Help! Where does this error come from? I attached a screenshot.

Critical error: The "Michael 4" support folder could not be found?

Could it be that Windows 8.1 causes trouble?

PS: I already deinstalled and reinstalled via DIM the M4 stuff. Moreover, I did a maintainance for the database.

    Where did you install the M4 base?

    @fixmypcmike: Sorry for the delay.

    DIM automatically determined the location.

    M5 and M6 work fine though.

    The same issue appears with V4.

    The directory for DAZ stuff is "D:\DAZ Stuff\DAZ Content".

    I attached a screenshot.

    I had the same problem with the victoria version.

    After deinstalling and reinstalling it to the standard folder it worked.

    Hint: You can install the Michael resources to every folder you like. But the other Tools "PowerTools" and so on must be installed in the recommended standard folder.

    @cschnei: I deinstalled all DAZ stuff and also DS. Then I made DIM reinstall everything. The same error occurs.

    I think the PowerLoader is corrupt.

    I think you have to add D:/DAZ Stuff/DAZ Content under Poser Formats also as M4 and V4 are older figures. Hopefully this helps :-).

Hopefully this helps :-).Yes the DAZ Studio folder needs added as a Poser Format folder as well. the Gen4 figures are installed to the DAZ content but are Poser format. Here is MY setup that works ...

    Wonderful news, it's things like this that keep me doing the thing I do. Well, I do love to help if I can, but I really love to see the renders that people post when things work.

    I got the same problem today and found the solution reading your post... the power-loader was corrupt... I only needed to uninstall and re install it... Thank you for your help!

    Thank You so much I have been trying to figure that one out for days I too uninstalled and reinstalled every thing as that is what is recommended in the Daz files I read.. at the end it's a simple fix just add daz folder to Poser "Amazing" Thanks again.. God Bless!
