Quote - I wish I could help, but I dont have this set. I've used other Billy T items in Daz Studio, so that shouldn't be the issue especially if the other character items work.
Not trying to speak to the obvious here, but these are a couple of things I would try..

1. make sure you are using V3 and not another Victoria
2. zero the V3 figure pose OR make sure she hasn't been moved before adding the shoes, depends on which one you've been doing  before, lol.
   3 select V3 and go to "conform to" and select V3
3. If all else fails, redownload and reinstall, maybe something got corrupted along the way.

the textures should be loaded from the pose folder, I think, or whatever folder that holds the material for the folders, I've got my runtimes set up weird, so yours may be different, lol.

maybe one of these will be of some help.

**just went and read the "readme" for that item, so another bit of advice, you might also want to make sure you are choosing V3 object and not one for another girl :) since they each seem to have their own set of shoe geometry

Thanks Cim! :)
Unfortunately, I have tried all the above and I am completely positive I am selecting the right model. It'd be easier if it were a matter of them not fitting right but in this case, it's as if the whole v3 file doesn't exist for them and so I think they are corrupted. But I will keep trying. Thanks for the advice!
