Missing G9 Conversion Morphs

Have a character that I have worked on for some time and had converted to G9 from G8. I have loaded her recently, a month or so ago maybe, to apply her to a scene.

Never had any issues.

Now I get an error that the G9 conversion morphs are missing. What loads after the error messages is clearly missing the various shapes I have applied to her.

I attached a file which shows the message I am getting.

Are they truly missing or some kind of disconnect going on?

Any ideas or solutions? I updated to the recent release. Don't remember if this is the first time I loaded her since that or not.

Don't really have any other G9 figures with converted morphs to try and see if I get the same issue.

DJ.

    Do a serach on disc for one of the files and make sure it is in a content directory that Daz Studio knows about - it's possible, though I am not certain, that the converted morphs can go to a different content directory from the base and if something then breaks the link (e.g. Windows sassigns a different drive letter) then they wouldn't be found.

    Thanks for the help Richard. All seems good now, but, not sure why.

    I followed your advice and searched for the two missing G9 conversion files it wanted, one for body and one for head.

    The missing file message that it would display wouldn't show the complete path so not sure from that where it was actually looking for them to be.

    In looking around DAZ, under Preferences, I found the Content Tab and at the bottom, Directory Management. I figured if I couldn't find out where it was looking for them, I would add where they actually were. So, I added the path under Daz Studio Formats and added it also under a New Content Set I put in.

    I shut DAZ down and restarted. When I loaded her in, obviously something was very broken. It couldn't find her at all, her outfit, nothing. All I got were items related to Rigging I guess. So I undid what I added to the Content Directory Manager.

    I shut down DAZ and restarted again. I load her in and no missing files. She appears as she always has.
    I won't argue with the result, but not sure why the problem started and what I did to fix it.

    DJ.
