DAZ Studio and Photoshop

Anyone having trouble with DAZ Studio and Adobe Photoshop 2020 with tattoos and any other adjustments made to a figure in Photoshop not showing up on the figure in DAZ Studio? I have added tattoos to both Genesis male and Female figures in Photoshop and they do not carry across to the figure in DAZ Studio. Both studio and photoshop are connected with 3D Bridge! I have made layers and also flattened the images but to no avail! Cheers

I am not sure that I understand, but I definitely use Photoshop every day.  Do you mean that you opened the materials for a particular model, and in PhotoShop, you plopped a tattoo onto their JPG or PNG, and then it is not showing up in Daz?  If so, you must close Daz and reopen it, IF you do not change the name of the file.  The way I do it is say the model is Joe.  And I want him to have a tattoo on his chest.  I'll go to Joe's materials and find say joe_chest.jpg.  Then copy and paste it so that windows makes a joe_chest_copy.jpg.  That's the one that I open and save in Photoshop and then back in Daz, I open the materials for his chest and change it to the _copy version, and voila, you have a tattoo.  Let me know if it works.

 

Also, for reasons beyond me, my posts all require approval (it happened after I helped a moderator with an issue on the site and I think he accidentally flagged me) so someone else may have already answered this by the time this posts.

I import a figures material/texture from my scene in DAZ Studio to photoshop whilst it is open. I put my tattoo on the texture and try to export it back onto the figure. In past the tattoo has shown up on the figure in DAZ Studio. This has worked but since the latest update the texture does not show up on the figure.I have to save the texture back into the file with a new name and manually put texture on in the Material Room!
