Instant Rain did not work anymore (solved)

Got some problems with the instant rain setting from Dreamlight in the newest Daz version.
Could not load the prop and get a failure message.
Did that happen to anyone else?
Tried to reinstall it anew, but it did not work anyway.

I don't have it.
Acccording to promos it is made of textures planes, so can't really imagine why it shouldn't work.
What is the failure message you are getting (full text from the log)?

The error message points to a problem with a file installed via Connect (ie directly from DS). Is that how you usually install your content?
No, normaly I only install over DIM
Then that means a Connect version has been installed by mistake. You should uninstall it and then it will use your DIM version afterwards.
Wohooo, Thank you so much Laena. It works again, you really, really saved my day. Big hug and kisses. :)
