"Hmann-MaleSCap" isn't a DAZ file. That sounds like a skullcap to go with a particular hair model from Harvey Mann. You can lots of his very well regarded hair in the MarketPlaces. I didn't actually mean to reinstall Mike into your Runtime again (and certainly not to reinstall Poser... I can understand why you might be confused if you are moving and everything is in disorder!). Just click on the Vise installer icon in the Mike folder and instead of installing it into the Runtime (what is usually called "easy install") do a "custom install" or "extract" or whatever it is called with your installation. DAZ has changed the installer at least 4 times and the terminology has changed a bit. Also there are probably differences between PC and Mac versions of the installers. In any case just extract all the files into a temporary folder on your desktop, or someplace you can find it. Open the temp folder and you should find a readme and batch of folders called "geometry", "libraries", "textures", which might be in a proper folder hierarchy. The typical DAZ readme says nothing worthwhile about how to use the product or get it to work or anything, but it does list the files and where they should go. For your missing transmap, look in the textures folder (first and obvious place). That should give you the file, with a name, and as a jpg you can check it to be sure that it is right. Once you have a name, you can use your computer's search tools to discover where it is lurking. You should get 2 results: one where the DAZ installer put it, and the other in your temp folder. I never was able to get D|S to work on either my PC or Mac so gave up on it last year. So someone else will have to help your find it in that application. But once you find it in Poser, you should have the file name... hmm... you might have 3 results to the search if you also installed Mike in D|S. HTH, (and don't panic) Carolly
