Yuletide Dreams - missing files

When loading Yuletide Dreams I get a Missing Files error - the files are actually where they're supposed to be, though the first one seems to have a wrong reference (to dazcontentqa/product instead of jack tomalin/holidaynook) in the .duf. Have tried to redownload/reinstall, doesn't help. Anyone else seeing this?

ETA: the .daz version has missing files too.

    Have you got the room it is a texture for?

    the duf version, just clarifying as Dreamhouse is like this too the Poser versions overwrite some of the duf ones

    Well I know the Poser one loads and I usually apply the DAZ studio materials to that as often have to on many things

    Same problem with me. The texture files have the same errors when applying to the base, but they do eventually get it done. According to the doku readme, the base (Holiday Nook) was updated after Yuletide Dreams, so something's broken.

    I've updated my previous post to show all that is installed. The files I'm loading are complete scene files, so I'd expect them to load everything needed.

    Sadly I cannot test it right now, I do know many of those older sets were Poser files with DAZ materials you loaded but yes do recall it had a ready scene and there are others that also don’t work

    Have you checked for updates for the Holiday Nook DS? I've a feeling it did have a relatively recent update to chnage from .daz to .duf, which should include the .dsf files.

    Yes, the problem seems to be with the Yuletide Scene preloads and .duf materials. The Holiday Nook scene presets seems to work fine, and applying the Yuletide materials seperately to these seems to work, though the .duf versions complain about missing files. The .ds versions load without any errors.

    I don't see any updates for neither Holiday Nook nor Yuletide in DIM (all DS versions selected under Downloads). The Holiday Nook preload I have is a .duf from october 2017. The Holiday Nook files seem to work fine though, it's the Yuletide files only that have problems.

    OK, thanks, that may explain it.

    In the scene file for Yuletide Dreams, the path to the resource files is "/data/Jack%20Tomalin/Holidaynook/..." which is missing a space. The path should be "/data/Jack%20Tomalin/Holiday%20Nook/..." for all occurrences. There are also a couple of "/data/dazcontentqa/Product/..." that should also be changed to "/data/Jack%20Tomalin/Holiday%20Nook/..." I edited the file and it loads with no errors, no warnings.

    Yes, now it works. Thanks!

    Reported to DAZ.

    The URL references in all of the material presets need the same treatment, if we want to clean up all the warnings.

    OK, thanks, have added that to the bug report...

    Well got a response from CS, they say they can't/won't fix the bug since the product is disabled, but it can be returned in exchange for store credit.
