WTF? BOTMOTO NOT WORKING?

Just bought BotMoto, downloaded it through Connect, and now, when I try to load it, all I get is grey blocks.  WTF?  This on top of the fact that for some strange reason, Botmoto went from being 30% off, to full price, to 30% off again.

    (I'm presuming that all other items load normally.)

    Have you checked out if all the file are there? http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/33285/file_list

    Also, try checking out in the content library rather than Smart content:

    "You can find new icons for loading this product in the following DAZ Studio Folders:

    • “Vehicles:Parris:BotMoto”"

    It's possible that there are two files that load the vehicle, and one is connected wrongly, and only one shows up in Smart content.

    All of the files are present, and there's only one file to load the bike.  Looking at the log file, there seems to be a problem with the geometry file.  I've started a help ticket, hopefully it'll get fixed soon.

    Un-F-ing-Believable.  I am literally stunned.  I fixed the problem, now everything is working, but I'm still just stunned.  The issue, the reason the bike wouldn't load properly, was because of one tiny mistake in the data files.  Not just the main geometry file, no this was in all of the files in the /data directory - the geometry file, the uv file, even the morph files.  It boggles my mind that an error this small, this insignificant, could break a product so completely.

    And what was that error?  What was the teeny tiny mistake that triggered hours of effort, trying to fix a clearly broken product?

    This entry: ' "author" : "Parris", ' under the contributor section was missing the comma at the end of the line!!  I'm not kidding, that was the only thing wrong with the files.

    So now, after inserting an appropriate comma in to all of the data files, BotMoto is working perfectly.

    Mind Blown.
