I install this product today, and could not find it in Smart Content or in the Content Library. I've looked everywhere.
Does anyone know where to find it?
Comments
Readme files tell you where to find product files.
Hmmm. Is there any way to get the product to appear in the Smart Content pane?
It should, under its categories (as listed in the readme).
Nah... because the metadata of this product is wrong.... If you wanna use it from Smart Content, go to the folder -: your Daz Library\Runtime\Support, search 32921. Open the file "DAZ_3D_32921_i13_IMPLICATIONS_for_the_Genesis_3_Male(s)_and_Genesis_3_Female(s).dsx" with an Editor. Replace "Content/" with "", then re-import metadata.
Recommend using this free script to import a single metadata file -: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/618456/add-to-smart-content
Thanks. I figured it was something like that. What a headache.
I only bought it because it was on sale, so more trouble than it is worth. I give up easily. So I will return it.
If you open up the content library tab, you can easily find it in the G3F poses folder. There is a large group of user that never use smart content, because the content library is the original way of finding content.
There is always more than one way to access content, if there's an issue with metadata.
I came to DAZ after Smart Content was already a thing. So I guess I'm spoiled in that I really want everything in Smart Content.
I did try to add the IMPLICATIONS poses to my favorites category directly from the Content Library, but they still would not show up under my favorites either. I have added 3rd party content to favorites without a problem, so not sure why it just won't cooperate.
One simple fix is to load Genesis 3 Male, and make sure it is selected, then drag the poses (mutli-select and do it in one go, if that is suitable) into the desired category in the Smart Content pane. If they lack types you may then have to set the type in a pop-up dialogue, butt hat should be all that is needed.
