I also bought the geolocator and installed the current version. I also suffer from the black screen. I get the same error as Three Wishes.
Are there any troubleshooting steps that I can go through that you gleaned from Three Wishe's experience? I'm running Win 10. I get the same error in 4.8 and the 4.9 Beta of Studio.
I had to uninstall the plugin, as it blocked my sun-sky settings entirely.
Hi Bee, usually the issue in an incorrect permissions setting in the Documents/DAZ 3D/Studio folder; if you contact me at info@alessandromastronardi.com I can give you direct support and guide you to fix the issue. Cheers
Awesome plugin! If you ever wonder what next to make, I'd suggest a stand-alone astronomy companion product for dusk/night/dawn shots showing things like the moon and stars.
I have bought this product, but i have a problem with it, it`s black no light

No such folder
If it doesn't exist then the plugin for some reasons can't create it. You could manually create it and it should work.

Tried that, Still doesn't work. Just as a test I downloaded the V1.1 files for macOS and they seem to work so it looks like its something thats not playing nice with the 1.2 update

No, but it is putting 2 txt files (geoLocatorLogFile.txt & tempGeo.txt) in Applications/DAZ 3D/DAZStudio4 64-bit/plugins/geolocatorAM/. But those files are not created with 1.2 version
Update 1.2 was released just to fix the issue of the missing files, which in fact would affect some systems with incorrect permissions in the plugins folder. On your system it seems like it's the opposite, i.e. v. 1.1 is actually writing the files while 1.2 wouldn't. It shouldn't be a big deal anyway, that was basically the reason for the update, while the core features remained the same.

Many thanks for you help, For now I will stick with the 1.1 version as that seems to be working. If you ever figure out the problem and want someone to test it then I would be glad to do so, In the mean time stay safe and keep creating.

Thanks to you for your patience. I'll check if I can understand what's wrong. In any case feel free to contact me also via email if you want. Cheers and take care too.
In my case it wasn't though I had uinstalled/reinstalled via DazCentral (not using DIM anymore), it wasn't appearing and had to download/use the manual installer exe for Win64

Hi Bee, usually the issue in an incorrect permissions setting in the Documents/DAZ 3D/Studio folder; if you contact me at info@alessandromastronardi.com I can give you direct support and guide you to fix the issue. Cheers
Solved, thanks to Alessandro.
I have purchased this and cannot locate it anywhere. Where is it?
Thank you.
Have you entered the Serial Number? If no, you'll have to enter that first. You'll find it in your account, under Serial Numbers.
If yes, you'll have to open the Pane in the Window menu.
I reinstalled it and it works fine now.
Thank you, awesome product!

with 4.15.0.30, my installation of Iray Geolocator stopped working (might have stopped before, with 4.15.02, but I did not check).
So far, so good. But
I tried this on my working rig (iMac Pro macOS 10.15.7) and on a fresh install in Windows 10 (iMac Pro using Bootcamp). Same results.
In my case it wasn't though I had uinstalled/reinstalled via DazCentral (not using DIM anymore), it wasn't appearing and had to download/use the manual installer exe for Win64
