Daz vs Character Creator for Unity URP

Hi,

I'm trying to get the best characters I can imported into Unity - this is what I've learnt -

I'd love to know if I can import CC skin material and Eyes into a Daz character, then I could have the best of both worlds.


Daz pro's
1. Daz has body morphs 2. Material export ok'ish. 3. Gen 8 good skeleton
Daz neg
1. Daz 9 and 8.1 bad skels. Materials not as good as Character Creator 2. Eye need more work

Character Creator 4 pro's
1. Great skels, 2. Great materials, Skin looks nicer in light 3. Soft cloth dynamics 4. Great eyes
Neg
1. NO BODY MORPHS!

Can't combine them together (yet) If know how let me know in the comments! .

 

i'd go with the one that gets you closest to what you want and if you need additional shapes get zbrush core or blender and do final touch ups or morph creation there.

 

I haven't made blendshapes/morphs in blender before - Is it hard and how long does it take to create one? I haven't used blender much before.

 

They're called Shape Keys in Blender, to help you look for tutorials on them. And while I haven't used them much it's pretty straight forward. There'll be a million tutorials out there on how on how to do them. I can also see tons of tutorials on exporting them to Unity.

 

Righto, I'll check it out -I imagine the process would be export to Unity, open the exported fbx in Blender, add back the morphs/shapekey/blendshapes, re-export back to unity, run the cc importer tools.

 

it may take a few days to figure out your pipeline on a technical level.

the difficult part is making believable humans. it is really easy to mess them up, you'll have to spend time studying character art.
