I have tried both ways - start from memorized (base) pose -> timeline and just timeline without start from mem...
Same result, just not quite so dramatic without base pose

Also tried changing the stiffness - same result

Turned off everything I could (all the way down to the EYELASHES!) and still same result.

I do thank you all for the suggestions.

Maybe I just need to try a different dress. Oh well.
Yeah, in that case the only other thing I can think of is self collisions or collisions in general maybe? That's unfortunate, but there are plenty of red dresses out there. Hopefully those work better for you.

Hi, guys. My lashes issue is still not fixed. I followed your steps: proper file location but the issue lies it's missing the lashes the moment I load the model: both Victoria and Asha (the model I wish to render). Help.

I didn't follow your previous Problems... but I have one question:
Do you go and install your downloaded DAZ Studio Models through the "DAZ Install Manager" or put everything in your "My DAZ 3D Library" User Folder? All "IM00xxxxxx.zip" Files should be installed through the DAZ Install Manager! Additional "Template" Files must be put manually in your User Files Folder - it should already contain a "Templates" Folder.
Only Downloaded Files without the "IMxxxxxxx.zip" Files must be all put manually in your My DAZ 3D Library Folder.
If you fail to put the necessary Files in the correct Folder, you'll end up with a mess you seem to have with your DAZ Studio and missing/failed loaded Files for Models.
Also it can be confusing because DAZ stores Files in different locations on your Drive... I put everything I need to install manually in my "C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library" Folder.
My guess is, if you mix up DAZ Files into to many different Folder, it fill mess up your loading up of DAZ Studio and you get these kind of errors you're facing.

EDIT:
Oh, I forgot - the location for the DAZ Install Manager .zip files should be in "C:\Users\Public\Documents\DAZ 3D\InstallManager\Downloads" - there put your "IM000xxxxxxx.zip files in and run the DAZ Install Manager.

Follow up to my previous replay:
For your Asha Model follow these steps:
Open your downloaded Model File - I guess it's "Asha G3FV7.rar" with WinRAR (or 7-zip). It should show you something like this:
as1.jpg
In there double-click on the first shown .zip File "Anagord_AshaG3FV7_1of2_199399.zip" - it should open another instance of WinRAR...
as2.jpg
Put (drag and drop) all shown Folder directly into your "C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library" Folder -
as5.jpg
Then go back to your first WinRAR Window with the 2 .zip Files and double-Click on the second one -it will again open a new instance/Window of WinRAR: as3.jpg
There again copy (drag and drop) the content / Folders into your "C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library" Folder:
as5.jpg
After that your Model should be all good and you can start up your DAZ Studio Program.
The manually installed Models/Assets are only shown in your "Content Library" Tab in DAZ Studio.
Files (Models/Assets) that are installed through the "DAZ Install Manager" are shown in your "Smart Content" Tab (and your Content Library).
I hope that helped you a bit. ;)

I followed your instructions concerning "C:\Users\Public\Documents\DAZ 3D\InstallManager\Downloads", still the issue persists. May I ask though, totally noobish question - do I have to create a 'Templates' folder given I don't see such?

Hi, thanks very much. One little problem plaguing me. I don't have the .rar file any longer. All I have is an already extracted version from 7 years ago. I hope you can share. Will still try the steps as instructed though.

I am unable to compress it to a winrar file. lol

In "C:\Users\Public\Documents\DAZ 3D\InstallManager\Downloads" is no such Folder!
The Main Folders DAZ Studio needs and reads are all in "C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library" - and if you follow my instructions for the Ashe Model, they will be created automatically with the copying - or are already there from the normal instillation through the DAZ Install Manager. ;)

You can re-download your Asha from ;)

EDIT:
And it is better to use WinRAR - it's free to use for private User. The build in de-compressor from within Windows is shi* - it sometimes messes up Files of an archive File so use either WinRAR of 7-zip (also free)

:cry: Waaa. I'm about to cry now. Followed step by step, still the issue persists. Tried the Install Manager download option, still none.

I'm sorry, I wonder why the zip file is only 25 MB while the Asha file is around almost 100 MB.

Well, you're doing it wrong, sorry.
The Asha Rar file doesn't belong in the Downloads Folder of the DAZ Install Manager.

You need to follow the Steps I posted about her Model - it needs to be installed manually!

You see all the "IM00xxx" Files - these where the Files that get installed by the DAZ Install Manager - you should also set him up to delete the Files after installing them - it saves Space on your Hard-drive and cleans up the Install Manager from all the previously installed Assets - LOL
