THERE'S A NEW VERSION THAT SUPPORTS ASCII AND BINARY
================================================================================
Introduction
================================================================================ THERE'S A NEW VERSION THAT SUPPORTS ASCII AND BINARY
This script will only import STL file in plain text format, aka ASCII format And only if the file is formatted as a simple series of triangles It's true that one could simply convert it to .obj by other means and import it but lots of things are true for instance it's true that this script generates a spherical UV map for the object ================================================================================
History
================================================================================
November 14th 2017 - Release
================================================================================
Installation
================================================================================
The zip package is found at the bottom of this page
unzip it in your daz content folder,
typically :
C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library
once installed, it will appear in your content library, under
The Daz Script will be found in My Library / Scripts / mcasual
Starting with Windows 7 if you right click on the downloaded zip file
and select the [Extract All ....] pop-up menu item
you simply browse up to your Daz Studio Content Folder
and the files will fall in the proper folder
================================================================================
Use
================================================================================
Click the DoIt button
select the STL-Ascii file ( .stl )
the script will produce an .obj file in the same folder as the STL
so you must make sure the .stl file is not in a wrote-protected folder
If the file is a binary format STL or is not a simple STL format, the import will fail but it should not crash your Daz Studio
The script generates a spherical UV map and looks OK if the object is centered at 0,0,0
