Lip sync and animation

Hi,

I'm looking for help resolving some problems I've been experiencing regarding Lip Sync animations. Normally, I use Poser but recently have been learning DAZ Studio. The DAZ program that offers lip synce is 32 bit 4.5. However, whenever I incorporate this feature, my program crashes. If I save the file and reopen it in 4.5 DAZ Studio, the lip sync files are not saved. They of course do not work in DAZ 4.6 or 4.5 64 bit. I just need help making my Genesis models talk. I purchased Talk Assistant 2 and had problems a couple weeks ago with the morphs not working. Then I purchased Mimic Live in hopes it would work in DAZ 4.6. I can't get help from the creator of Talk Assistant 2 or Mimic Live... can anybody help me get these models talking? I've spent over $60 on DAZ trying to resolve this issue in addition to the models and wardrobes I've purchased.

Frustrated.

Thanks,
Don

    DS 4.6 also has Lipsync in the 32Bit version all the 32Bit versions do. Lipsync is only a 32 bit plugin. I use DS4.6.2.118 32 bit without any problems for my lipsync.

    EDIT: My Mimic Live registered into DS4.6 just fine as well.

    Mimic Live comes in both 32 bit and 64 bit versions, and installs correctly on DS4.6.

    Make sure that you are downloading the correct version of Mimic Live, the latest version is 1.3.2.118, and the latest DAZ Studio version is
    4.6.2.118. As you can see, the last part matches the version of DAZ Studio.

    What problems are you having with Mimic Live, I have never used it before, but it worked first time for me?

    The delay in Mimic Live I have with the animation is just unusable. There are several sliders to adjust the animation; interval and delay, yet it can only capture about one second of audio and sync with the audio for the models I've tried; Genesis, Genesis2, Michael 4 & 6. Then the delay makes it lag so far behind, I can't sync it up. Do you have a link for DAZ 4.6 32 bit?

    Thanks,
    Don

    I do have the latest versions of both DAZ 4.6 and Mimic live you cite, however it just doesn't sync and even in the read-me you get after puchasing, they explain this. Also, you cannot import recorded audio, only capture live audio or play a file through your speakers and mic it. I could live with this however, cannot use the lagging synchronization.

    I've downloaded the 32 bit 4.6 DAZ Studio, installed and it is crashing worse than the 4.5 32bit version.... wondering if I may have a memory problem. My system is an Intel HP Envy with 12 GB or RAM (10.5 virtual memory) i5 Windows 8.1,

    Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    UPDATE - Hey, I just realized the 4.6 DAZ 32bit version saves the lip sync info when I reopen in both 4.6 32bit and 64bit and even though the 32bit crashes when rendering a frame, the 64 bit made it through rendering a single frame!

    Umm... VRAM is not RAM to DAZ Studio. That is your issue. You need real RAM sticks 2Gb is just not enough free ram. I can sycn the Vid and sound file in my Video editor so its not a issue to me.
