Is Daz Studio 410 still available to download?

Apologies if this has been asked and answered before, but how can I download DAZ Studio Pro 4.10 to reinstall it?

4.11 is a wash for me. Iray won't use my NVidia graphics card because it's too "old" for iray (even though it's more powerful than the integrated GPU which it will use, go figure) and now DAZ Studio insists on using the same integrated GPU as the default graphics card, even though the NVidia is set as the default for DAZ Studio in the NVidia Control Panel. Very frustrating, when everything was working well prior to this update. I am using the latest graphics drivers for this NVidia card, so no luck there.

So, I need to roll back to 4.10. Is there a download location please, as I know I'm not alone in this problem.

Many thanks!

    Only one version of the general release and one version of the beta are available for download at a given time. So no, 4.10 is not available anymore.

    You can try opening a support ticket to see if Daz support can provide you with a copy of 4.10.

    Thank you for the reply, I'll raise a ticket.

    Daz typically does not provide installers to previous versions as matter of policy.

    I have chosen to remain on 4.8 as I dont use Iray or the G8 figures in Daz studio

    I have the stand alone 4.10 win 64 installer, however  the Daz EULA prohibits its redistribution by any third party

    Thus those who have not archived the stand alone installer have no viable options  for reverting outside of the extreme  of restoring  their entire windows  system install back to previous state before the 4.11 update.

  • It is a good idea to always make a backup of the DS zip file you are using before updating to a new version so you have it just in case, not much use now but for next time ;)

    4.12 is a horror show. I had 4.10 and upgraded and now it's unusalbe. Yes, I updated the graphic drivers and played with the setttings. What the heck? Is my 1070 no good anymore? Well I always have Poser.

    1070 *should* work fine. I use a 1070 and a 2080 super in tandem on my rig.

    How is it a horror show? Exactly which drivers are you using? Have you tried fully uninstalling the drivers and doing a clean reinstall?

  • Hey! Just a passerby, willing to admit that 4.12 have a broken "merge fitting geometry" function. The very same files on 4.10 works well to me, so I'm here on sept 2020 looking for old 4.10 install either.

    Sadly, once the new versions of Daz Studio come out, the old downloads will be gone.

    I am so happy I still have older Studio version downloaded, just in case.

    I would suggest to do that , from now on, too.

    What do you mean? I suspect this isn't a version-specific issue, but if you open a support ticket they can work with you and if necessary may be able to supply an older version of DS.

  • Same issue here, a lot of scripting API functions are broken since 4.12, like the "Silent DAE Exporter", wich doesn't work anymore... I posted here to report more details, but it seems my post had been deleted, don't know why, (it would have been cool to explain me what I did wrong, but hey^^)

    Hope you'll find a solution!

    Posting to the forums is not making a bug report, though ti can help in clarifying the issue for a report. In this case you need to provide more information about how you were calling the function and how it broke, whether as a forum post or as an actual report to Daz.

  • even if you don't have the installer...  if you have ever backed your daz studio folder to an external drive for back up..  as long as daz is still installed on your main drive what ever versions you have copled off to exteral drives will still run from those locations ..

    running windows 7 .. So things might not work for you but I one point a couple years ago I even found a 4.6 that would still run.
