    You would install to \DAZ 3d\Studio\My Library if using DAZ Studio 4, and if you accepted the default path for content. Note, however, that the DS installer is only extras for use in DAZ Studio - it's the bigger file, with DPC in the name, that is the main installer.

    you install the file that says V4.2_dpc.exe before you install the one you are trying to install. That one will only install properly after the ,dpc.exe has been installed.

    All DS4 content should be installed into C:\Users\"UserName"\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library
    "UserName" = your name. Install all three files into that directory.

    No. Go to your itemised order history, find the file and click reset

    You do not need to redownload. Just install the files you have. They should work.

    Tip: V4 will not show in the Smart Content Tab. Look in the Content Library Tab under DAZ Formats and in Poser Formats.

    Daz Studio uses both type of files. As long as you install into the My Library folder it will not matter what you chose Daz Or Poser. You just need to be sure they all get installed into My Library.

    Under the Menu Window open TABS under it select Content Library. When it opens At the top is Daz Studio Formats and Poser Formats. In Poser Formats goto My Library then Figures then Daz People. You should find V4. this is the one you load.
    Under Daz Studio Formats goto My Library then People then Materials you should find the TEXTURES to go with V4.

    Follow this:
    All DS4 content should be installed into C:\Users\“UserName”\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library
    “UserName” = your name. Install all three files into that directory.
    ps_pe069_Victoria 4 is installed first.

    then

    ps_pe069_Victoria 4ds is installed 2nd

    then the last file
    When asked which program just pick DAZ.
    Daz Studio uses both type of files. As long as you install into the My Library folder it will not matter what you chose Daz Or Poser. You just need to be sure they all get installed into My Library.

    Under the Menu Window open TABS under it select Content Library. When it opens, At the top is Daz Studio Formats and Poser Formats. In Poser Formats goto My Library then Figures then Daz People. You should find V4. this is the one you load.
    Under Daz Studio Formats goto My Library then People then Materials you should find the TEXTURES to go with V4.

    If this does not work I need to know if you did a Standard DAZ Studio install of the Main Program. Did you change any options when you installed Daz Studio 4Pro the very first time? If not Tell me what your computer type is and your operating System is.
    Mine is this: Ibm based PC with Win7 64bit.

    I hope we get you working soon.

    Thank you very much now it's working I got V4. Just for information I have Daz Studio 4 Pro and I 'm using W7 but my computer is not a bite old so It's a bite hard to use Daz. Thx a lot Jaderail.
