Daz Studio version questions
1 - I tried to use CNB Parah HD for Genesis 8.1 Female CNB Parah HD for Genesis 8.1 Female | Daz 3D and she turned white when applying her texture. So, I re-installed her and restarted my computer.
I realized it is because I run Daz Studio 4.12.1. Well that is what I think, anyway.
She is the cutest and I cannot use her textures, however I can use her morphs, so that's good!!
2 - I hope to put this in the kindest way possible so not to upset anyone.
I have not upgraded to the latest version of Daz Studio because, as I understand it, you need a super duper computer.
I am wondering, in order to gain new users, why wouldn't Daz Studio software be for the average computer owner? Why not have a good version of DS that the average computer owner can use AND a version you have now.
3 - I have stated in other posts, that I have all of the earlier versions of Daz Studio downloaded, however I did not save the one I use now :(
I have no idea what version of DS there was that worked well after the one I use. I would like to download that one. One that improves my version, but doesn't change my life :)
4 - What version do ya'll run right now? What was the version you liked the most?
5 - I have been using Iray since I left Poser in 2018 and began using Daz Studio. I have not had many problems with my computer with the exception of Pudgy the Corgi Pudgy the Corgi | Daz 3D. I used him a year ago and the fur version crashed my computer. Fur is very hard on ram...of course.
6 - I thought I read that many products I have will no longer work with the latest version of Daz Studio. I still have fun using V4 :)
Thank you for any and all of your replies.
I thought you might want to see my level of Daz Studio expertise. I think I'm doing well :)

Not sure why the textures are not appearing.
The easiest way to install two versions of Studio is to have the second one as a Beta. Then you could check if the latest version really is too much for your system.
Use the DIM to install the latest version as a 'Beta', that will not effect your 4.12 so you could both versions.
There's a good chance that the textures are not appearing because the character is using the PBR skin shader, which doesn't work in 4.12.
And yes, installing the latest beta would be a good idea (assuming the 4.12 installed is a general release).
Oh, installing a Beta version sounds excellent!!! Thank ya'll so much!!!
