Finding and Transfering Genesis material from DAZ to Poser

I exported the new Grecian Dress from DAZ as a Poser Cr2.

Next I used XD4 from Evil Innocence to Transform the dress to my favorite DAZ character.

The dress is asking for textures.

I am assuming it's asking for textures that didn't export from DAZ.

I am thinking that I will have to transport them manually.

Where in DAZ studio do I find textures?

Yes this is a genesis product. Looks nice but boring without the proper textures.

Thank you for your help.

    The actual texture jpgs are kept in the same location you'd find them for Poser.
    Your Daz Library\Runtime\Textures

    From there, you'd have to search for either the creator's or product's name.

    Thank you! The creators name is Sarsa and they were right where you said they would be.

    I would give you a render as a thank you however, for some reason the Genesis folder refuses to close and it appears to have brought down my runtime to a halt.

    I found out things about Genesis, things I'm not happy about but it's a learning curve certainly. I was trying to change the clothing to a cr2 which I did successfully, rigged to Aiko 3 which I did with the help of Crossdresser. And the top just doesn't look right.

    I do realize that I'm now 3 Generations behind and that I should buy the two add ons for DAZ studio in order to use for the legacy figures.

    Still, it's been interesting. I found DAZ studio to be interesting as well. It's not that intuitive at first with it's many windows telling me about videos and such but as I learn, I'll also learn to turn off the windows so I can get the tools where I please.

    Coke and Pepsi. DAZ and Poser. At least the two giants talked to each other and for that I'm grateful.

    Thanks for the help!

    You're welcome. :)

    There is also the DSON Imported for Poser that's in the store, it's free if you've purchased Genesis content at all (or something like that). This allows Genesis content to be used in Poser directly. The content does need to have DSON in the product info on the store page, however. Some come with the poser companion files already made for you, and some don't.

    I'm only just now looking into the DSON myself, but I'm a DS user and just bought Poser, so I'm actually going the reverse of most people here. lol

    Kerya also posted a link to a free script that allows you to open DSON files even if there are no PoserCF (or you could create them via DS instead of using the script if you wanted).

    I am trying to use the DSON Importer for Poser. I have it installed and can load in the Genesis figure without error but it is invisible. How do I get the texture to load too?

    Did you install both "Genesis Starter Essentials" and "Genesis Starter Essentials PoserCF" to a writable content folder known to Poser?

    As far as I know I did. I know I installed both. Genesis Starter Essentials went to the main DAZ Studio directory and Genesis Starter Essentials PoserCF went to the main Poser directory.

    Is your DAZ Studio directory listed as a content folder in Poser? And by "main Poser directory" do you mean inside Program Files or in Documents?

    Hi, excuse my English this is not my first language. In Poser 2014, I'm not sure if I installed correctly, so I will tell you what I did: I took these files:
    IM00016280-03_Genesis2MaleStarterEssentials.zip
    IM00016280-04_Genesis2MaleStarterEssentialsPoserCF
    IM00016280-01_Genesis2FemaleStarterEssentials.zip
    IM00016280-02_Genesis2FemaleStarterEssentialsPoserCF.zip
    IM00014812-02_GenesisStarterEssentialsPoserCF.zip
    IM00014812-01_GenesisStarterEssentials.zip
    The poserCF files are from my product library here: http://www.daz3d.com/downloader/customer/files/ .
    The other files are from the dowload path of Install Manager.
    I Installed these zip files by Poser Content tab and I clicked on the Install From Zip Archive button.

    The DSON Importer for Poser is installed correctly, because I was able to load all the Gen5 and Gen6 figures in Poser.

    I also installed V4 in Poser with this file: ps_pe069_Victoria4.exe that I downloaded a few month ago from my product library here: http://www.daz3d.com/downloader/customer/files/ . That have an installer that let me choose the path of Poser and It's installed correctly because I can load V4 in poser.

    Now I have a lot of content bought from DAZ that are DSON importer compatible.
    I have 38 Gigs of DAZ content. Do I have to reinstall All the DSON importer compatible content in Poser ?

    I have those bundles : Victoria 6 Pro Bundle, Victoria 5, Michael 5 Pro Bundle Michael 4 Pro Bundle Stephanie 4 Pro Bundle Fantasy Starter Bundle Aiko 4 Pro Bundle V5, and more...

    I bought morphs props lights for DAZ how can I install all these things in Poser ?

    In Poser I added a library for DAZ Content this is the path: D:\utils\dazcontent\Runtime\librairies\Character.

    This is the path of my content library for DAZ Studio 4.6

    Does it help to do something in Poser ? If so can I add an other path?

    In the Install manager for DAZ Studio Since I added this path: D:\utils\Poser Pro 2014 Content\Poser Pro 2014 Content, (this is the path of my Poser 2014 Content) in the settings Applications tab,there are new files (that end by PS, I know it's for Poser) in the ready to download Products . Is there a way that I install these PS file directly from IM in poser because I already installed the non PS files in DAZ .
    In the future if I buy some DSON importer compatible content will it install automaticaly in Poser by the Install Manager for DAZ . And if so how?

    Thank you.
