EDIT:Had the rotating thing at the wrong place, now it's fixed.
Violet Tonks, sounds like you are having the same problem I had yesterday. lol I use Poser 7, but it shouldn't make much of a difference I think. I only had a problem importing the obj file extracted from Simpe so I had to go the long way around lol. It took me forever to figure out what I was doing wrong. This is how I was able to make it work:
1-Open my 5gd file, from the original Maxis mesh, in Milkshape
2-Then exported it as an .obj named "body.obj"
3-Open Poser, delete existing figure, then import body.obj
through "wavefront obj" *uncheck everything*
4-Apply magnets
5-Export through "wavefront obj"
"Single frame" -ok, *uncheck the ground*-ok, check only the 3
following: "include body part names...", "use exact internal
names...", "include figure names..." -ok. Save it (any name here).
6-Open Meshtool; in "load 3D file" open the obj you just saved from Poser; in "load sims 2 mesh" open the original Maxis mesh's 5gd; in "setting" *unckeck* "import UV" and "import normals"
7-Save it (any name)
8_Open Milkshape, import simpe file you just did in Meshtool. You should now have the original clothing with the desired body shape showing laying on her back.
9-Under "model" select "Rotate".
10-Select "origin" in the "rotate option".
11-Input X=0 Y=180 Z=0, hit the "rotate" button.
12-Input X=90 Y=0 Z=0, hit the "rotate" button.
It should now be standing up.
9-All you need to do now is replace the GMDC in Simpe with the new one and it should show up nice in Bodyshop.
I wrote this from memory so hope I didn't forget anything... and hope it helps you! I know I almost gave up yesterday before I figured this out. :lol:
