now i am running into the issue where it gives me errors on clothing. a pop up window states that the "clothing item name".obj does not exist when i try and add clothing and then gives an violation error. at the bottom it has the preparing clothing still active but nothing happened afterward. i closed the script and it crashed my daz. i wonder if it has issues with certain clothing. i used this on my character: Dewdrop dress.

urg. First, be sure that both the DAZ and VWD are truly not still running after a quirky crash/termination like this - taskviewer->end-process.

second, if you are still experimenting, you can clear the VWD files without risk of removing a sim result worth saving. Open DAZ, load your scene, start VWD, but before importing things, clear the relic working files in VWD using the Utilities tab 'Delete all "Exchange" files' button, then do your import. This will clear all side-effects. I also 'Restore default parameters' in that same tab when things get wonky.

Dewdrop (DAZ?) is a beautiful dress - perfect for this kind of tool. It has some details that might make it interesting to import. I'd like to see a video of Gérald working this outfit - just for the approach/thinking.

Yes - the outfit does matter. I believe the 'does not exit' message is the result of the processing/import taking longer than the program expects - very non-deterministic. This was one of the last fixes done before release, and it still may not have nabbed the 'bug'. I will bounce this to Gérald asap, and see if we can get a workaround identified.

dewdrop should not be too much for VWD to handle in any context. Stay tuned on this one.

My only thought is to be sure not much else is going on with your system when you do the import and see if that helps. Maybe Gérald can correct me here with a better answer.

More to come,
