Step 2

Create content folder.   I use ProPose8.1

Under that create subfolder     I use Real People

Under that create subfolder     I use Genesis 8.1 Female           

Launch DS4.16 or whatever you are using, must support G8.1.  Add   ProPose8.1 content library  to your DAZ Studio Formats 

 

Load  Lily Base

 

Navigate to Genesis 8.1 Female in your ProPose8.1 and With Lily Base selected in the scene tab go to 

File---Save As---Support Asset---Figure/Prop Asset

Give a file name    I called mine "Lily Test" and click Save

This comes up

 

If your save options don't match what you see, make it match and Click Accept

Bunch of stuff happens, and a data folder is created with a bunch of stuff in it

 

clear the scene and load the saved figure 

Important step Do This  Adjust rigging to shape      accept the next popup 

 

then do this     Memorize Figure

 

then finally  save as character preset I call mine Lily Base as it's called in the scene tab

 

I close DazStudio4.16

I launch DS4.10, and load up Lily Base.  Play with the dials and pose controls, Lily Base should respond properly, al least she does for me.  I save another Character preset and just name her Lily.  Clear the scene and load up Lily,  re-check  the Dials and controls.  This is the Lily that I'll use going forward. 

And now I'll explain why I use DS4.10

 I tried every version of Studio from the most recent 4.16 version down to version 4.10.

DazStudio 4.10 is the only version that merges properly the anatomical elements.  this is true for all the Genesis figures G1 to G8.1 male or female.  Why is that important?  Because in Carrara, when you add the genital figure onto your character the UV's of the gens are lost making that part of the figure useless.  In daz Studio it all blends in perfectly, but not everyone wants to render or animate in Daz Studio.  Other people have come up with creative solutions to overcome this problem, and this is my kick at the can.  but even if you don't do nudes, the figure that you have right now is alot better in that you have all or most of the pose controls available depending on what you've added in morph packs.  If anyone out there has a better way, I'm all ears.  

Another thing I also create a Runtime ---Textures folder in my ProPose8.1 content Library and copy all the relevent testures 

Step 3 will be the merging of the Anatomical Elements  to Lily Base
