thanks Stan, I knew you would know :)

 

Problem: I don't want to use Genesis, but I want to use Genesis clothes cause that's the main things as far as clothes dfaz is putting out.

 

So I can use xdresser to convert if I manage to export a cr2 from daz studio, but I don't use daz studio ... so I thought I would use Car 8.5 and see what I got and immediately ran into problems...

 

I ended up installing studio so I could get the cms, then was told by a helpful person that DIm would install cms anyways, then it installed my practice cloths on my c drive

then they worked fine in Carrara

and it wasn't by accident after asking that I found a little greyed out button that let me change the installation directory with DIM they have hidden it very well I think  ... so I have reinstalled one item of clothing to see what will happen - havn't had a chance to look yet

 

the export CR2 thing didn't work from studio because styudio didn't automagically find the original directories and the tutorial video just assumes it will and gives you no idea of what directoried they are supposed to actually contain ....

 

not insurmountable but I need to look for motre tuts on it or just ask I guess'

the cross dresser min tut suggests it is simple but alas it is not
