it seems like SOMEBODY must have answered this question already SOMEWHERE, but if so, I can't find it! Daz 4.5 refuses to import Poser Pro 2010 figures, saying that it can't find them because the libraries weren't set up correctly. Okay, great-- then how SHOULD they be set up?? All help appreciated! :)

Did you add the Poser Content folder to Studio as a content folder?

EDIT:  I just did it in Studio 4.0 and it seems to work fine...

Well, that's exactly what I'm having problems with... here's the question I have going right now in another forum.

Me:

I'm downloading all of the files for Vicky 4.2 pro pack. Per SmithMicro's page of instructions on the subject, they're all going in the "Vicky 4.2" folder I created inside the Poser runtime library. I also marked them as running in Poser each time (again, that's what SM said to do.) They all show up in Poser 2010, yay. BUT... the big question is, how do I also get them to show up and be usable in Daz (4.5)? Do I need to somehow link to that Poser folder within Daz? Do I need to download it all again into a Daz location, too? (I'll do it if I have to...)  Somebody must have done this before, and I'm sure it's answered somewhere, but I really couldn't find it. All help much appreciated. :)

AlanaDale:Just make that runtime known to DS

Press F2, go to Content Library --> Content Directory Manager

and add to Poser formats (just the top level, the one above "runtime" in Poser)

Me:

I'm probably NOT doing this the right way... but I added the  Poser folder that was top level. (Programs-- Smith Micro-- Poser 2010.) Is that the right way to do it when everything is in the Vicky 4.2 folder I created in Runtime, though? I closed and restarted Daz, but I couldn't get anything to show up under actors, wardrobe, and props. Does it work anything like Poser (where it would show up in a different library folder at the top level?)

(there's probably a better way to quote all that)

So maybe the underlying problem is that I can't seem to find or identify the right content folder??

You would add whatever folder you installed Victoria into to the Studio library; the procedure you posted above looks correct...
