Clueless on how to use Michael 8.1 Veins Morph (can't find it...)

Hello, all.

On Michael 8.1's product page ( https://www.daz3d.com/michael-8-1 ), the "What's Included and Features" section lists "Michael 8.1 Veins Morph" and "Veins Normal Map Preset". Yet, nowhere could I find any reference to it in the software (Parameters, Surfaces, Shaping, Anatomy, Materials...) nor a Map for it in the actual folders. I am completely clueless on how I am supposed to use this feature.

I've even used the DIM to reinstall Michael 8.1

Please help!

Thanks, Uri.

Running DAZ Studio 4.15 Pro on Windows 10

btw, the forum page shows "1 comment" to my topic. I can't see any though, hmmm...

    Yeah, that's the forum ghosty ;-)

    I don't have Michael8.1 yet ... but morphs normally are listed, when the root figure is selected, somewhere on the Parameters Tab. If you use the search bar at the top of that tab "vein" it should appear.

    For the mat preset: places to check are {in the Content Library} it would be likely in a folder under the relevant Character folder, Michael 8.1, Mats ... OR under the main figure's material folder. 2 places to check.

    The file list does not list a Veins morph

    Veins are usually done through HD morphs and the HD add-on for Michael 8.1 does list an HD Vein morph.

    Catherine3678ab, thanks, I looked everywhere. It's not there. : (

    Thank you! This explains the absence of that feature. I've filed a ticket with Daz Support, asking why is it mentioned as one on the product's promotional page...

    Thanks, jestmart. I have both Michael 8.1 and Michael 8.1 HD installed, still no such morph to be found... : (
