need help cementing a created bow tie to character.

michaelolson

Hi. I took a bow tie made for the Genesis 2 character, brought it into Hex to make some modifications, then sent it back to Daz. I followed the instructions on a you tube video where I make the tie a Sub d, then using the transfer utility under assets chose the character as the source and the tie as the target, and what ends up happening is the tie gets shrunk really small and is placed at the center of the character instead of staying on the neck. Which makes sense if it is transferring the assets of the whole body to the tie I guess, but why does this process work so well with just a shirt? So next I tried using the original bow tie as the source but the same thing happens. Anyone know how I can get the tie to stay and move and morph with the neck of the body?
Thanks.

Ok...you import the item...what is the Import scale? It sounds like it is a some scale other than 100%/Daz native scale.

What I usually do, as a final step, before fitting the item is to export it at Daz native scale, then reimport it at Daz native scale (set it on the import/export dialog).
