Daz Studio 4.8 Pro CLAIMING files are missing

Tinjaw

When I attempt to load a base Genesis 3 Male character I get errors. I says the following files are missing"

/data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Male/Morphs/DAZ 3D/Base/PHMMouthRealismHD.dsf

/data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Male/Morphs/DAZ 3D/Base/PBMNavel.dsf

/data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Male/Genesis3Male.dsf

But the files exist. I have deleted and reinstalled twice. Any idea what might be wrong?

What is the full path, starting from the drive letter or name? The Data folder must be in the root of a content directory, it mustn't be in a sub-folder - if you manually installed by unzipping the download from Daz you will have an unwanted folder named Content in the way.

Z:\DAZ 3D\My DAZ 3D Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 3\

I also just tried the female and got similar erors.

/data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Female/Morphs/DAZ 3D/Base/PHMMouthRealismHD.dsf

/data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Female/Genesis3Female.dsf

/data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Female/Morphs/DAZ 3D/Base/PBMNavel.dsf

Have you set Z:\DAZ 3D\My DAZ 3D Library\ as a DAZ Studio Content Directory?

Ah. That was it. Appearantly I did a prior install and set them to Z:\My Daz 3D Library. When I changed that is fixed it. Now it gets stuck on a file that does not exist.

/data/Age of Armour/Subsurface Shaders/AoA_Subsurface/AoA_Subsurface.dsf

That is from the Default Lights and Shaders package, which should also be available through DIM or the Daz Studio page of your Product Library.

That did it. Thank you so very very much.
