Failure to import into ZBrush

I'm trying to import a character into zbrush using goz. After zbrush opens, there is no character loaded. I've cleared the cache, recently downloaded and installed goz, and running ZBrush 4R4 (I think). What do I need to do to complete the import?
Thanks

    You mean you can't use the mouse to draw the item onto the canvas? Or are you expecting it to be already on the ZBrush canvas?

    Exactly which versions of DS and ZBrush are you using? Have you, in ZBrush, tried reconnecting the link to DS - Preferences>GoZ>Path to DAZStudio4?

    I have tried reconnecting. Daz is 4.5.0.114 pro 64-bit.ZBrush 4R4.

    Figure out what the problem was. My ZBrush was corrupted. Thanks Richard Haseltine, though.

    Thrasher, How did you determine Zbrush was corrupted? I'm having the same problem. I also have the newest versions of all products and plugins.

    Thanks

    I had imported my person as an obj file, and several of the tools were not working the way they were supposed to. I deleted Z-Brush and reinstalled it, and everything works fine.

    The only issue I'm having with the updated bridge from the last beta / rc of DAZ Studio is that the bridge takes FOREVER to invoke, load and allow me to draw the imported figure. Used to be instantaneous! At least I can still do my work. Hope it all gets sorted out for ya!

    So I reinstalled Zbrush, reset my GoZ connections, and restarted then it still didn't fix anything UNTIL I shutdown the laptop, drove home, and started it back up. It is working correctly now.

    It's funny, everyone is afraid of updating to DAZ Studio 4.5 due to perceived possible issues with crashing (I have had very little problems) but I have ZBrush and am actually chicken to update it for fear of screwing up the bridge *chuckle*

    I'm running DAZ 4.5 and Zbrush 4R4. I haven't had any problems with either, other than the one reinstall.
