Does this package need to follow the same pathway as Reby Sky for V4 for it also runs off of 4.2 morphs for V4 and could someone please give me the exact path because Reby Sky knocked M4 and V4 out of smart content and are now only accessible from Poser Format Library .
Thank you for your time

needs to be installed in the same runtime as V4
Reby Sky doesn't have any Metadata that I'm aware of, although I haven't updated it for some time.
Stephanie 4 gets installed into the same Runtime folder as V4, or it wont work, as it is a morph of V4 like all the other Gen 4 female shapes (A4, SF4 etc)
According to my DIM downloads, Stephanie 4 doesn't have any Metadata either, and I have it installed into the Runtime folder in My DAZ 3D Library along with V4. Stephanie does not appear in Smart Content.
Can the person and their morphs go with the V4 folder or do I dump the whole bundle poses clothes and all that's in there as well?
I don't know how I got Miss B's photo on my comment but here it is for any who wish to see :)
I usually install items manually, so this may not work for you, but below is a screenshot of how I usually set things up. Mind you, this is just a suggestion as you may prefer to do things differently.
That said, I haven't reinstalled Steph4 on this newer laptop (thanks for reminding me), but looking at the way I set up V4 in my Runtime might give you some ideas. Basically, I have 4 subfolders for V4, namely: Characters, Clothing, Morphs and Poses. The Morphs and Poses folders are the base morphs and poses that come with the character, not those that come with add-on characters and pose sets you might purchase from other vendors. Those poses and morphs I place in the Runtime > Libraries> Pose and Runtime > Libraries >Morphs folders, respectively. So following this method I would have a Runtime > Libraries > Character > S4 folder, separate from my V4 folder.
Again, this is just a suggestion. It's how I like to organize my Runtime, but I know others have their own preferred methods of grouping their content, so others may suggest different methods.
Ignore this, since the 2 threads were merged.
Thank you very much for your answer and as I could probably use a little organization this helpful. I was curious if the powerloader should be with Stephanie 4 as well though sorry my bad should have asked that earlier
That must've happened when one of the forum admins merged the two threads into one.
Meanwhile, I tried replying to your PM and it won't go through. It keeps telling me one or more of the Screen Names is invalid. I even came here to the forum and clicked on the PM button displayed with your post, but it still didn't work. Not sure why.
Anyway, as far as the Power Loader(s) for Steph 4, to tell the truth, I've never used any of the Power Loaders that DAZ supplies with their older characters. I don't believe they are really necessary.
Well we appreciate your time and effort to help and it has been a great help. Thanks again.
