Daz freezez & confusion on Daz Studio versions
Hi all.
I am writing this because in the last 2 days I have experienced freezez of my Daz Studio 4.23 "Premium". Daz freezez at easy controlls, like moving a leg or adjusting poses.
So I have Daz Studio 4.23 Public Build BETA and Daz Studio 4.23. Both are installed in my PC.
I installed Daz Studio 4.23 when I upgraded to Premium and got the Premium Plugins (at least that's what it looks like to me). A week after that, for redundancy and parallel workflow, I installed Daz Studio 4.23 Public Build BETA.
When Daz announces updates, like the latest one 4.23.1.18 from Jan 15, is this update for the both Daz Studio 4.23 and Daz Studio 4.23 BETA? And then there is Daz Studio Pro, WTF is that? Where does it fit in the lineup?
Here are my system stats:
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 16-Core Processor, 4501 Mhz, 16 Core(s), 32 Logical Processor(s)
Motherboard ProArt B650-CREATOR
128 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 (latest Studio driver 566.36 from Dec 2024, installed)

Public Build is clearly marked as PB (ss1) and it's for DS Public Build (aka DS Beta version) ONLY. DS General Release has not mark of Public Build or Beta. So it should be easy to tell which is which.
Thanks for the quick reply. It's strange that my Premier add-ons are not flagged with PB like yours are. But I am assuming it's because they are installed in DS General Release.
Can I somehow install them in my Daz Public Build? At the moment they are only funtional in DS General Release.
Oh, and Daz Studio Pro? What is that?
Yea, probably. My way is always using a really stable General Release + latest Public Build. So I never install both of General Release + Public Build when they're released at the same time.
For plugins ? Nope, the Premier plugins also have the compiled versions of their own, i.e. Premier plugins for General Release won't work in Public Build.
Edit: Starting from DS 4.23, the application is not named / labeled as Daz Studio Pro. It's just Daz Studio 4.23... I don't know why ~~
Sounds to me like I need to raise a ticket with the Daz staff to have my Premier plugins installed on the Public Built.
Thank you for the info, you've shed quite a lot of light in the situation.
No problem ~ Besides, also dbl-check if you used the Premier account to log in DIM... If the issue persists, yea, you have to fill a ticket.
I managed to solve it without a ticket. I dug around in DIM and found that all Premier plugins had a PB and non-PB version. I installed the PB version and it went straight to the DS PB Built. All is well now.
Great !
