Sculpties to Hexagon 2.5 to Photoshop CS6

[Lumiya Theas]

I just recently upgraded to PhotoShop CS6 and have been itching to try out the 3d painting tool. I imported my SL Sculpt tga into Hexagon 2.5 and exported it as a .obj. When I tried to import it into PS CS6 I get this error:  "The PhotoShop 3D file formate could not parse this file" 

I have spent over an hour of searching trying to find a solution and have com up empty. I also tried exporting as a .3ds file as well, but still get the same error.

Can anyone assist with this?

 

Thank you!

The only time I get that error in CS6 is when I try to import a rigged mesh .dae format. I have no problems importing a non rigged .dae format.... I have not run into this with an OBJ,

I do not use Hex, Is there a type of conversion for Hexagon to convert a non mesh object to mesh?

This is not for a mesh object, just a normal Sculpt.

[Dilbert Dilweg]

.obj = mesh object

Once you save it out as an obj you have told it to become a mesh object.

A sculpt is just a height map image of an object = mesh

I know in blender. Depending on how the mesh was made (Like with curvs) . I have to convert curves to mesh or I will have nothing but problems...

 

It could be also missing the uv map or material information.  But somewhere it is missing the proper information for cs6 to properly import it

You might try saving it out as a .dae . CS6 will import a DAE

Do you have Photoshop CS6 Extended? I can't open OBJ files in the regular version of CS6, but my old copy of CS3 Extended opens them just fine.
