Another quick question on updating. Do I need to download and update the Genesis Starter Essentials as well each time the plug in updates?

No, just the plugin was updated.

My first full character & costume test with Genesis in poser,

it worked out in the end , but I have to say the genesis clothes were missing a few basics which caused some problems & the applying of morphs was far from perfect.

Still I’m intrested enough to keep an eye on Genesis even if I dont throw huge sums of money at it.

Oh yes I used my own Orc texture on the figure

Thank you TheWheelMan

When I start up Poser, I get this error:

An errror occurred importing addon dson :
ERROR: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

Then, if I try to load Genesis, I get this one:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File “C:\Users\user\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library\Runtime\libraries\Character\DAZ People\Genesis.py”, line 1, in <module>
  import dson.dzdsonimporter
  File “C:\Program Files (x86)\Smith Micro\Poser 9\Runtime\Python\addons\dson\__init__.py”, line 3, in <module>
  import dson.dzdsonimporter
ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

Is there a solution to this problem?  In skimming over the past DSON threads I didn’t catch one.  I am using the most recent DSON installer and Poser Service Update.  And since some little snot is going to point it out, I also used the 64 bit DSON installer.

Poser 9? If so it’s a 32 bit application and you need to use the 32 bit DSON installer even if you are running Poser 9 on a 64 bit machine.

That did it.  Should teach me to preemptively call anyone a “little snot”.

I’ve noticed there’s a lot of Daz Originals that seem to be rather slow in getting converted. LIke the Royal Elf for Genesis, and it’s textures. I could do it myself if I could figure out how to save things in the new duf format but the one time I tried it said something about needing the morphs or something.

Question regarding DSON and the UV Sets.

Is there an easy (or not easy?) way to SWITCH the UV sets using DSON ?

If you mean switching UV’s so you can use Gen 4 textures and other Gen 5 ones, there is an easy way, you just get this:

CHEERS!

Mec4D has a nice free little uv switcher on her site.

LOL, great minds think alike!

CHEERS!

Cheers! Great minds and a great product. I hope she’ll update it for H5 and Stephenie 5 once they get Steph DSON compatable for her uv mapping and all.

Yeah, they really should get round to that. Why have characters and poses when you can’t use the base figure!?

CHEERS!
