halo To Roman & K2 3DAGE & Jimmyc
well, i thought i would Let you know Ive solved it !!!
everything is where it should be and Seems to work touch wood.
clean the computer with advanced System care.
after the 3rd time Installation , , After each new add-on like victoria ect morphs, victoria 5 ext ..
plugins characters, I initalized them by starting DAZ Studio Updating DAZ then save Exit then I installed the next item
ect ect..
the other thing i found was Deactivate Windows FireWall antivirus software that may of make some little problem.
I made sure all in recomended Settings Bitrock-Installer paths,
Accepting everything to My Libruary as final destination ..program goes into
it worked!
I had the PROBLEM WITH "Genesis Starter Essentuals Pack"
how i don't know ? checked to see if DAZ was ok between Installing after Victoria 5 ........ Installed the freebee
"Genesis Starter Essentuals Pack
I got the message : no importer for the file format can be foundeverything I mean EVERYTHING went wrong
little pictures Icons of items in the Menue all orange or missing in action! !!!! nothing worked!!
it's taken me 3 Installations
so i Installed all over again, this time without genesisi starter pack
everything is fine
thank you all
Mal
It is called Genesis Starter Essentials because it is Essential for all genesis items to work. It comes With DS4.5 so it should be the VERY first thing installed after DS4.5. The steps are Install DS4.5 then the Genesis Starter Essentials then any other files. I thought that the fact it comes with the DS4.5 Install package automatically made it clear that it was part of the default installs. I am sorry that I assumed other users knew that.

i hope you can answer a few questions i have Supersuit
everything is working now, i'm very happy about that
i have just got the package supersuit
learning how to use it,
zip files in winRar
i'm not sure what settings to use when installing unzip files,
it gives different options.
i have used the BitRock installer for installation of the supersuit
but there are two other Zip Files which it says i can use.
but i don't want to make any mistake installing them. there is no documentation showing me where to install them,
but in WinRaR there are some options: extract and replace files. extract and update files
not sure which box to tick
can you help ?
best wishes
mal
Just "Extract" to the same folder your are in and then Look inside the unzipped folder to see the directory setup. That will give you a clue to where to put them. Then Copy and Paste to where you want them.
thank you to Szark
i will have a look
1 ) they are jpeg files
look like mats drawings of facemask skins
2) looks like mesh, drawings mats like wire frame covering mats
skins
nothing to say where they go
i have the genisis suit, loaded, nice colures, on the figure,
but the other things don't want to load.
i wonder how to get the assets, clothing, or textures to load,
and the nice designs on clothings, or colures, for clothing, they said in the product info, there would be sliders
depicting the different colures to change on the figure, but i can't find them.
like cyborg, the picture in the Libruay, it say load it.. but i't won't load.
any ideas ?
thank you
i'm using the basic Genisis figure.
thanks

As for your last question I am sorry but I don't have the Supersuit so I cannot help. Hopefully someone who has the Supersuit can advise.
Hi :)
Were the other Supersuit downloads (zip files) purchased from the store, or downloaded from the products page in the (Additional Resources) section ?
Normally you can download a UV Mapping Template, which is a "Wire-frame" template to allow you to create your own texture maps for the clothing in an image editor like Photoshop, Paint-shop pro etc..
those templates are normally supplied in a Zip file.
For unzipping Content using Win-Rar..
Right click on the zip file,.. and choose ( Extract files...)
In the browser window which opens up,. Navigate to your Daz studio library folder..
something like C:\Users\Your_name_\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library.
click OK
if any files from the zip archive already exist in the folders they're being extracted to,. you'll be asked what you want to do.
What you do, depends on the files which already exist. (winRar will show you the file name)
they may already exist because you've already installed the product,.. or it could be something as simple as a "read_me" document with the same name.
3DAGE thanks the templates didn't even come to mind. I use 7-Zip only and never used WInRar
As for your last question I am sorry but I don't have the Supersuit so I cannot help. Hopefully someone who has the Supersuit can advise.
i tried maching up the files
sorry but i have to write it in the forum
these are the things i have trouble with right now

.Problem with Supersuit PresetLoads
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Supersuit loads Ok But Complete Presets Don't load
Note : I have Loaded the " supersuit" First after then tried the Presets = still not loading!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Re: UV Mapping Template/ Wire-frame template
* I don't have Photoshop or Paint-shop pro
Files normally go here= C:\Users\Malmaoo\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library
and from here get Distributed themselves into other subFiles
withing that directory.
files just stay in My Libruary and stop there because WinRar does
not know where to put them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Possibly The Settings in WinRaR are a fault?
Extract and Replace files *
Extract and update files
Fresh existing files only
Ask before overwrite*
Advanced
Extract relative paths*
Extract full paths
Inside DaZ Studio Program when it's running
I can see the structure look up where things are,
---------------------------------------------------------------

templates_13966_genesissupersuit
1_Supersuit_T
templates_13966_genesissupersuitcolor
1_Colored_Supersuit_T

i hope i can find the answers
thank you for any help and advice

mal you are not listening so it is becoming harder to help you. When we ask questions to help you resolve the problems can you please answer in full.
What is the actual name of the presets that will not work, complete with the file extension please. If no file extensions are visible hit F2 > Content Library and Check “Show File Extensions” and hit Accept.

