Something like this should be made a permanent FAQ on this site, especially since all of Meipes items (Breastacular, Dicktator, Fender Blender, Golden Palace etc) are exclusive to this site.
Here is what I do whenever I get a new character, whether it's one from this site DAZ, Rendo or somewhere else.
I follow these steps when using Meipe's stuff, in this case Breastacular, Golden Palace and Fender Blender:
1. I load the character and make any morph modifications (anyone familiar with my work knows my models undergo major plastic surgery)
2. Make any skin modifications like adding wet skin shaders if required (It usually is) or whatever else I intend to do.
a. This includes makeup if used, lipstick, eye color changes, eyebrows (if not using fibermesh eyebrows) etc
b. DO NOT ADD GEO SHELLS at this point including any wet skin geo shells, I do not use them anyway, I use shaders for my wet skin look, primarily 'Wet and Tan Skins' by V3Digitimes, but DO NOT ADD GEO SHELLS at this stage is my point.
3. Add Breastacular to the model
4. Run the Copy the Materials script
5. Run the Adjust to Rigging script also provided.
a. This is then where I personally take the time to add my nipple and areola morphs, but not required for the Skin Shader issue which is what this is for.
6. Save the model, name it etc
7. Add Golden Palace
a. Add the Geo Shell, breastacular will turn slightly whitish when you do, ignore this for now.
b. Add GP Labia Majora Geo Shell from the Pussy Wizard add-on if you have it and make any color changes provided on the Labia Majora and Labia Minora, If you don't have it ignore this step.
i. Breastacular will turn completely white at this stage, ignore this for now.
c. If you own the Stereo Love add-on, there is an anus material in that add on that has multiple variations for skin tone and anus shape. I recommend making these modifications at this time.
8. Add Fender Blender
a. Run the Copy Materials Script for Fender Blender, but it will stay white like Breastacular ignore this and go to step 9
9. Find the Shell Fix v2 script provided in Fender Blender, Breastacular or Golden Palace if you have the Storming the Palace add-on.
a. Run the Shell Fix v2 on the Golden Palace Geo Shells, when you do both Breastacular and Fender Blender should both turn normal flesh toned.
10. If you don't have Fender Blender then skip step 8 and go to step 9.
11. Save your work
You should now have a fully grafted and material copied character ready to work with.
Any new Geo Shells added beyond this point that are visible in the render will now also make Breastacular 'White'. Simple run the Shell Fix Script from step 9 on the new Geo Shell, this could include a Geo Shell for Underwear like Vyktoria likes to do, a Wet Skin Geo Shell like Simon WM sells, or anything like that.
If you make a mistake re-load the character from your last save and try again!
I hope this helps and humply request that this be made a sicky or something.
