Tattoo for Genesis 3 Male(s)

Kev914

I have this product, but...where in the heck is it. I think I have installed everything that I have purchased. Every thing since 4.9 has been installed through Daz Connect. If I type tattoo into the search bar, I get nothing. If I go to the store tab and type in tattoo, about 7 products show up. But not this one. Oh, it's there sort of. It is in a bundle, but I didn't buy the bundle. Just this piece. But this piece doesn't show up in the store. (Besides, even if you bought the bundle, you can't click on the bundle and install it, you have to install each of the individual pieces, so why even show the INSTALL button on a bundle?)

And what good are those tabs like available, and update and installed? Nothing EVER shows up there!

If I log into my account, I can see that I have purchased this product. But I can't find it. 

The only way I can find my new purchases (that I haven't installed) is to search the store tab. And then I find each product and click on INSTALL because like I said...nothing ever shows up in those tabs like available or update.

Sometimes I think I will just forget about Daz Connect and go back to the DIM. At least I can confirm that I have installed something, and I can find out where it put it too!

Hey Kevin, I don't have the male version but it shouldn't be much different than the female version which, if installed correctly, shows up in the Materials section in smart content.  So load up your male character and make sure he's selected in the scene, then check your materials section & look for it there.  I install everything with DIM unless something is connect only.  So if you don't see it in your materials section it probably didn't get installed correctly.

Thanks, tattooedillusions, I found them quite easily today exactly where you said. But I swear I was looking there yesterday and I didn't see them.

It turns out I installed this product through DIM, so I would have been able to use it to locate them in the Content Library.

Apparently I would not be able to install this through Daz Connect, since it does not come in the store tab no matter what I try. And this isn't the only product that wasn't available through Daz Connect when it was suppose to be. The Tattoo for Genesis 3 Male should be available to install via Daz Connect unless the product page is wrong.

And only very rarely does anything ever show up in those other tabs like All, installed, available. I suppose it is something I am doing wrong, but I have tried following the instructions on the Daz website and those tabs just never seem to populate.

I do like the way you can right click on a product icon and it will take you to a view that shows all the items related to that product when you install through Daz Connect. That is a plus.

Sweet, glad ya got it figured out.  Another thing I forgot to mention is sometimes I forget to close Daz before installing something so it won't show right away so I right click in the smart content section & select Refresh and bam there they are lol.  Although with Connect it would seem they would immediately show after installation since it's done right through Studio.  I rarely log in when I open daz so I really don't notice if those tabs have anything or not so I couldn't tell ya if it's a connect bug or not.

All I know is that we need more LIE based tattoo products!!! haha.  One isn't enough especially since that one is a lot of tribal stuff and not much somewhat detailed tattoos.  I do love the back piece that's in the female product though.  That thing is sweet!
