No root found Sublime Vava Voom Hair colors

DefaultName

I'm having trouble with this product https://www.daz3d.com/sublime-hair-kit-for-dforce-vavavoom-hair ;

It doesn't work when I try selecting different nodes, the figure, cap, and the hair all don't work to apply to H.Materials. Here is the error log saying "no root found"

Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be appreciated.

It is because it is set for G8.1F. So if trying on G8F it will fail.

You can, if you want, change it in all the duf files from Genesis8_1 to Genesis 8, and Genesis81 to Genesis8.

Then it should work.

You can simply change the Node Name of G8F to G8.1F :

Select your G8F, go to menu: Edit > Figure > Scene Identification..., change Node Name from Genesis8Female to Genesis8_1Female. Then apply H.Material Presets while having your G8F figure selected or the Vava hair selected.

Then change Node Name back... when needed.

Thank you both very much, that solves my issue.

I basically just use a dev model 8.1 and change the hair through that, then fit it back when I need. Had no idea it was specifically wanting 8.1
