Ok, about some morphs I've downloaded

They work the 1st time I install them

But after I isntall them, open Daz and close the program

I open up Daz again...they don't work anymore

What's going on?

This happens with both free and and store stuff

For the free stuff, I've normally resaved the morphs

But still...why is this happening?

    What figure are the morphs for?

    Genesis

    I mostly found that...any product with words Ideal Beauty are the worst, those won't even dial at all

    Only thing I can think of for Genesis morphs not working properly is if there's a runtime issue. Perhaps duplicate /data files somewhere or nested runtimes.

    Well, the Ideal Beatuy stuff I got

    Those don't dial

    But at least the free ones, they dial that 1 time so I can resave them

    not sure what would happen if I were to resave the ones that don't even work to begin with

    Ahhh.. ok. Reading the Ideal Beauty product pages, they work in the background and you're not supposed to dial them in manually. They auto-adjust as you pose the figure. They also only work with certain Genesis shapes.

    Feet:
    Basic Female
    Victoria 4
    Victoria 5
    Aiko 4
    Aiko 5
    Stepanie 5
    Julie
    Mavka
    Basic Child

    Knees:
    Basic Female
    Victoria 4
    Victoria 5
    Aiko 4
    Aiko 5
    Stepanie 5
    Julie
    Mavka
    Basic Child

    Then I guess...their stuff isn't much use to me

    Their feet morphs, at least those dialed for me

    They're not really 'morphs' per-se. They're meant more to help simulate soft body dynamics in those areas of Genesis. They auto-adjust as you pose Genesis to give you a more natural flow to the pose. Think of the Perfect V4 products, but for Genesis.

    I don't have the product, but from the sounds of the product page, I have the jist of it.

    I don't know of any foot morphs specifically, other than what may already be in the current morph packs.

    From the "Description":

    These morphs work in the background and automatically apply when the foot or toes are posed.

    So they are indeed correctional morphs supposed to be applied automatically once you e.g. bend the foot of Genesis or so. Dialing them yourself might be possible, but may probably not give the desired effect you are seeking.

    Are you getting an error message about the morphs not loading? DS 4.6.1.x apparently broke the ability to load some or all morphs after files are saved and this was reported on the (now defunct) Mantis bug tracker. several users commented that it affected gen4 figures, I don't remember if Genesis was part of that discovery.
    If this is the case the last report I logged with this problem was closed and I was told this would be fixed in 4.6.2.x whenever that comes out. In the mean time you can try to close the file and load it again, or load the file with the missing morphs and re-inject them. it also will sometimes load the file and not report anything but the morphs are broken.
    I don't know if this is what you're seeing but if so it was reported a few months back and we're waiting for the fix.

    Yes, but it also says this

    The pack also includes user facing morphs that allow the user to customize the shape of the foot, toes and ankles.
