Hello,

I was wondering if someone cold help me with a problem I am having with DazStudio 4.9.1.30. I have installed the program and during the installation process I was asked to indicate the default directory where Daz content would be installed. I indicated it would be on an external drive. When I opened DazStudio and the Content panel it saw the content that I had installed but when I tried to load the content I got a message saying that the material files could not be found and it gave me no option to manually locate them. Why is this happening? All of the files for the product (which were purchased at another site and are Daz Studio only)have been manually installed into the content library as instructed. I have checked my preferences and DazStudio is supposed to be going to the proper directory for the content. The folders arrpear to be in the correct location but I keep getting this message: "Some assets needed to load the file were missing. The content my not work as expected." It then goes on to list a bunch of files in a Runtime textures folder that are in fact in that Runtime texture folder on the external drive. The only thing that it doesn't say is where it is looking for that Runtime texture folder. It should be looking on the external drive.

Any ideas what I can do to get things to work?

Thanks for any replies.
