Once the model is imported into Lens Studio, make sure to enable Autoplay on the Animation Mixer component to see your animation playback.Aside from the setup, rendering an animation frame should be treated differently to a still image. For information on importing 3D models into Lens Studio, please review the 3D Object Import guide. You now have an exported FBX file that’s ready to be imported into Lens Studio. To learn more about optimizing please review Performance And Optimization guide.įinally in the FBX Export Settings window, click the Accept button. You will need to reduce the resolution of the texture to 2048x2048 or less. Keep in mind that some textures coming from Daz3D have a resolution bigger than 2048x2048. Then in the Output Options, set the FBX version to FBX 2014 - Binary and also make sure Embed Textures, Merge Diffuse and Opacity Textures, Merge Clothing Into Figure Skeleton, Allow Degraded Skinning, Allow Degraded Scaling and Collapse UV Tiles are already checked.

To bake the animation select the animation and right-click the empty space of the timeline. Now we can go ahead and bake the animation. This will select all the joints of our object. Then select the root object for the model and right-click on it.

To bake the animation, first select the Scene panel. For the purpose of this guide, we’re using Daz Studio 4.10.īefore exporting to FBX format we have to make sure that the animation is baked into the model so we can successfully import the animation with the model into Lens Studio.

This guide will walk through how to export a 3D model with animation to the FBX format so it can be imported into Lens Studio.
