    What is the ful error text from the log Help > Troubleshooting > View Log File?

    If you in DIM right-click show installed files, is the file then listed as installed?

    This figure is designed for Poser 9 and newer, and it is weightmapped for Poser. It behaves well in Poser but is not really suitable for Daz Studio, as the weightmapping is not the same. This makes the bends look bad.

    I opened it in Daz Studio, and DS complained about the weightmapping file, but it found the texture that I see is missing for you. But really, I would judge that this figure is next to unusable in Daz Studio.

    Edited to add that I bought the figure several years ago, at Renderosity.

    Yes, check the zip - a number of these transfers had lost their maps so I wouldn't be unduly surprised if the case was the same here (but do check for updates first, we did get those previously reported fixed)

    First thanks for your replies. I check the zip and the missing files are lost and i check for updates but it not exist.

    In log file the error is: "2024-10-07 12:16:26.860 [INFO] :: Could not find weight map: 1 on line 26798 in C:/DAZ 3D/My Daz 3D Library/Runtime/Libraries/Character/S1M_!Scarlet/!Scarlet.cr2"

    I attach txt file with the error.

    The weight maps errors suggest that the Scarlet figure uses poser weight mapping (which wouldn't surprise me since she's listed as a figure for Poser 9+).

    If that's the case it won't work properly in DS at all, and shouldn't be listed as compatible with DS.

     

    The other two should be compatible since they list DS materials.

    I have also bought S1M Sixus Media items with this problem. I installed the files through the daz installer. Then I opened the Scarlet character in Poser 13 and there were no textures. I opened up Daz Studio and tried again. Daz Studio couldn't find the missing textures either.

    I opened the mc6 files in notepad and saw the redirection to where the texture files are supposed to be but they are not there.

    Then I manually downloaded the zip file from my Product Library on the Daz website. I opened up the zip file and, sure enough, the textures are not in there. Then I went to the same product (Scarlet) on the Renderosity site and looked at the list of files which is supposed to be included. It lists all the ones I got but also lists these ones which are missing from the Daz zip file:

    This problem affects a lot of Sixus media Scarlet files which I've bought on Daz store. It affects Scarlet, Celestial Avenger, Demonia, Modern Outlaws 2, Outlanders Stalker, School Girl and Void Prime Ranger. These are the ones I've bought. The same problem may affect other products that I don't know about. I downloaded and checked the zip file from Daz a few minutes ago so I'm sure there hasn't been an update yet.

    I emailed Sixus1 Media but no reply so far.

    Well today there was an update to the Scarlet zip file but it still doesn't contain the textures. It's crazy! The new zip file for Scarlet is slightly bigger but still doesn't contain the textures! I'm talking about the jpg texture files. They should be in a the textures folder at: runtime - textures - S1M - Scarlet because that's the address that Daz Studio and/or Poser will look for them because that's the location which is written in the materials file.

    It seems that no-one else is reading this thread so perhaps I should open a different discussion? I don't know what's going on. This is a very strange situation.
