Trying to load the following texture for Cover Up:

And getting an error that the following file is not found:


/Runtime/Textures/Meipex/M_Dicktalicious/Genitalia_v3/Dicktator/Pumping Pole Palette/GoldenGlow/GoldenGlow_Base_Color_CU.jpg


 


Thanks.

While the presets are there for Pumping Pole Pallette in Cover up, the textures aren't included, so the first question would be do you have Pumping Pole Pallette installed.


If you do then the next step would be searching for the file and then compare where it is installed vs where the file says it should be. Sometimes path errors can be as little of a difference as a space somewhere in the path where it shouldn't be. (I know of at least one case I've seen personally where the zip extraction program was adding a space to the file after the file extension, and sure enough it was enough to throw off the path in Daz Studio)

Yes, I have Pumping Pole Pallette.

The problem is the DSF file is looking for "GoldenGlow_Base_Color_CU.jpg" but if you look at the Texture folder those textures are actually called "CU_GoldenGlow..."

(This is not my first rodeo. I have been using Studio since 2006.)

In fact there are several instances where the DSF files reference a file that is not there.

All you have to do is download the ZIP from 'rotica and open up the paths. I'm using 7zip but WinRAR will work. Even Windows Explorer has the ability to open ZIPs up as folders.

You know you don't have to be a dick about it. I was trying to help.


 


You have the answer either rename the errant file yourself or whatever

Wasn't trying to be a dick and I appreciate the help but me renaming the files isn't going to help the next customer who is going to have the exact same problem as I have.