Now that I know what the zip files are then you can put them anywhere you want. These Zip files for Supersuit are Uvmap Templates. Don't know what an UVmap is then google is your friend. If you intend to retexture the supersuit then yes you would need these templates but for now I can't see you getting close to even doing that right know. I am not been mean just speaking plainly so don’t waste time with something you may not need at the point.

Genesis Supersuit i Learned something today..
Because i did not use Surface Selection!
Smart menue knows where to Go, ie Supersuit, then smart menue shows
options for Clothing (smart content select ) i select "Supersuit.dsf" first
then any of the colures and Items , cloths it works
But there is a lot more to it, than simply selecting an iten.
Not as Easy as it looks!
Navigation tool / surface select thank you for your push in the Right Dirrection!!!
i like very much Straight talking .. it helps me more solves the problem.
thank you so much I've been on it for hours I hope i can upload a Picture
Using Fraps it's perfect for taking a picture
---------------------------------------------------
Render Library making Jpegs
I bet there is a simple solution for this ive not found it, but i'm sure there is a simple answer
* Render in New WIndow " Yes"
* Render Library on hard Drive "Yes"
C:\Users\Malmaoo\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\Render Library\pictures
then i try to Open any of the saves Jpegs not Png
for some reason the KB size is low
----------------------------------------------------------
120 KB (122,880 bytes)
168 KB (172,032 bytes
-------------------------------------------
i know it should work,
but i can use fraps for taking screen capture instead
i should be happy about that
------------------------------------------------------------
very best wishes

to show the Files
File size has nothing to do with Image size. File size depends on how much information (in a image it's different colors and amount of image used with no empty space) the Render size is set by the program that made the image. To see your pictures at full size just open one with a 2D art program like MSPaint, Gimp or PhotoShop and and set it to view at original size or full view mode.
Thx Jad
HI All :)
just a thought here,..
In the screen-capture above, ..in the file properties, it's set to open with "Windows Live Photo Gallery" ..does anyone know if that an on-line application which requires an internet connection to run... which could possibly explain why jpegs aren't opening.
Windows 7 has a "windows photo viewer" built in.. with simple options to show full scale, or magnified in / out.
try changing the jpg file format to open in "Windows Photo Viewer"
Right click on any jpeg image , select "open with" and select Windows Photo viewer from the list of available programs.
Photo Gallery is pretty much the same thing, never figured out why we got two that did the same thing. All my images open in both without a problem. In both you need to tell the Viewer to show full size or they auto show at reduced to fit screen.
hi
thats what it says yes
i found i can open the pictures in PAINT
but not in any windows live gallery
or photo viewer
hi, and thank you to all,
i tried to include in Windows Live gallery
i can do that, but none of the pictures will open .
Pictures all Opens In MSPaint nice and big. so that's ok at the present time.
In Folder Propertys box, i have ticked full permisions .
After the last MS Security Update, or after i Downloaded and Installed something,
or maybe there are Gremlins at work In the computer.
I did a complet antivirus scan and Run Ubit Advanced System care but did not find anything.

Go and get yourself GIMP... http://www.gimp.org/ it is a free open source software for editing images etc. I use it a lot these days. There are planty of tutorials online for GIMP.
Hi Szark :)
I wasn't sure about Windows "Live" part of it,.. and though it may need a net connection or online storage area or some other nonsense like that.
It's definitely strange that Mal's system isn't opening images in the default Windows photo viewer,.. but I'd also recommend downloading "Gimp", since it's a much better image editor than either of the other programs.
I'd also suggest removing / uninstalling the Windows live photo thing, since it's not needed.
Hiya 3DAGE
Yeah the live bit comes from Facebook and Youtube etc uploading functions built in and being part of Windows Live Essentials which includes their Mail software. Though you can't uninstall it directly you can uninstall Windows Live Essentials and reinstall deselecting the vairous accessories that are not wanted
But if mal takes Jad's advice then it won't effect then it wouldn't cause a probelm.
I never thought I would be giving so many Win7 Tips when I stated doing the DS tips. ;-)
