How to Convert From DAZ to iClone
DAZ Studio and iClone are both 3D applications used to create animation based on poseable figures. DAZ Studio is a free application, whereas iClone is a bit pricey. The iClone application may have some interesting features, but the amount of content available for it pales in comparison to the number of models and figures available for DAZ Studio. Although you would often be better off producing your work entirely inside DAZ Studio, if you have to use iClone, you can import content and scenes from DAZ through the iClone 3DXchange utility.
