in the main poser directory, the one that has the python paths... so i dont know. I think what I'll do is restart the pc, sometimes that resets things again, fingers crossed it might work then. I have no doubt that somehow it will all work out for all of us in the end.
I created a separate directory called Poser DSON and mapped to it in both PP2012 and DS4.5 (the latter for content creation reasons). The Genesis and Essentials are there. The script I installed to E:/PoserPro2012, the location of my Poser Pro 2012 install.
IS that in Program Files/Program Files (x86) on Vista or Windows 7? Content won't work properly there because Vista/Win7 protect those folders.
I've gone wrong somewhere now. I chose to let them install where they wanted and they all went to various DazStudio My Library folders.
I'm going to uninstall and try again.
I had this issue in the beginning but the DSON importer is fro Poser 9/Pro 2012, SR3. Any lower SR and that python script will come back with a callback error. Also, make sure that both Genesis Essentials installation files are installed. I got that from reading the help wiki.

It is W7, so the main folder for the python is in the programs files, but the content is installed in the documents folders, where the other content is. It's where I got all the other poser and daz figures have. What is odd is that it says it's loaded and when you go in the material folders it says it's there,. when i add the dragon or the clothing, it even shows all the proper jpgs, but still nothing is showing. I got PoserPro2012, and Poser9 and DS4.5 installed, but still it doesnt work. When i open the python in PP2012 to show me the log, it just says the normal stuff, loaded... and then done.... no error message or anything like that... so no idea what I am doing wrong, but nothing is showing up... grrrrr.....
I'm having problems installing Poser DSON on my Mac and Poser Pro 2012.
- First of all, the 64bit installer didn't work in my Mac (OS 10.8.2). As is been a problem with many of DAZ installers.
- So, I tried to do the install with my older mac, but since it was 32bit, the 64bit installer didn't work.
- then I downloaded the 32bit installer, which worked nicely on my older mac, and brought it to my new mac
- I re-installed Poser Pro 2012 and SR3
(Somewhere in the instructions it was said, that maybe you should able PoserPro 2012 to accept 32bit stuff. But I didn't find any such option during installers. Nor there is nothing in the Preferences.)
- first I tried creating a "Runtime Genesis" directory and installed it there, doesn't work.
- then I installed it to Poser Pro 2012 directory. Still no help.
- I removed the "Runtimes Genesis" directory. No help.
-I've restarted my machine.
This seemed so interesting of opportunity. But what an earth should I do now? Is the Mac support for DAZ products really working???
I have Poser Pro 2012 and the very latest sp3.1. Still working on it when I'm not busy pulling out the hair etc.

Ditto. I no longer get the callback error but I get invisible assets when I load them.

The developers tell me that both sets of files need to be loaded.
If they are installed in the same directory that's the easiest, then make sure that directory is mapped.
If you installed both sets of files in different directories, make sure they are both mapped inside Poser.
Hope this helps.
yay, finally got it to work. :)
Now I just need to figure out how to add more usuable content and morphs to the runtime, that should be fun....

Both sets of what files? You mean the cr2 assets and the script files?
Could you specify exactly which files you are referring to installing here?
These are the files I installed:
14812_GenesisStarterEssentialsPoserCF_1.6_dpc.exe
14812_GenesisStarterEssentials_1.6_trx.exe
DSON_Importer_for_Poser_1.0.0.9_Win64.exe
Since most with Poser have external runtimes, where should each of these get installed to?
Which folders need to be mapped as runtimes in Poser?

Step 3 - What Else do I Need?
In order to use the converted Companion Files in Poser, you will also need to install the updated Genesis Starter Essentials, as well as the Genesis Starter Essentials For Poser installers. You should get these files with your DSON Importer for Poser download. Be sure to download all your files.
All of those things are installed.
Have you added the library for "Runtime" and "My Library" for this both in poser? Even though the "My Library" stuff in poser will be empty, it needs to be there for it to work. That's why mine was playing up

Maybe that's it. I don't have a My Library, I have a runtime/libraries/character and all the DAZ items are in it with their cr2s and dufs.

