I have an old V4 figure complete with V4 morphs I want to be able to use in Poser 12. I did it with the help of a friend once years ago but can't seem to get the cr2 file properly converted. I'd also like to have the morph functions still adjustable once I bring it into P12. Am I in need of an old utility program? Any help appreciated.

Hi, I'm trying to get the discount for the coupon code DIRTY-FIGHTING, I have selected the products from the catalogue provided; more specifically Technomancer Props Poses and Expressions for Genesis 8, CDI Poses for Genesis 8 Male and Holt 8 and Aim & Shoot for Victoria 6 and Olympia 6 but when I apply the coupon it says it is not valid. Am I missing something?

Thank you for your time

do you also have a Dark Future new release in the cart as well?

According to the Renderosity forum, there were supposed to be four files. I only got the fourth one, IM00004787-04_Victoria42DeveloperKit. So I haven't gotten nearly so far as to be able to install anything. (I have a seprate runtime/library for my V4-related stuff, so I prefer to use the manual install. And I do use a Mac.)

I tried another route, which was to buy the Victoria 4.2 Starter Pack. It was a little more expensive, but it had some potential additional content.

However, when I went to my Orders page in my account, and clicked on the Download button under the Manual Install option, it did not download anything. It just took me to a page describing the product with my order number on it. This worked earlier today, but it is not working now.

I must be doing something wrong. How do I download (for manual installation)?

Shapes ++ should be the right product. Did you install to the same Content Directory as the base, and if you don't use the PowerLoader tool did you run /Runtime/Libraries/!DAZ/DzCreateExPFiles-v4.bat (for Windows - command script of the same name for Mac) and then inject the morphs from the Pose library, under poser formats, Daz' Victoria 4>Morph Injections (as I recall)?

I own the Victoria 4.2 figure. I would like to add the Victoria 4.2 Morph++ package.

I found an item in the Marketpace called "Victoria 4.2 Shapes++," for which the description seemed to be what I was looking for. So I bought it and downloaded it for manual installation. But all I got was a package to create clothing for Victiora 4.2. There are undoubtedly some developeres out there who want this package, but I am not one of them. I want the morphs that were described under the Victoria 4.2 Shapes++ item.

Daz has very nicely offered to refund my puchase amount. However, I still do not have the Mroph++ package that I would like to buy.

Does anyone have a suggestion of how I should go about finding and buy the morph package?

I really like this render of Victoria 9 HD, more of this session where the goal was to play with the HDRi looking for perspectives where the light helps the cinematography

Thank you for finding that - I didn't see it in the text.
The "V5 General Poses (15 Victoria 5 Poses)" is not available as a separate product, and that is what you are paying for.

I put Victoria 5 Starter Bundle and Pro bundles in my cart because I own all of the items and they should be free. 
They are not free though.  I double checked all of the pages for the items in the bundles, and yes, I own them all, so something is wrong.

Please purchase these items separately. 

They are free for me, even with both in my cart.

It's most likely due to the number of morphs you have installed. They don't need to be applied to slow it down, they just need to exist in a loaded daz library lol. Loading the figures takes longer the more you have installed, and so do posing, expressions, simulations and animations.

I'm assuming you have far fewer G3 and G9 characters than G8/8.1. Case in point: My G9 loaded instantly when I only had Victoria 9, and now it's beginning to show I have a bunch of G9 characters. G8 is worse by a long shot, but I have countless characters.. I try to uninstall the ones I don't use to keep things acceptable.

You could try creating another daz content library in the settings in which you keep the bare minimum to work on your current scenes and another with the rest etc. There's a bunch of videos on the issue like this one.

I did notice make one single big content folder affect the loading speed when you put them on screen, but animation is more about their joint's rigging speed in viewport, I don't think it still loads from all folders when you make any kind of movement on the figure, and as it now, Gen 8 is so slow it killed all my motivation to want to any kind of animation. 

We'd think it would not, but it kind of does. Grabbing a limb and moving it around is super slow with a ton of morphs installed, yet is nearly instant with the bare minumum installed.

Even with stock gen 8/8.1 dev version figure (the fastest gen 8/8.1) with 0 morph on it, grab a limb move around in viewport triggers massive delay on fastest CPU/GPU/SSD, have said that, noted on your advise, i will experiment to move a few most used files into a new content folder and link it, but if what you said is true, then it is one of the kind bad design on fundamental lvl

Will Dforce Clothing Work On  Victoria THREE  (the pre-Genesis generation before Victoria 4) ?
Thanks

daz studio 4.21.0.5, blender 3.5.1, diffeomorphic 1.7.1.1571

@bennie I don't get anything like that. You can try my steps below to test, or provide your exact steps, please make it as simple as possible to reproduce the issue. Be sure to update to the latest commit for bug fixes.

steps (works fine):

1. standard import Victoria 8.1 and merge rigs, or easy import with the default values
2. add custom shapes, add simple ik with full options
3. pose the figure using ik controls

edit. I see Thomas added extra ik controls for arms and legs, not sure what they are for and I see they conflict each other. That's not a issue if we don't use them but I'm going to ask. Now reported.

Do I need to buy the Victoria 9 mega bundle?

I bought her intro bundle and I don't have it.
