anyone know where the poser chatacter files are?

Sorry wrong info so I deleted it

They should be in Figures:  Vimana

I want to get this when I am out of debt. It looks so damn cool and I love mythical stuff like this modernized. I have the original Vimana from days past. :D

yes thats what I was thinking too.
but its not
what should be and what is dont apply to Daz these days.
i have looked at the files and it looks like the wrong files are in the poser download (AGAIN)

The pose files for genesis are there, the character file for the figure is missing
I installed all three, butthere is nothing there for poser

I’m having exactly the same problem on my PC. I’ve even tried downloading the Mac version in the hope the Mac version would have the files and that doesn’t either.

This wouldn’t help. I have the same issues on my Mac. I installed Vimana two times today, but it seems that the files are corrupt. Or it is the same thing as with the ‘Walkers for Genesis’: In the shop they write that this item is ‘for DS 4.5 and DS 4’ while it is a DS 4.5 product… I would like DAZ to explain or fix it soon. Happy New Year.

Or has DAZ’s QA team again decided to remove the PCF files because it did not meet their unknown qualtity standards without informing anyone?

I had the same problem. I tried installing the poser installer into an empty directory and found it was only installing the Daz Studio files. I looked more carefully and saw the dpc and the trx installers were exactly the same size.

I think the poser installer is just a copy of the Daz Studio installer with the wrong file name. Any idea when they finish their new year break?

DAZ should be back in office tomorrow.

File size isn’t necessarily a perfect indicator, usually a good one, but not always…if you can and have both files, try running an MD5 checksum on them.  If you don’t have a utility that will do it, most optical disk burning software has the capability…

It makes reporting this kind of bug easier when you can say, “Hey, I’ve got checksums on both the files and they match.”, especially when it’s pretty obvious that they shouldn’t be matching.

I am so happy to have wasted 30 minutes on this product to only find this thread on PAGE 2!

The downloader for Poser is all f’d up.

Why do all the newer postings disappear from this thread? At least two vanished, though they were not at all offensive or in other ways against the forum rules - just critical. And with this little trick, this thread falls back to s. 4,5,6… Not fair, and not at all confident, DAZ. BTW, there are the same issues with ‘Epic Wings’ as with ‘Vimana’. Maybe DAZ should throw away all those useless installers.

The only posts that were removed were posts that were made purely for the prupose of bumping the thred back onto the front page of the forum without saying anything.

Bump posts are routinely removed, always have been.

If this thread was an ad I would say ok, but from those frequent repostings one can see that people really have a problem they want to bring forward. At least DAZ should say anything, the more as other products (like the ‘Wings’ I bought today) seem to have the same issues. I think something is wrong with the installers. I wrote to DAZ today and am waiting for an answer.
