Octane Render plugin for DAZ Studio DOES NOT LOAD TEXTURES

This is very frustrating.... I have used this before in Poser and it loads the materials, but sometimes you have to tweak the props textures in poser for it to come out right.

but now, in the DAZ version it doesn't load at all... i have tried everything, including selecting the figure and loading it through the automatic function; It will even show the file loaded in the diffuse tab but when i open the view plane to render it either loads the gray poop version (without textures) or nothing at all (blank screen). I have a gtx660ti so i have no issues with that, and i have again used this in poser with no friggin issue.. WTF!!!!

I am soooo pissed right now. Why doesn't the friggin program just load the textures as its loaded on the character in DAZ>? Why do i have to tinker with the settings just to get the textures that are already on my character and F with it until the friggin plugin realizes that "OH! WOW, YOU WANTED YOUR CHARACTER WITH ACTUAL SKIN!!!???" why even build a program that is a plug in, and you have to manually plug-in the textures and they half work, if anything not at all......

is it because the textures are iray? what?

Now all my saved scenes that i have rendered in iRay will not work because the program won recognize simple texture files attached to the items in the scene??? WTF!!!

I bought this hoping that it would be just as good as i have used it in poser for a long while but now.....

Hi artistic33,
currently the DAZ plugin is still in beta and there are some development issues, anyway Otoy is working for solving. Here you can find the updated list of the issues and some workaround:
viewtopic.php?f=44&t=47686&start=330#p248996
Please ask in that section about your iRay issue, maybe some expert user can give you some hints:
DAZ Studio
In general is better to ask in the proper plugin section, it's more easy to find the proper answer and help ;)
