Using Older .ds files in DAZ 4.5

I have some older wardrobe files called "The Mage" which have a ".ds" extension I would like to use to clothe a wizard character I've created with Genesis. DAZ Studio 4.5 doesn't seem to be able to work with these files. They show up in the Content Library pane, but nothing I have tried so far will get them to actually load into the scene. I even tried loading the old Michael 3 character, which does load just fine, but the clothes still will not. Does anybody know if there is a way to use .ds files in version 4.5. Thanks so much,

Arnie

    Those sound like the material files and not the actual outfit. The outfit itself is probably in Poser Formats > Figures in the Content Library (not Smart Content) pane...

    Hi,

    Thanks for your help. After getting your reply and still not being able to find the content anywhere, I did a search on my computer for the .CR2 and .OBJ files, and found none. I then discovered that I had only installed the .ds exe file, and not the .dpc exe file. So you were right; I only had the texture files installed. After installing the rest of the files, everything works fine now. Thanks so much.

    Feeling like a dope,

    Arnie
