V4 Download Problem

OK I am not new to Daz but today I purchased a bunch of stuff for V4 namely the Victoria starter Bundle, V4 Elite, and a bunch of clothing for V4. When I downloaded the Install Manager said half the products download failed so I checked each one and it said it downloaded each one and installed them. Now I find the content in the right side Content but nothing works I have no control over the morphs ++ or most of the clothing. Plus the materials for several clothing sets are nowhere to be found. Anybody have any idea what happened or how to fix this, it is quite frustrating as I have no issue when I get stuff for Genesis it install correctly. I really can't afford to spend funds on stuff I can't use.

Help Please

    What happens when you try to load Victoria 4,2? What error messages?

    4.2 Base loads when I look through Products I find all the V4 stuff I downloaded the ++ stuff and Elite stuff and CF files etc they all show up on the right side as little icons (Pics) but nothing happens when they are clicked on no error messages just a quick flash that happens when something does not load. But the poses do work and I can load some of the clothing but when I load a skirt/dress I get little spheres or other objects that will then render and should not be there. But I can not alter the V4.2 Base at all.

    Be careful that you are double-clicking on the clothing or hair, not on materials for the clothing or hair - the latter requires the model loaded and seelcted. It's probably easier to see which is which by using the folders under Poser Formats>whatever your library folder is called; items will be in Figures, Hair or Props, settings in Pose or Materials.

    The little balls or triangles are handles to aid in posing -- there is usually a utility pose to set them invisible, or you can go to the Surfaces pane, select the Handles material zone, and set Opacity to zero.

    For the morphs, you need to go to the Pose > DAZ's Victoria 4 > Morph Injections to inject the morphs before they can be used, and then dial the morph slider in the Parameters pane.

    Doing what you said I still only have control off the head as to morphs or expressions all of the rest of the 600+ morphs do not show up in parameters Just one to make a guy basic body and face. Should I uninstall the V4 morphs packs and then install them again as I said there was some kind of issue with downloading them from Daz. So maybe tomorrow sometime I will be back my head hurts right now with all this. I should have stayed with Genesis and not got into trying V4.

    Have a good evening guys and gals.
