Help needed: Replace Obj with FBX trees in Alessandro's Ultimo Paradiso?

cly3d_a2d886eb2c

Hi all.

 I've been playing around with the Alessandro's excellent Ultimo Paradiso (http://www.daz3d.com/ultimo-paradiso)

However, the trees though realistic and well placed (must have taken him a lot of time!) do not move. I have managed to get a coconut tree model which has baked wind animation.  It works nicely in Daz, so I'm looking at replacing the coconut_plant OBJ that Alessandro's python script populates the island with.

Problem is, I do not know python or the syntax to import an FBX instead of the Obj. I opened the python file for the coconut tree and I believe this variable needs to be replaced: objFileGeom but I don't know what the syntax is for FBX, or indeed, if FBX can be imported this way.

I tried renaming the fbx tree as obj but that didnt work.

Anyone know of a solution? I'd hate to have to plant 60 coconut trees manually when the Python script does an excellent job of even bending the trees randomly!

 

Kind Regards

Alessandro Mastronardi

Hello, since you mentioned python I assume you are trying to replace the .OBJ in Poser, right?
