Rigging is done

Ok Rigging is done and the texture map is not morphing with the rigging. How do I get it to move with it?

    What are you wanting? UVs don't change in response to rigging.

    I don't know if the obj file is loaded right or if I saved it wrong? I applied the texture to the model and the model is not moving but the bones are? I have no idea what i did wrong

    Did you make sure that in the figure setup tools your bones are matched to the correct face groups? And then did you do any weight mapping?

    Yep I figured it out, now the next problem is getting the weight mapping right. Any suggestions?

    It depends on what sort of figure you are rigging, if you have a rigid, mechanical model, or if it is a human, animal, clothing, or something organic that has to bend more smoothly.

    Have you looked at the documentation center? There is a section on weight mapping here:
    http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/userguide/creating_content/rigging/tutorials/weight_mapping_a_figure/start

    I know a little bit, but am by no means an expert. You may be able to google other tutorials, though, and if you run into specific problems, maybe somebody with more expertise can answer those for you here.
