DIM install issue

Figured I would get a faster reply here.

I am having issues installing the Latex Shaders, and the G2 Head and Body morphs. Everything else I bought yesterday installed correctly except for these 3 items (actually, the latex shaders I had an issue with installing when they came out.) They say they installed yet when you look for the Latex Shaders they are not in the smart content, nor in the products in the content libary (the name will show, just nothing else. ) Even tried a manual dl and install and got zip.

Same thing for the morphs. They show installed, yet, after i load G2 I make sure she is selected, go over to Param and nothing. Selected "All" and even selected unhide and coming up nothing.

Suggestions?

    when you look for the Latex Shaders they are not in the smart content, nor in the products in the content libary (the name will show, just nothing else. )

    Strictly speaking, "Products" isn't really a Content Library view, it's dependent on the CMS working properly, just like the Smart Content tab itself, search, autofit, etc. Sounds like the metadata might be glitched, although someone else should have noticed this by now if that's so. Other problems are CMS failure or database corruption, but if that happens, you wouldn't see anything at all in Smart Content or Products.

    The actual Content Library sections are under "DAZ Studio Formats" and "Poser Formats" — this shows the actual contents of your physical hard disk, in the places where they actually exist. Every other option for "content" view isn't looking at your content, it's looking at a database which categorises your content and presents you with a sorted and/or filtered list.

    Can you see the shaders under "DAZ Studio Formats"? Should be in the "Shader Presets" folder. Can't help with the morphs, I'm afraid, I don't use G2.

    Due to a None set way to save Morphs, as far as I know, some will show in Parameters and some might not. Always check the shaping pane if a morphs set does not show in both.

    EDIT: Was was just informed that was fixed, if not showing in Parameters then there is a error some how.
