Tenley for Genesis 8.1 Female loads with Genesis 8.1 Female

I think I've waited long enough before posting this in the forum.  Submitted a ticket and not even the auto-response.  Constant problem PAs.  When I load Genesis 8.1 Tenley loads as well.  No update in install manager

    if you within your 30 days, could return it and buy it again after they fix it.

    no point in suffering with it

    Apparently Tenley has been distributed with a non-zero default value, which means that it will be activated everytime you load a G8.1F based figure.

    To fix any ill-behaving morphs, do as follows;

    1. Open DS and load "Genesis 8 Basic Female" (to an empty scene)
    2. Help->Troubleshooting->View Log File (clear the log, close it and select "Save" when asked)
    3. Left Click at "Active Pane Options" tab->Preferences->Choose "Show Hidden Properties" (part 4 zeroes only 'visible' dials)
    4. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Zero->Zero Figure (Zeroes the value of all the 'visible' dials)
    5. Right Click at Parameters Tab->Memorize->Memorize Figure (Sets the current value of all the dials as their default value)
    6. Edit->Save As->Support Asset->Save Modified Assets (Writes the changed default value to the morph files that were changed)

    When saving "Modified Assets" DS shows a dialog and asks for confirmation;
    "The following file(s) will be permanently modified:" - "Accept/Cancel" - Choose "Accept"

    Close DS and wait -> Open DS again and load "Genesis 8 Basic Female"

    Help->Troubleshooting->View Log File (Save the logfile somewhere you can easily find it)

    If this procedure doesn't work, you probably have Tenley installed in multiple locations.

    Seriously, vote with your wallet, but explain why you want refund.

    This - honestly stuff like this shouldn't get past QA

    I can add that it is not the first time this happens from this vendor, another character by T.M. called Demona was suffering from the same problem, if you check this thread https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/6404126 you can see something similar, and I have posted there a solution on how to fix the actual character and avoid it from auto loading on every G8 figure, have a look , perhaps this can be solved in the same way :)

    The method described by zx96 is exactly what I do and it works. Just FYI though, not all dsf files are encrypted so try just opening the dsf in a text editor first before renaming and extracting the file (Ozichick's Ellie isn't encrypted so Tenley might not be either). If you see gobblygook right click the dsf file and open it with your archive software directly and extract the file.

    This doesn't change the fundamentals of the process but saves a couple of steps.

    Compressed, not encrypted.

    Yep, mixed up my terminology.

    FWIW, here's the fix for Tenley 8.1, adapted from the Zilpha fiasco:

    Go to "My DAZ 3D Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 8\Female 8_1\Morphs\OziChick\Tenley" and open Tenley.dsf with Notepad ++

    go to line 32 (in my file) and change the "value" : 1,     to   0

    Snippet below shows the correct parameter. This is the non-zero value that's loading Tenley into the 8.1F characters.

    {	"file_version" : "0.6.0.0",	"asset_info" : {		"id" : "/data/Daz%203D/Genesis%208/Female%208_1/Morphs/OziChick/Tenley/Tenley.dsf",		"type" : "modifier",		"contributor" : {			"author" : "OziChick",			"email" : "",			"website" : ""		},		"revision" : "1.0",		"modified" : "2021-01-23T03:22:30Z"	},	"modifier_library" : [		{			"id" : "Tenley",			"name" : "Tenley",			"parent" : "/data/Daz%203D/Genesis%208/Female%208_1/Genesis8_1Female.dsf#Genesis8_1Female",			"presentation" : {				"type" : "Modifier/Shape",				"label" : "",				"description" : "",				"icon_large" : "/data/DAZ%203D/Genesis%208/Female%208_1/Morphs/OziChick/Tenley/Tenley.png",				"icon_small" : "/data/DAZ%203D/Genesis%208/Female%208_1/Morphs/OziChick/Tenley/Tenley.png",				"colors" : [ [ 0, 1, 1 ], [ 1, 0.5019608, 0 ] ]			},			"channel" : {				"id" : "value",				"type" : "float",				"name" : "Tenley",				"label" : "Tenley",				"value" : 0,				"min" : 0,				"max" : 1,				"clamped" : true,				"display_as_percent" : true,				"step_size" : 0.04

     

     

     I'm a massage therapist; I shouldn't have to do this...

    Well, now you can add DSFs to Shiatsu and Swedish.
