    Only those characters with metaMixer add-ons will appear - they require special set-up, with additional morphs, it isn't soemthign that can be done automatically on the fly.

    What is the first screenshot showing?

    The second screenshot is showing the MetaMixer Toolkit product. The additional addons are not part of that product, they are separate products that can be used with the MetaMixer. You should see them in your Content Library if you look at People/Genesis 8 male/Shapes/MetaMixer/Characters. The PDF tutorial that comes with MetaMixer has a lot of critical information to help you use it.

    My message that you quoted answers both of those questions.

    I told you where to find the additional MetaMixer shaping presets in your Content Library pane under People/Genesis 8 male/Shapes/MetaMixer/Characters. You are looking at only ONE product in the Smart Content pane. Each addon for another character is a separate product. You cannot see them by looking only at one product at a time in Smart Content.

    Did you read the product PDF tutorial? That is the tutorial that shows you how to use the product. It goes step by step.

    I understand the question. You want to use all the MetaMixer addon characters that you purchased, not just the three samples that came with MetaMixer Toolkit. If you have installed the extra MetaMixer addon products, you will find those shapes in your Content Library pane under People/Genesis 8 male/Shapes/MetaMixer/Characters if you are working with G8M or People/Genesis 8 Female/Shapes/MetaMixer/Characters for G8F. All of the MetaMixer characters that you have purchased and installed will appear in one of those paths. If they don't, you probably have not installed them correctly. I use Daz Install Manager (DIM), not Daz Central, so I can't help you there. If you are still unsuccessful, you'd better submit a help request and see if customer service can assist you. I don't seem to be able to phrase an answer here that helps you.
