Upgraded to 1.7 and now totally stuck!  All my images using PWShaders render black.  I've tried changing the shading parameters without success.  Can't regress to 1.5, because it was deinstalled by the 1.7 installation and isn't available on the website any more.  Wary of reinstalling PWShaders or anything else till I know what is going on.  Any ideas, please?

Meantime a warning to PWShaders users - maintain a regression path if you upgrade!

Have you redownloaded your shader pack and reinstalled it? DAZ upgraded the rendering engine for the new version and as with previous versions when that happened the shaders are not interchangeable between the versions.

Yes! All times that Studio are updated YOU need to re download your plugins so it can work in the new version.

Thank you - all fixed now!  I had tried reloading PW from a saved file and that didn't work - now I have redone the download and understand what's going on.  Thank you again.
