Please take a moment to go check mcjTeleBlenderFBX
This version is for Blender 2.80
it is incomplete and VERY BETA
But in case you just couldn't wait any longer ... that's something to appease the pain :)
For unknown reasons Blender wont start remotely under the orders of mcjTeleBlender4
so, press the "Export/open current frame" button
watch the scene export go by
navigate to the folder where you said the .obj file gets exported to
for example c:\myscenesforblender\myscene.obj
you will find a file named myscene.bat
double-left-click on that batch file
this will start blender, which will load the myscene.obj which will then run the script myscene.py
which will import lights and cameras and adjust some material settings that the obj/mtl file lack
strong suggestion:
click TeleBlender's "Restore Defaults" button
then make sure the path to blender.exe is correct
then make sure the .obj/.mtl export folder is correct
this will give you the same settings i used for my tests
my tests were all performed with the following settings
once you're in Blender you can change the renderer to cycles CPU or EEVEE and all seems okay

The Latest mcjTeleBlender 4 Beta for Blender 2.8 MCJTELEBLENDER4BETA160008132019.DSA
new : reduced Bump strength looks less scary in Eevee
BUT NOTE : The Water shader used on the eyes of genesis 8 look ok in Cycles but No-Good in Eevee, so you should replace them with uber Base and make use opacity/cutout
Wednesday August 14th 2019 11:41PM Release
The Script now detects the glass-type of materials applied to eye surfaces and swaps them for 0% opacity mats
the Dont-collect-maps option now works
The removal of the leading front slash is not optional, and happens when the collect maps option is on
meaning, Daz Studio writes in .mtl files something like
map_Kd /Maps/ARTDZGums.jpg
and blender would hate that
so the mcjTeleBlender Script changes it to map_Kd Maps/ARTDZGums.jpg

mcjMakeCyclesNodes.py which is part of the mcjBlendBot package contained a line of disused code
that caused failure for Blender 2.83. This line was removed ( commented out )
so download MCJBLENDBOTFORBLENDER28306242020.ZIP
and unzip it in your blender2.83 scripts/addons folder
in case you want to fix your august 2019 version
open mcjMakeCyclesNodes.py in a text editor like notepad
and delete the line that reads
bpy.types.NodeSocket.label = bpy.props.StringProperty( name = "label" )

MCJTELEBLENDER4BETA06252020.dsa is the new version of the Daz Script, i only added detection of image maps on the emission channels of uber shaders, this is why the TV screens and illuminated buttons look ok in the render below
MCJBLENDBOTFORTB4BLENDER283.zip is the new BlendBot kit of Blender python scripts, it fixes issues that cropped up with Blender 2.83, if i did this correctly it should still work with 2.80.
