Can't find Genesis 8 Female Body Morphs.

in Daz Studio Discussion

Ok, I don't know why I can't find them but they're not anywhere. I've checked the Parameters tab, the Posing Tab and the Shaping tab whenever I load in a G8 figure.

Google searches lead me to many responses like this one: "You'll find the Genesis 8 Female Body Morphs in the shaping tab with a Genesis 8 Female selected. Morphs can be found under Actor >> Full Body >> Real World, Hip >> Real World, Legs >> Real World, etc." But when I check those paths, all I have are 5 morphs that I think are just stock morphs. Nothing else. I don't see any of the morphs listed here: https://www.daz3d.com/genesis-8-female-body-morphs

If I select the chest, all I see is "Chest scale" and "Nipples".

I even made sure that the Gen 8 essential starters and the moprhs themselves were re-installed via the install manager. I checked the files on my HD and they are there, but when I check in Studio I don't find them. What super obvious thing am I missing that will make me feel really dumb?

    I find those morphs for Genesis 8 Body Morphs  in the Shaping tab > Actor > Full Body > Real World; If you see morphs there, look for Voluptous, Fitness, and Tone.

    I've looked there but the only morphs I see are "Bodybuilder" "Bodybuilder Details" "Bodybuilder Size" "Emaciated" and "Pear Figure". :(

    Where are the files installed on your disk exactly?

    According to the Install Manager they're installed at "C:/Users/Public/Documents/My DAZ 3D Library". To confirm that I opened the directory and the files are there, I counted them and they match up to the Install Managers list of files.

    If they're just sitting in My Daz 3D Library, that's probably the problem: they should be placed where other G8F morphs are. Mine are further filed into data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 8\Female\Morphs\DAZ 3D\Body.

    And that directory is in the list of DS content directories in DS preferences?

    Yes, I have two directories listed under the DAZ Sutdio Formats "C:/Users/Public/Documents/My DAZ 3D Library" and "C:\Users\XXXX\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library\data" I manually downloaded the files from DAZ, put them in those folders and still nothing.

     

    Strange thing is, I purchased a hair that was on sale and that installed just fine.

     

    I also installed DS on my laptop to see if I screwed anything up on my this PC somehow but it's the same thing. I can't find the morphs on any G8F. o_O

    Oh, one thing to consider is a potential conflict with Connect. Find the morphs in your content library and/or smart content. Try uninstalling them from there, then uninstall and reinstall via DIM.

    The second one should stop at "my library", not "data". It's probably not relevant in this case since the morphs are installed in the other directory, but still it could cause problems for content installed in "my library".

    How was G8F installed, with DIM too? In the same directory?

    G8F was installed via the Smart Content tab, that's would be the "C:\Users\XXXX\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Daz Connect Library" directory which works just fine. The strange thing is, I have the G8F Head Morphs and the HD Expressions and they're where they're supposed to be and they work just fine.

    Ok, I did a search for one of the morphs in file explorer, found it in the Smart Connect folder, deleted all the morphs within that folder and reinstalled the morphs via Install Manager...

    Now it works! All the morphs show up and everything seems to be working 100%. I'm glad that's over.

    Thanks for all the help!

    Was the Connect version still installed when you installed the DIM one? When something is installed both via Connect and via DIM then DS will use the Connect version, so if there was something wrong with the Connect version thenjust installing the DIM version wouldn't have fixed it.

    It was. I just thought that it wasn't because the morphs weren't showing up. At least now I know one of the first things to try if this ever happens again.

    Thanks again Leana and Gordig!
