do a seeing you ugly left at

Carnegie Mellon University rig I guess

if you want to apply those bb-8 bhp

deviates file for the motion capture

files I guess you can try to do that by

choosing this

Kabhi bone and cut poses mannequins and

create goals for ike a target like RK

inverse kinematic targets

let's see what we got here

just trying to give a brief overviews

that are going into

each one

so we got drivers or morphs you can edit

and adjust

there you can actually do the cycles

hair versus having a air mesh

USA I deleted this and I want to start

from here using the hair system particle

system if you have available in blender

you can start that right here

going back to settings

you can low save your settings you have

took my defaults left to use every time

you can save that a little bit here

again the path to the library that

you're going to make sure you definitely

fill those out

general

[Music]

Matt I guess those are the proper limits

for like sliders and things change it's

negative one to one didn't get any

features I'm not sure what that does

exactly

whether you limit things to the dad's

property limit so you won't go beyond

them

rigging adding face drivers

one funky connected rotation when it

locks

usually your letter is

materials how you want to treat your

materially import

so my default use what's available with

easy you can also just do the SDF or the

principal shader I believe some of these

options needs to be actually at the

import menu you select the ear file

maize move it to here

a lot of these look familiar far which

over to the importer and 1.3

this looks like if you're using blender

rendering but when that that's not

available here and the two point a so

that's kind of ope

utilities I've got to look into that I

guess that's more and metadata part of

the deaf files

you this is a newer option here if you

have an add-on you want to add to the

importer add-on yourself you have new

functionality you want to add you can

write that and you can use this to help

you set that up

posing this is where you take the pose

files that are available and - studio

and import them into your kit on your

character to Reaper your character so

those are for all the skill now animated

but still poses

and like I say RTO the tooltip over it

you see you want stuff our dear

BSF files

you do pose library again bringing the

whole library poses and import action

you basically can import a sequence of

[Music]

poses so ask Maya maybe they are sitting

down and then expose stand up and expose

tips step 4

that's not frame-by-frame those are just

still one pose at a time so if you

wanted to do that you can do that

there's supposed to be a way where you

could actually import any animated pose

one to add some motion in it and using

the import action buttons but I haven't

figured out how to get that working

smoothly so if I do I'll make another

video following up on this one

and you can guess save the current frame

where we pose this in

and that's about it these we've already

gone through with base units changing in

the expressions advising use so those

are the basics of the Gaz importer let's

go ahead and take another look at the

materials I'll make sure that they came

out correctly as far especially with

things using the alpha transparency so

one moment

yeah I just didn't notice last time when

I'm not the eyes use alpha transparency

like a u2 and the eyelashes in the hair

and they all do you again not really

happy about the hair color but it's

probably something I chose in the studio

also this had a lot of alpha

transparency in it this glove material

so all that came out pretty well

so we can actually take this armature

and go to the pose mode

and

our troops are why

who's that you can pair two of course

there are some

mass rating issues that might be more

with my actual character than the

importer as a whole so again don't put

too much weight into that

and that should Bob Duke be about it

maybe half of today I might do a

follow-up on using like rigify or

something like that

arguing their character but this is the

Daz importer one point four thanks for
