That's the perfect answer with pictures and all! :)
Thanks!
Your welcome, glad i could help.
Totally random, but that F-14-like fantasy jet is... Impressive. Daz needs more military vehicles.
The plane is the YF-35 Warthog from Schell's Armour Works, it also converts in to a mech.
Out of curiosity, how do the water planes (plain and spume) look from underneath? Is it possible to use them for a 'Jaws'-like scene of swimmers' legs or a boat's hull being viewed from beneath the water? Or are they textured to only look natural when being seen from above?
Thanks Kinich, for both, posting those awesome renders and helping viluvulu out by it ;)
@ Xenomorphine
Tbh. it`s not really meant for that use, I am sure there would be better solutions for such a scene.
I`ll pm you an ugly test-render so you can decide on your own.
Purchased the Rock today, have all the other environments also.
Problem in DAZ Studio, have installed twice.
Both times according to manifest, have files.
Cannot find the preloaded scenes as with the others.
No read me or documentation or props or lighting or cameras etc.
Copied the runtime folder straight in to daz no problem.
In Daz Studio cannot find even the mention of the rock in any category.
Help
@ bicc39
Are you browsing the content library or smart content?
In the content library you should find everything in the same place like the other environments.
Eg. Poser Formats/My Library/Props/FM_easyEnvironments/TheRock
If you use smart content you could try reloading metadata.
To do that, go to the content library tab, click the little icon above your tabs for options, click Content DB Maintenance, and choose "re-import metadata". If you can find "TheRock" there it would be enought o re-import only that.
Is it just me, or does The Rock not show up in the DIM? I bought three of the sets: Greenlands and Road to Hell showed up immediately in the DIM and have been downloaded, but I had to go to my Product Library to find The Rock. Thought it might just be my impatience, but I just checked the DIM again and still no show after over an hour.
It shows in DIM for me, but I got it directly from QA, so that doesn`t have to mean anything.
I mailed Daz and pointed to this thread, so I hope they`ll keep an eye on it. Of course, it`s sunday. ;)
My dim is better than yours.. Nananana.
Just kidding, it showed up for me!
Have your other products, top of the world, Road to Hell,Mountain Trail, etc.
All loaded and worked correctly, all appear as you mention.
The Rock has no appearance anywhere, search does not find anything
One question, in the listing there is a preloaded scene mentioned.
If you could give me the name and file extension, I might be able to do a workaround.
As it stands, the product installs but does not appear anywhere.
Thank you.
( don't know if this means anything but when file was unzipped i,n the contents folder there was only one
Runtime folder.
Follow up
After spending more time than I would like to admit, am filing this product under
"mistake", just not worth further effort to make work.
Sometimes you buy something and it just does not work out.
The other items in this series worked well for me and I had a lot of fun with them.
If I add them all up and include this in the the total, the average price is not that much.
Wish you a lot of luck with this and other products in the future.
(Would like to suggest for future editions you follow the templates of the previous successful
items.
You might also wish to compare the contents of the dowload items for this with the others)
All the best!
I am sorry you have so much trouble with it.
I don`t think anything changed on my part though, it`s the same file-formats and structure like on all the other Easy Environment sets.
Did you try finding it in the content library, or only through search and smart content?
The main preload is named FMEE_TheRock .
Quick update on the Install Manager issue.
Daz mailed me saying there is indeed a small issue that may cause it to not show up in DIM for some users.
They try to fix it asap.

Did search nothing, no mention in props, lighting,etc, your other products appear perfectly.
To be clear, when i downloaded the product the first time and unzipped it the file consisted of the usual
two parts Contents, Manifest. The Content file contained only one Runtime.
This Runtime was then copied intact into DAZ Studio (My Library).
In the program there is no mention made of anything to do with this product, all the others are there.
I then used the download program from DAZ to handle it stiil no mention.
I copied the entire runtime elsewhere, opened it up and matched the content of it against the files that
were installed, they matched.
As I said, too much time for too little,not blaming anyone you or DAZ, not trying for a refund, doesn't really matter.
But one question, if the product contains a preloaded scene, what is it's name and what is it's file extension.
If I can open it, I can do a workaround provided the skydome loads
In DIM I did Sow File List... for it

As you see, the installer places then somewhere very wrong
Sounds like the install didn't take for some reason - here's my one in the Props folder inside Runtime (where the Poser files go)...
Here`s a screenshot of the files you should have under runtime/libraries/props...
If they are there I can`t think of any reason why it wouldn`t show in the Content tab of DS.
Anyway, if you can`t get it to work I`d say just return it, no reason to keep something that doesn`t work for you.
lol, so many screenshots trying to help out ;)
@Totte
I think the path (for the ones you made bold) look correct. That`s just the metadata, afaik it doesnt have to be in the very same directory as the other files.
Oki, but if they cant find it (maybe metadata is wrong). I haven't had time to play with it yet so I can't really say anything ;-)
usually they all are in Poser_Runtime:Props:FM_EasyEnvironments, and this is there this one seems to be too.
One question, if the product contains a preloaded scene, what is it's name and what is it's file extension.
If I can open it, I can do a workaround provided the skydome loads
Where the Poser files go....I am installing to DAZ????
Files have been copied to Runtime in DAZ My Library???
Would this help?:
Scene & Skybox:
FMEE_TheRock.pp2
FMEE_TheRock.dsa
Skybox:
FMEE_SB_TR.pp2
FMEE_SB_TR.dsa
EDIT
My files are in:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library\Runtime\Libraries\Props\FM_EasyEnvironments\TheRock
Refund is not a problem, uninstalling that which does not appear is.
Runtime files have been copied, which means if product does not work
no uninstall, which means manually deleting about 90 files and hoping the
files that are deleted apply to this product and not one that works.
Where the Poser files go....I am installing to DAZ????
Files have been copied to Runtime in DAZ My Library???Aha, you could be looking in the wrong place - It is DAZ install, but the files for this product go to the Poser-compatible props folder.
My Documents/DAZ 3D/Studio/My Library/Runtime/libraries/props/FM_EasyEnvironments/TheRock
but if you let DIM install to its default location, it would be as viluvulu stated above.
Thank you, have same files same location, but does not open.
Again, thank you for your time, appreciate it.

but if you let DIM install to its default location, it would be as viluvulu stated above.
Installed in both, which will make getting rid of it completely, bigger problem.
Thank you
so you cannot see it in the Content tab, or are you relying on metadata?
Final note to Jabba, Flipmode, Totte, Viluvulu.
Labor day weekend, thank you very very much for your efforts to help.
Truly appreciate it.
Do not wish to waste anymore of your time with this.
My problem.
If you all have it, obviously not a product malfunction.
Will delete all the files manually and put it down to a lesson learned.
Again I thank you.
(Note to anyone with the same problem who has stumbled across this....
lots of luck)