I have a My Library in mine and still get the empty Genesis.
Maybe that's it. I don't have a My Library, I have a runtime/libraries/character and all the DAZ items are in it with their cr2s and dufs.
What I did was I created a complete new folder, then I added a runtime, and a My library folder in it. Then I installed all files in that folder, under the right subfolder of course "My Library" and "Runtime", then I copied the Python scribt into my main poser runtime, and it all worked. Now I am busy downloading all the old Genesis content again to start getting a good runtime in poser... such fun...
I had only the 2 Essential files loaded. Somehow while looking through the available downloads and picking what I Assumed were the 2 that I needed....
Well I just downloaded and installed the last one and it worked.
I still don't entirely get the Genesis thing in that I haven't figured out how to tweak expressions because of the limited adjustments available. (Huh? That is a heck of a sentence, what!)

The starter essentials install by default to Runtime. What's supposed to go in My Library?

There are two Genesis Starter Essensials, one of them has the Poser part to it, the other one has not Poser in the name. The one that hasnt got poser in the name goes into the My Library. You could unzip them all to the destop and that should give you a better idea as well. but custom install to those directories worked for me. So yes the one that doesnt have poser in the file name, is the one to be going to the My Library folder
In DAZ Studio you select the head on the figure to see the list of expressions. I would assume it is the same in poser. Select the head, then see the options for morphs/expressions etc.
OH.
So if I already have DS4.5 installed, I'm going to end up with two copies of every Genesis Starter Bundle Asset, one in my DS libraries and one in the Poser DSON directory. All this time I was thinking the core essentials were covered because I already had them in DS4.5.
That's the part I was missing. I'll try that.
That's what I did and it worked. so worth trying that, let me know how you get on. :)
Hi everyone, exactly as mentioned by the admin, for who had a problem of DSON not working or nothing loaded in scene when you double-click Genesis:
You need to add paths of both "GenesisStarterEssentials_PoserCF_1.6" & the "directory of your DAZ content" to your Poser library.
I mean, add the directory where you installed starter pack_poserCF to your library , and also add the content folder of your DAZ (not important if it's a custom directory on any partation of your HDD" just add it to your library (you will only access the "runtime inside content directory of Daz" from your poser library but for now,when you load genesis,it will show-up in your scene)
Now when you add genesis to your scene, it will show-up and you can use exactly just as any Poser figure.
For my case, I had all these for DSON to work :
--Poser with sr3 update,,
--DS 4.5.1.6 "available here" ,thanks for daz for offering us PRO version serial for free this time (only animate 2 needs purchace"
http://www.daz3d.com/shop/daz-studio-4-pro
--with downloads of DS 4.5.1.6 you will find "14812_GenesisStarterEssentials_1.6_trx" , DAZ says you can use trx1.4 but I downloaded 1.6 to guarantee latest updates if needed
--and of course DSON 1.0.0.9
I think of modification of some of the directories inside DAZ main content folder to access it from inside Poser library (folders like people can go inside runtime/libraries " because Poser can't read folders outside of Runtime,,,,,,,,why I do this? cause we can load genesis and all its hair/cloth ,poses (not only the starter bundle but also all other genesis content" inside Poser.
This is why I'm ecited about DSON cause we will have Genesis inside poser (that's great) and we will benefit from Poser renders for genesis characters "Big cheers" .
Okei,
I noticed there was a SR3.1 update installer, to Poser Pro 2012. From yesterday. Installed it, but it didn't help...
Hi, I have sr3 not sr3.1 but it works with me, if you have a problem of DSON script not working at all, then you need to have the latest DAZ 4.5.1.6 and Genesis starter trx1.6 available for free in the store.
If you have a problem that Genesis doesn't appear in your scene after you double click it, then read my post before yours, I wish this helps.
In DAZ Studio you select the head on the figure to see the list of expressions. I would assume it is the same in poser. Select the head, then see the options for morphs/expressions etc.
D'oh! That's what I get for having these drive by sessions in Daz and Poser. I AM going to get to the point where I can spend HOURS in the programs.
Thanks!
That's what I did and it worked. so worth trying that, let me know how you get on. :)
You should be able to install the updated core files to My Library (or whatever you use). There's no need to have both the new and the previous files, and it may confuse things if you do. I replaced my previous content with the updated files, put the Poser companion files in the same folder, and pointed Poser to it - that seems to be working.
