I just installed Advanced Shaders 1.5 using DIM - I 'think' they're installed. Where would I find the tutorials that came with it? I looked in the "Select a lesson" at the bottom but I don't see them.

    For a start, it is a Poser product, not DS, so my guess is the tutorials are not installed via DIM.

    If you download the files manually, the docs are in the 'Content\Shaderworks Docs' folder inside the zip file (I don't use DIM wink)

    I know this thread is 'slightly' old but they are installed here:

    My DAZ 3D Library\Runtime\Python\poserScripts

    My DAZ 3D Library/ShaderWorks Docs

    Providing you use the default locations.  And for future reference if you want to find where DIM installs files:

    Open DIM

    click installed tab

    right click on the installed item you want to learn about

    click on show installed files

    It is a very handy option.  There have been many times I wanted to use or catagorize something I just installed and couldn't find it.  Usually because it was a poser item and they stuck it in the pose folder or materials or somewhere else that didn't really make sense.

    Poser product, remember. Poser uses Python scripting, DAZ|Studio uses Qt scripting, and never the two shall interoperate — anything with Python scripts won't work in D|S. Unless you have Poser installed as well as D|S, you can't use it.

    Note that there are other Poser-only things lurking in the DAZ store to look out for. Anything made for the Poser Hair Room, or Cloth Room, and Procedural materials for the Material Room, will not work in D|S.

    I am well aware of that.  However, that IS where DIM installs it by default and the original question was where are the tutorials.  That is why I menioned where it was (and how to find out where DIM has installed a product).  It was already addresed earlier in the thread that it was poser only. :)

    A friend just saw than "Advanced Shaders 1.5" are no more available on the site. Do you know if Semidieu put that plugin somewhere else?
