Dragon Braid Bundle Issues

Just a heads up the Dragon Braid files for the hair colors poses and accessories are .mt5 files.  Which apparently the current Daz 4.9 does not like.  I've fixed the problem by going to the files manually and changing them to .mc6 files and they work just fine.  But I dont' know how many people know how to do that.  and.. Its really time consuming as there are a LOT of options with this stuff (good thing, not complaining lol)

    Fortunately it was only the file in the Figures section and not the pose or mat files.  Or I would still be at it lol.  I've run across it before in older products.  It would be nice to have it fixed,  I think sometimes some just slip through the cracks.  Like I said, not hard to fix on my end but for people who are newer and don't know, it just won't work unless they know.

    The problem is that these are not .mc6 files.  They are .mt5 files. They actually work just fine as .mc6 files although converting them will make things simpler for sure.

    Did you read all the way through the referenced thread? The current version also converts mt5 files as well as the mc6 files.

    EDIT 2: I notice that the Dragonbraid and related stuff was showing as purchased for me, so I went into DIM and had it download for me. The Pose files ARE all there, at least when done as a DIM download. If you don't have them, something must have gone wrong with the download. What happens if you try a manual download, or try a DIM download if you went through Connect?

    Previous post below:

     

    Something got packaged incorrectly, I think. I bought the Dragonbraid stuff back when it was with RDNA, and it had PZ2 files, which work just fine in every version of Studio 4 to date.

    No readme for the current Daz store version exists, so I've attached a zip file with the readme for the version I bought at RDNA, which contains a list of the files. You should definitely put in a ticket for this, because if you don't have PZ2 files, it's not all there. (EDIT: Zip file updated to include readme for the Addon, which seems to be included in the Daz bundle as well.)

    According to the readme with the file, the Pose directory  with the Dragonbraid Bundle should contain the following:

    By the way the ReadMe file is provided in the DIM .zip files - it is under:
    ReadMe's - TheDragonBraidBundle if you download the bundle .zip, or
    Runtime - AK Readmes - DragonBriad if you download the "Dragonbraid for V4" .zip
    (I've no idea why there are two .zip versions in DIM)

    No, I haven't read it since I looked at the first time I had a problem.  That's good to know thanks!
