Digimi Game Developer Kit launched
DAZ 3D-Gizmoz has announced the availability of the Digimi Game Developer Kit, which allows users of DAZ Studio to create and customize high-quality 3D characters and directly export them into their favoured game engine.
DAZ 3D-Gizmoz has also instated a new content catalogue, dedicated specifically to game developers, which further enhances game development possibilities by providing fully licensed content and models for distribution within any project or pipeline.

With tools that allow artists to easily customize levels of detail, reduce model mesh and texture sizes, and improve overall pipeline performance, the Digimi Game Developer Kit includes tools for DAZ Studio such as Decimator, the polygon reduction tool, Texture Atlas, for combining, sizing, scaling or converting textures into a single texture map, and the FBX Plug-in for DAZ Studio.
