If you cannot change library categories (from Figures to Pose, Expressions, Hair, Props, Light, Camera, etc.), some of us are able to get around the problem by launching the Library outside the Poser application.
Edit / General Preferences / select the Library tab and change Launch Behavior from Embedded to External.
Then restart Poser.
DAZ is working on a fix.

I’ve gone bog-eyed reading through all these posts for the answer I’m looking for I’d be interested to know if there any Poser 9 users here that are able to use the DSON importer without the library totally freezing after the Genesis figure imports with DSON?
Windows 7 using the 32 bit version!

The work around dosn’t work on poser 9 , so unless myself & other sidegrade at a cost of about $250 to poser pro were stuck until they get a fix
They have been changed since then . You will have to reset it to see the DSON and Poser Companion files. Hope this helps a little.

I reset my V5 Pro Bundle on Sept 29. Will that have the necessary DSON Files or have they been changed since then?
Thanks.
Yep it did. Thanks. I’ll need to open up a ticket cuz they are still in my downloads from the 29th and I don’t think I can reset them again…
Thanks!
Try downloading one file first. I had that a few months back when DS4 came with an update while I still had the older one in my available downloads. So I downloaded it and surprisingly… it was the new version.
Love, Jeanne
Hey Jeanne, long time no see. I tried that but alas, didn’t show up. Gabi and Tori are still on version 1.0 so I’ll need to have the bundle reset again. I wonder if I can do that or if DAZ can do that. Never run into this situation before. LOL
I’m on a MAC . I own Poser 9 SR 3.1 . I created a folder inside my Poser Runtime and named it Genesis . In this folder , I have downloaded
GenesisStarterEssentials_1.6_trx and GenesisStarterEssentialsPoserCF_1.1_dpc . I have downloaded DSON_Importer_for_Poser_1.0.0.9_Mac32 too . Everything seems to be perfect but when I try to load Genesis or M5 , nothing appears in my work space . I waited about 5 minutes : nothing . I moved the folder to another place : Documents : same problem . What did I do wrong ? Thank you to help me, I tried to resolve the problem since yesterday ...
Ok cool, I was able to reset it a second time and now have the DSON compatible files. Of course, now I have two sets of the V5 Pro Bundle in my downloads but no worries.
Thanks!
It sounds like it thinks that your main Runtime folder is under Program Files or some other location that is protected by Windows (7, Vista).
You could try and change the “Writable Runtime Folder” under Scripts then DSON Support then Importer Preferences and see if that helps?
Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, it’s not worked. :(
I added the appropriate runtime folder to the Importer preferences but it still displayed the message on trying to load the genesis figures. I also tried editing the permissions for the folder, and also then running Poser as Administrator - so far no dice.
So do I understand correctly that if we already have the various updated for DSON items, it’s JUST the Poser Compatible and DSON files we need to download (which we also could create ourselves in the latest version of DS if we follow the directions to do so) and we do NOT need to re-download the Files that say “LEGACY”?

I would like to know this as well. That would save alot of time if we didn’t have to download the legacy files. *crosses fingers*

You do NOT need the legacy files for DS4.5.
They are only needed for DS4.

So…once I’ve loaded the content, I noticed that I have a bunch of stuff in a Poser runtime and other DS folders outside of that. Poser only looks at that Runtime.
Can I move these Genesis files around in the Poser runtime without breaking anything? In a nutshell, the folders are poorly organized/named and need to be adjusted. I do this all the time with Poser content (excluding geometries, pmds, textures, etc.) but I’m not sure if I can rename a folder of Genesis content without breaking everything.

Did you install the DSON Importer where you have your other python scripts (main program folder usually, I think?)
