Hello,
I made my own texture for v4 bodysuit but I can't seem to save the textures from daz3d to a zip folder? Can someone please help me with this problem

If you made textures they are in Jpg or another image format. Only a Material File is saved from DAZ Studio once the files are used on the Surfaces. To share them you will need all the files, texture image files and a material file saved in a proper Folder format.
Also, one small gotcha about where you put the texture files and where you save the materials file to. The textures should be in a folder inside your /Runtime/Textures/ folder, and the materials file should be saved into one of your already existing content locations. (The easiest way is to use the save function of your Content Library tab and find or create a suitable folder in there.)
If you do this, the texture file links will be saved as relative paths, and will "just work" on anyone's computer if they have properly set up content folders. If you don't, then the file links will specify exactly where the texture files are on your computer — in a folder that very probably won't exist on anyone else's computer.
(A historical note: for a long time, pretty nearly everyone here has got into the bad habit of saying "the textures" when they mean "materials presets", and it does sometimes cause a bit of confusion when they do actually mean the texture image files.)
