try it - not had any luck with my models - maybe you will .
guess it will depend on how you made them .

very easy with transfer utility but only for your own use not redistributable except if clothing for an existing Daz figure requiring that figure.
see the many posts on the subject in the forum (hint search transfer utility)

not for me - happy it works for you .
ran the model through Hex - Bryce - 3dexchange - and more .
DS crash with them all .

@Wendy i noticed in ds 4 there is the transfer utility but seems to work of some tri something tech?
I also notice and did get a a donor skeleton but when i tried to combine the colladae export in carrara it said something
about import as prop only.
So i may try it again as fbx and see if i can attach skeleton to my model.

save as a scene in .duf format and import into C8.5

.duf and Carrara 8.5 works, other ways iffy at best
i cannot get an FBX from DS into C8.1 anyway always a mess

in any version of carrara you can always attach a skeleton of a daz figure under animation by selecting hip and your object and hiding the Daz figure

Thanks Wendy, i dont plan on any upgrades since im a hobbyist.
My hex bryce and carrara are all that i;ll ever get.
I do have bryce 7 pro and ds pro 4 something and just found my carrara 7 or dsa 3 cant import the ds4 saved file.
Eh whatever.
