Don't you need assloads of various addons/bundles/premade stuff for that or can you actually make them from scratch and is the program itself free?
Yeah you need assets, but you can download a lot of them from here as well as other places. Yes, the program is free.

saves can only use morphs they can find. It will still load, but you'll get errors and your char might look different.
To provide some additional clarification, the character will change shape if the asset morph is no longer available. Upon next saving the character, any morphs that fail to load will no longer be saved with the character. Hence you will no longer get error messages when you open the character, however they will look different as some of the original morphs will be missing.

I've never tried that, but I'd guess that even if it doesn't find it, you could simply reapply it, since it will be loaded as new if it's not found.
I think DAZ will look for them in the old location; but there's no problem if it doesn't find them there because when it gives you the error it allows you to indicate its new location. Then when you save the file you will remember it.

I'm not sure, no.Are you sure about this? I had this for textures, but not for morphs.
Perhaps, as you say, the option to locate the file not found is only for textures, but with morphs or other daz files it only shows you an error when not finding them without the possibility of indicating the new location.
OK, so I'm sure someone, somewhere has asked this before, but I cannot seem to find it, so here goes...
I found some models I'd like to use in Daz (

), but when I attempt to import them, they are twisted and unusable. I've got Blender 2.8 to open them, but I can't import them, even after trying to fix them through Blender. Could someone please help?I linked it, though the file from the site is free as well. He's got a few interesting ones there.

According to the information on the Renderhub page, that model comes with a .dae format option. That format can be directly imported into DAZ. From the menu click on File and them Import. The advantage of the dae format is that it "should" include the textures. Of course real world results don't always live up to the promises.
From the dae file, I get a load of Armature listings, odd skeletons too. The fbx file too, just in a different manner. The obj file only gives a translucent skin that does nothing and needs to be set to 5000% to be visible, and even then not at the right size. I can translate the base figure in Blender, but it imports without bones, so I'm not sure what to do.
Tried to import in hexagon and send to Daz with no luck (when it's not outright crashing), got the model kinda corret but no bones .

Yes, save only the material, and when you import it where you want, hold down the Crtl key (or it could be Shift, I don't remember exactly now); doing that you will get a dialog box where you can select if you want the images (textures) or not.
