I give up, ... I need some help with V4.2 in Studio 4.9.

I just desided to switch from poser (used poser 8) to Daz Studio 4.9. So, I have used the DIM to install a lot of the content from Daz, but V4.2 doesn't install. I see the icon for her in the smart content files, but no actual thumbnail. I just have a triangle warning icon.

So, since everything else installed right, I believe the file path is correct. But again, when I go to those files I just see the 2 folders for materials and poses, nothing else. So, how am I supposed to get v4.2 in there with all of her morph ++?

Why did you reinstall V4.2? You can use existing Poser runtime in DS4. Make the link to ALL your Poser runtimes in the library manager of DS4.  That was my choice and I have no problem with Poser contents including V4.

Perhaps your DIM install folder is not known in the library manager.

It sounds like you're looking in the DAZ Studio Formats section of the Content Library. V4 is a Poser figure with extra D|S materials — open the Poser Formats section instead and look in Figures>DAZ People.

To expand slightly on what SpottedKitty said, V4.2 will be found in the Content Library pane as Poser Formats > 3DContent > Figures > Daz People. All of the Version 4 or earlier DAZ figures that you have should be listed there. Unlike Poser, if you have the Powerloader you can also install any V4 morph packages using that all at once along with the figure if desired.

Edited thread title to give DS it's proper numbering.
