I need to replace the Michael 4 Base boxer briefs with a Speedo style swimsuit.  Can the briefs be removed / deleted in some way?

You need a “No briefs” material file to do that. Luckily, ShareCG.com has one here: http://www.sharecg.com/v/42670/gallery/11/Poser/M4-No-Briefs

There should be an All NatrualNG material file which will repalce the briefs with skin, though there won’t be any detail for the genitals or pubic hair.

That file is a known missing file on M4. It didn’t come with the NG mat file. Hence the need for freebies like the one I linked to.

How should I load / place the files (.png, .mcz, etc.)?  THANKS!

There’s a runtime folder in the Zip file which contains a Libraries folder containing a Pose folder, containing a MATerials SIMPL_Res Folder. Drag and Drop the contents of this folder into your Documents>DAZ Studio>My Library>Runtime> Libraries>Pose >DAZ’s Michael 4>MATerials SIMPL_Res folder

So it is. However, the basic body map is the no-briefs version, the briefs are on a separate map, so a simple swap to set the Skin Hip to the same settings as the reset of the trunk should do the job.
