I tried to run them on a different computer. Same error.

Uninstalling Daz completely to refresh things is a real PITA. Maybe they've finally fixed it, but Daz Studio leaves behind all kinds of stuff when you uninstall it. I've even reinstalled my whole system in the past just to make sure I've got a "Clean" install. So I am loathe to go this route. I would love to just say "I reinstalled the program and now everything works again!" but it isn't that simple. Hunting down the registry keys and hidden ini files... There's a reason I'm needing a couple different workaround right now that ought to be solved completely by a reinstall.

I was hoping upgrading to 4.12 would solve the issue magically. But it hasn't and now I'm here.

I've tried uninstalling the file, restarting the computer, then reinstalling the file. I've tried installing through both DIM and Daz Connect. These damn things WERE working before.

I'm starting work on a digital comic and I really need to get all my assets working. There's so many great clothing items that don't exist as Genesis 8 assets. Sure, auto-follow can handle a lot of things. But NOT everything. The converters solve many problems. I wish they would just roll them into the main DAZ software already.

The following is the error given in the log file. Again, these USED to work and I've not moved anything since then.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Thanks in advance. Hugs 

is not the same as the right.  So am wondering what needs to be adjusted, I can't just make the outter layer larger

I am wondering is it in the bump map that it is wrong or what file can I adjust in photoshop to make the brown

go away at the waste. See pictures it should make more sense.  Thank you for any help any one.  The second

picture is how it should look but on the first for some reason the brown from the layer beneath is poking through.

Hugs 

i just order this one but where [on earth] is the licence key that i need when i install the program?

I'm playing with Predatron Goblin Cleric: https://www.daz3d.com/goblin-cleric

Some content are in "smart Content" tab and other content are in "Content Library" tab.

I have found almost everything I need except:

- the different materials for robes, color and/or dirty, see the 1st attached image.

- the ears cross the hood, see the 2nd attached image

Where can I change or resolve this issues ?

Thanks a lot, Xavi

I've been away from Daz for a while. I just got a new machine so I'm installing all over again. It won't show my smart content and gives the following error:

I turned off the firewall. I uninstalled and reinstalled. 

I'm running Windows 10.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I think this is a silly question, but I've been chasing around on it for a bit. It used to be that pose packs had a zero pose option to get rid of all the non working attempts, or you could right click and zero out a pose..  or even ctrl+shift+zero, but none of that seems to work anymore. How do I zero out a pose? 

Thanks again for all your help! I'll be out of restart silly sometime soon :)

Also, I'm having a freezing problem *again* that started in Studio 4.10; when I go to delete a character, instead of deleting in a minute or so it just doesn't delete at all, my cursor is "thinking" and DAZ ends up freezing. THAT I waited out at 30 minutes. It is ridiculoussss. I can't figure it out and I can't work on anything. This freezing has been happening for a very long time now, when going to delete a Gen8 character.

Here are my comp specs:

Edit to Add: Also now my renders are all BLACK!

They only appear on one item in the render, the Combat Rifle from the new Zeddicus Pose set released today.

Now I am using IRAY and an HDRI sky for the only light source. Still using Studio 4.11 since I didn't upgrade yet.

I've reduced the Glossy Reflectivity of the Combat Rifle from the default 0.50 to 0.05 (one-tenth the original). This does not seem to make any difference.

I've tried rotating my character and adjusting the camera angle, and this seems to have SOME effect, but some speckles remain. However I'd like to have the lower camera angle looking at the character holding the rifle for "dramatic effect" if possible.

I've tried adjusting the Nominal Luminosity under the Firefly Filter from 0 to 1500 and then 3000, and it doesn't look like it is having any effect.

Am I misunderstanding what these "speckles" are? Is it "noise" and not "firelies?"

And if it is noise, is there anything I can do without degrading the rest of the render? 99% of the speckles appear on the Rifle, and there are just a FEW on the character's shirt in the shadowed area under the rifle (shadow cast by the rifle itself against the character's shirt).

Thank you for any ideas.

Manual downlod of a file took almost 5 minutes for 34 MB - and Im sitting on a 100 Mbit connection...?

Thanks in advance for your help!!!

I took some haircuts but the rendering is a cube. How to correct this problem? :/

I do not have a vocabulary to correctly define my problem so I leave you with this screen.

The installation can't find dreamlight.dse, the layout is all white and almost unreadable, there are no other styles available, it can't find resources/dthdr-ruinsb-500.hdr, and the renders come out all washed out white

How do I restore Daz to something that works

I have run into an odd issue and think I know perhaps why it is happening, but I don't know how to fix it.

Sometime in the past I had a G3F char after purchase that was only available on the DAZ Connect option. I had never used it, but setup the connection and got that folder in my library. Since then I now seem to have several of my G3F character purchases downloaded to both my normal library and also to the DAZ Connect library. I didn't care so much until today when I wanted to change a texture on one of the characters that have both library locations.

Starting in the Surfaces tab I selected the texture and found it in the DAZ connect folder. Once opened to that folder I made a copy of the texture for a backup and intended to modify the original - which didn't work. After doing a forum search this seems like the normal state so that updates on the connect file don't overwrite your changes. That makes sense so I go to the normal library location and make a backup copy of the texture and edit the original there. In the Surfaces tab I change the location of the texture to be my normal library, see my change loads into the workspace, render, save, and exit DAZ.

An hour later I open DAZ back up and blink because I know I saved my scene but the modified texture is not there. I check the Surfaces tab and find that even though I explicitly saved my texture to be the one in the non-Connect folder it has defaulted back to the Daz Connect folder location.

Is this due to me having two locations for the same character? Can I not save the same named file in a differnt folder and use it if I have a connect-based texture? And if this requires me to get back to only one library version of the character how do I remove the Connect version?

thanks in advance for any help and guidance.

the script calls for:
/data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Female/Tools/Projection Templates/Dresses/UltraTemplates/SYUltraLoinclothDress/UV Sets/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Female/Tools/Projection Templates/Dresses/Base/default.dsf

the actual file is in:
data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 3\Female\Tools\Projection Templates\Dresses\UltraTemplates\SYUltraLoinclothDress\UV Sets\SickleYield\Base\default.dsf

I fixed mine by making the directory structure the script was calling for and copying the file it was looking for into it instead of editing the script.

Just loaded the Dragon 3 in Studio 4.12 and his eyes are white in iray preview and iray render.  Haven't changed the materials and diddled with as many settings as I could think of but still only solid white eyes.

Any help would be appreciated.

i keep getting install failed when trying to install upgrades or products. nothing installs any more.

What shall I do ? Any ideas are appreciated.
