Every time I use certain products or mats that I bought from this site in DAZ Studio, I keep getting a message that the program can't find the texture file.  Even when the program is looking in the right folder and the file is RIGHT THERE, it still gives me that message.  And even after I locate the texture file, the program still keeps giving me that message every time I use the thing again.  Why does the program not remember where the file is after I point it out the first time?  This is rediculous!

try checking if there is a SPACE in the name that should not be there ?

like : texture 12girl A  and it had to be :texture12girl A ..

Or check that the files are not LOCKED .. it can be that the file "obj" or material file

is LOCKED and so it can't save the information you give it by pointing to the right folder..

Maybe load and save the texture files to photoshop or such and just resave them "be sure to make a copy before you do so ..

Many ways lead to a solution ..but first we got to find the problem

Make sure the folder containing that runtime is listed in Edit>Preferences>Directories as both a "D|S (native) format" AND a "Poser (import) format" content folder.

If you want it to remember you will need to either edit the file, to correct whatever error is causing this, or save as a scene or preset from DS and use that instead of the original file.

^ That fixed it.  Thanks.
