Issue with creating Character Morphs
Added 2023-03-02 19:51:28 +0000 UTCAt the moment I am not able to take commissions for Character morph due to an accidental error I have caused with someones G8M characters and I'm struggling to find a fix for it. some how I caused an error to pop up even when just loading the Base G8M figure and I can not find the file the error is asking for. I also have no Idea how to fix it. I feel like if I dont fix the issue it will happen to everyone who gets a morph after him. if anyone has any idea how to fix the issue please let me know. I really have no Idea what I did to cause it in the first place. Once the issue is fixed, I can start taking Character commissions again. as far as I know Outfits are still ok and arent causing problems

2023-03-04 14:30:03 +0000 UTCi have never been able to fathom how that thing works. i bought it , tried to make just a base G8M and failed. i sort of gave up after a day of struggles.

2023-03-03 23:26:35 +0000 UTCwhat you need to do is zero your figure and resave it that should bring it back to its original form, as a note I am sure that members here ,like myself have 100's of characters. So I strongly suggest that you get a program from Daz called Turbo Loader. I also suggest you purchase it because there are always updates and it's really handy especially for G8F . Anyway best to all.

2023-03-03 15:50:18 +0000 UTCThank you all for giving me ideas of what to look for Shinteo actually helped me find the file I was looking for and I used it to fix the error, now just need to figure out how to set Base G8M back to the Default for loading

2023-03-03 15:48:33 +0000 UTCok, so the error we were having is kinda fixed. He doesn't get the error for that anymore. now any G8M character loaded in has my character morph loaded by Default

2023-03-03 15:44:31 +0000 UTCThat was the error I was getting on my base G8M. Just followed the ZoneGFX link and deleted the erroneous morph and all works great now. Thanks for the tip.

2023-03-03 02:38:49 +0000 UTCI think I found the file that was missing so I added it to the zip. Just waiting to hear back from the person to see if it fixed the problem

2023-03-03 00:44:01 +0000 UTCHere is a quick fix for what I do with bad morphs, first unzip the file by itself not to your daz directory look in the data folder. Find the morph that was intended for the character. Keep the original morph but copy it paste it and rename it to whatever is missing file is or what its asking for. Then load it into the main directory. Daz should be able to find it then.

2023-03-02 22:49:08 +0000 UTCOki, the path should be this: E:\DAZ Custome Items\My Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 8\Male\Morphs\DAZ 3D\Body And the file is aaaaa.dsf If same error as I mentioned earlier. See discussion here: https://zonegfx.com/forums/topic/anyone-else-getting-missing-files-error-when-they-load-a-genesis-8-male/

2023-03-02 21:37:39 +0000 UTCI am guessing the error is like this: /data/ziadhoops/Product/2/Genesis8Male.dsf One thing to note is it when it display the error it omits a part of the path. The path in full would be something like this E:\DAZ Store\data\DAZ 3D. Your path will look different, but the key thing is there is a folder called DAZ 3D in the data folder, and there in are the morphs.

2023-03-02 21:28:49 +0000 UTCI know that when there are naming convention issues, this can happen. I have had this issue with several characters purchased from Daz. Could your created morph be named the same as another morph on their system? There is really minimal info provided to be able to really help. It would mostly be brainstorming all possible issues. However, the naming issue is the first thing I would check. What is the name of the morph? I can search my data directory and see if anything comes up for me.
