I have some skills in Blender, but the transfer, dimensions, and properties (material, color) of the created objects when transferred to DAZ are quite difficult. I guess. it takes a lot of experience and skill to create say some D-force clothes for example. I found it interesting that for both 2 tasks, they mention that they can be created with DAZ.
Have you tried to create UVs and assign dedicated textures instead of relying on shaders?

For clothing or props that require bones to fit on figures, you need to use transfer utility to rig items. Then you might need to edit the weight map and create JCMs (Joint correction Morphs) to smooth out the surface; otherwise, your clothing or props will look strange when posed.

WP Guru just created a series of videos on how to create simple clothing for Daz. Here's part 1 -

While WP Guru uses Marvelous Designer to create clothing, you can also do it inside Blender. This guy does it in ZBrush, but the same principle applies to Blender -

Other useful YouTube channels you might want to look into - ,
SickleYield also has a series of tutorials sold on Daz dedicated to content creation in Blender -

Thanks for the information and links. (y) This WP Guru dude has some pretty good tutorials. And I'm definitely going to look into that UV mapping and texture stuff.

Quick update. First simple scene with an object (this funny chair leg) made in Blender then transferred to Daz with UV Unwrap technique applied.

After a couple requests, I done some work on "Madame Rose"... a character I honestly never seen in the game as I took a different route. I needed to search the game for images. Anyhow, this is the result. Not perfect, but good enough for fan art.

Madame Rose (G8F) Assets
Character: Alla HD for Genesis 8 Female
Hair:
Genitals:

Clothes
Mask: Basic Corset Lingerie Set for Genesis 8 Females(s)
Outfit: Night Of Temptation Suit (G8F)
Panties:
Ear Piercings:

My Scene Subset requiring the above assets: View attachment Madame Rose (G8F) Scene Subset.7z

Madame Rose (G8F) - Centerfold.png

And for most of my work I always use Genesis 8 Male & Female Body Morphs (Unofficial Bundle) and HD Body Shapes & HD Head Morphs for Genesis 8 Female .

CORRECTION!!! I deleted a line from the required characters! I had been testing out another character but it didn't work out and I forgot to edit my text file. Only ONE character is needed. I think the dev MAY have used a second character for head shape, I am uncertain, but this ended up being closer than with the second one.

Only Alla HD is needed.

You had requested her, and I was like... "who in the hell is Madame Rose?!" I guess you see her if you don't go the retirement home route (retirement home was the best, SO FUNNY). So I had to look through the game's images to see who in the hell she was! LOL, now I may have to replay the game just to see her route, looks interesting. She was a tough one to find. Thanks to drakeikari for helping to find her. He also requested her, so we both helped each other a little (that guy has some search skills! LOL). I searched like, 7000 characters for her, and when I came back here a few days later he was like "found her" and I was, "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!" LMAO... fun times.

Her panties aren't exact. They were hard to find and I THINK I may know where the originals came from, but I didn't see them available anywhere so I went with the next best thing. It's not like they will stay on long anyhow. :p Not sure about her ear piercings either, but I found something that looked the same and there wasn't many other choices.

I came across it on my first run and was like: Is this all I get for a VIP pass? This is some kind of joke, right? Tell me this is a joke! Fuck my eyes.:HideThePain: Then when I got here, then saw that I was not the only one. I'm doing some non-BaDIK stuff right now, but get back to it later. In any case, Madame will get into various accidents and disasters here. :ROFLMAO:
