Converted outfit not autofollowing

[Pendraia]

After spending over an hour on converting the antz pants so Zan can use them. I've struck a problem...that they're not autofollowing. It's driving me batty as I can't work out why. It was a manual convert to fix them with Dawn, and then Diva using Zbrush. Fits perfectly but it's not following despite using autofit and trying the transfer utility as well. It wants me to manually create the morphs. At least that's what happened with the diva one. Wouldn't autofollow until I loaded a custom morph...what am I missing! I don't currently have a smoothing modifier applied for collision but I would have thought the autofollow would do better than this.

Is this going to be a freebie? If so contact me and let me fiddle with it. I have been able to convert quite a feww of the Poser only outfits for use in Daz Studio.

Hi, thanks for the offer but I'd like to try and fix it myself. I have got it sort of working using a smoothing modifier for collision but I expected it to autofollow better than it did. The outfit I converted is legacy rigged and it has separate parts for the different groups which I think is what might have caused the issue.

I'm hoping that I will be able to release free morphs for these outfits but Lorraine and I are still working out the process for people to use. We did manage to get the morphs working on a k4 dress last night but it is slightly more complicated as the original files are legacy rigged and they need to be converted to triax to work with Dawn on Diva.

Regardless of the transfer utility you may have to still do a adjust rigging to shape, esp for such a drastic sizing difference hon!

It's not the rigging that was worrying me Ram but the mesh following the size. This was happening with an unposed figure. Even the bulk or other morphs weren't working properly. Generally clothing will use the rigging from the original Diva morph in Dawn automatically. I've never had to adjust rigging for clothing for her previously as it takes it from the original morph. Creating a custom morph fixed it for the Diva fit and using a smoothing modifier helped with other things...not sure why it was doing it though. I also noticed that with the autofit it's created separate morphs for each part of Dawn. So I think it's connected to the way the original clothing was set up as it's legacy rigging and would have been grouped.
