G 8.1 Female does not have textures (SOLVED)

edited October 2021 in Daz Studio Discussion

Hello Daz Gurus:

I recently purchased the Victoria 8.1..   I downloaded it and then tried to put it into the render room.  I got a warning that it needed to update Starter Essentials which it did.

However.  When the figure showed up it was without any sort of skin textures..  Making it look like a marble statue.  It is rigged and all of the dials work, it's just missing all of the textures.  I also bought Raw Art's Pearlette and it does the same exact thing.  So both figures are missing their automatic textures.  When you try to apply the textures to them nothing happens.   Does anyone know what went wrong and how to fix this problem?

I've included a screen shot so that you all can see what I mean.

(SOLVED, what brought by my Iray Render Engine was a udate of my drivers.. Who would have thought?  But Emma with DAZ Tech support suggested it and it worked!)

Thank you all very much for your help!  It was much appreciated!

    Are you in Iray preview?

    I had that and then realised I was in Filament preview.

    I'm definatily in Iray Preview.   I didn't even know that a Filament preview existed.

    I loaded a Victoria 8 into the scene and it came out just fine with all of its initial textures and new ones could be added to it.    But the V8.1 is still pure white. sad

    I'm seeing a lot of Scene Option No Longer Supported messages towards the end of it.

    This is in there too: WARNING iray_optix_prime' scene option is no longer supported.

    Here's even more data from the LOG as it exactly appears:

    It was more what does it say regarding loading textures for Victoria?

  • Exactly which version of daz Studio is this - Help>About Daz Studio? It needs to be 4.14.0.2 or later for the new PBRSkin shader, used by Victoria 8.1, to work.

  • squirtsquirt Posts: 168

    I just attempted to apply the Iray Skin textures and did a Help/Troubleshoot/Log and this is the data that came up:

    I'm using the 4.12 version....

    How do I update to the 4.14.0.2 version?

    Have you updated the Default Resources for DS4.15 for the new shader?

  • squirtsquirt Posts: 168

    No, and I'm not even sure how to do that.  Sorry. sad

    Nevermind, you were using an older version... 

    You need to update your DS, which method have you used to install DS and your assets?

     I've been using DIM to install pretty much everything though.  My manual stuff is in a zip file on my desktop which usually contains my Renderosity stuff. 

    I suppose I should look for a method of udated my 3.12 to 3.15.  I found a good video on Youtube and am doing it now.

    It looks like I need to do a udate from 4.12 to the latest version.

  • squirtsquirt Posts: 168

    I can see the Daz 4.15 update now.  Looks like I need to do that update so will do it!

    Understood, but I could find no way to Delete the first one which I put in the Commons.

    I'm stuck at the infamous  Photoshop 3D Bridge for Daz Studio 4.15 + (Win 64bit)....   It wants me to define a path.

    You wouldn't happen to know how I could figure out the right path would you?

    I updated Daz 4.12 to 4.15..  It looks drastically different now.

    I've included a Screenshot to show you what it looks like now.   Does this look right?

    Also, when I look at the version it still says 4.12...  Something is crazy weird here.

  • Daz Studio was running when you installed, probably just in the background as it cleared up. Make sure it is closed in Task Manager's list of processes, then uninstal and reinstall.

    You mean, totally uninstall???

    How does one totally uninstall DAZ?

  • Uninstall the application, and the Dynamic Clothing Control plug-in if you have that, then reinstall - everything else can be left alone.

    Fire up DIM, find Daz Studio in the Installed tab, click "Uninstall." It should then turn up in your "Ready to Download" tab if you refresh. Make sure Daz isn't running while you do this.

    Yep, did that but it didn't solve the problem.  What did is was updating my GeForce Drivers..     But thanks a lot ofr the suggestion Chris and everyone else who helped me.  You all are the BEST!!!!
