There do seem to be issues with the two outfits from the Regency bundle - we have reported this.

Richard,
I bought the Romantic Gentleman Outfit dForce Clothing for Genesis 8 and 8.1 Males (SKU 87103; https://www.daz3d.com/romantic-gentleman-outfit-dforce-clothing-for-genesis-8-and-81-males) yesterday and installed it today with DIM. The pieces of the outfit load fine but I cannot load all of the Iray materials. I can apply the materials for the boots and pants with no problem, but I cannot apply four of the five materials for the shirt, four of the five materials for the waistcoat nor the materials for the coat. When I try to apply the offending materials, I get the same error – “Error opening file – An error occurred while reading the files, see the log file for more details.”
For example, I opened a new file, loaded the coat (RG Coat.duf) and then tried to apply the Purpur material (Purpur Coat.duf) to it. The action failed; below is the info in the Help file.
Do you know if there are unresolved issues in the product. The product page states that the product is compatible with DS 4.21. Should I submit a ticket? Thanks.

Did you have the clothes fitted/parented to the correct figure? "Invalid hierarchy for selected node(s) and "preset_hierarchical_material" type; no root(s) found." means that for the materials to work the pieces have to be parented to the correct base figure. In this case, G8M.
@zombietaggerung - Thanks much! You solved my problem. I was loading the clothing without any figure just to see how the outfit and its pieces looked. Loading a G8M allowed the materials to be applied. I need to learn more about hierachical materials. Again, thanks!
