Hi, When I try to load the Shell on either of these I get an error message as in the attached. I've tried downloading and reinstalling a few times but still no joy.


Any advice appreciated thanks


Sorry about the pics, not sure how to upload here. Novice

The textures can't be found, so the runtime folder hasn't been properly installed. You may try to search for one of the files in your folders, and then check if the relative path is exactly the one of your screenshots (no runtime/runtime for example).


Or you may install with DAZ Install Manager in order to avod issues (instructions are in the pdf in the Documentation folder)

Thanks for the prompt reply. I did a search on my whole hard drive for the fist file but not anywhere, pic attached. I have also attached a couple of pics of the relevant runtime/textures path, and again none of the .jpg's mentioned in the message.

Thanks again for your help

OK, don't know how to attach the photos on this reply, wait one! :)

Hi gribbley, just a quick observation, you appear to have searched for a file called m_dicktator_bump.jpg. The file is actually called m_dicktator_bm.jpg. Maybe try again with the bm not the bump.

The file lists you are showing are for Dicktalicious not Dicktator. Can you confirm you have folders called M_Dicktator and  and M_Futalicious in your Runtime-Textures-Meipex folder?

Hi haruchai


I have tried the search ending in bm.jpg but still no luck.


I understand what you mean by the name but I definitely bought Dicktator, I don't know why it's renamed itself Dicktalicious when installing. I searched for a Dicktalicious on the site but there is no such thing, only Futalicious, which I have also bought.


I attach pics to illustrate


Many thanks for your input :)

Hi guys

Humble pie time, schoolboy error from me.
I bought the original Dicktator many years ago and then bought Dicktator V3 a year or so ago and both are in my Library. For some inexplicable reason I have been trying to load only the original and only just decided to try the V3 and it works perfectly!. Guess I need to delete the original :(
Pic attached for clarity

Many thanks for all your help

Hi gribbley,

Never any doubt you bought them I was just trying to go back to basics and find out why the files were missing starting with whether the base folders were there.

Anyway, glad you got it sorted out :)
