Product Information

  • Required Products: None

Do you have a large content library? Have you started to dread loading a Genesis 8 figure because it can take so long? Then the Turbo Loader for Genesis 8 and 8.1 is for you! Turbo Loader turbocharges Daz Studio for users with large content libraries. By disabling unneeded morphs for your Genesis 8 figures, see dramatic speed increases in loading scenes and figures, and even clearing scenes.

The first time that Daz Studio loads a Genesis 8 Female or Genesis 8 Male in a scene, Daz Studio searches your content directories for all the morphs used by that figure and creates properties to control them. With a large content library with lots of morphs, this operation can take a long time. However, for most scenes, you don't need all of those morphs.

The Turbo Loader scripts detect ALL morphs in your system for Genesis 8 Female or Male and organize them by product. Turbo Loader will work with morphs installed manually, by Daz Install Manager, or even by Daz Connect!

Disable all the morphs for a figure type (except some important products such as Genesis 8 Essentials). Then, quickly enable select morphs for the scene you want to create. You will be amazed at how much more responsive Daz Studio is!

Turbocharge the loading of figures* and scenes.

Finds morphs, properties, and aliases wherever they are located, even in multiple locations such as products installed with Daz Connect.

Organizes morphs by product, allowing you to easily enable and disable morphs to suit your current needs.

Create configurations to quickly and easily enable or disable sets of morphs before loading figures.

Products installed manually or with products like Content Wizard do not have morphs recognized by the Daz Studio database. They will be organized as unknown products with a name from their parent directory.

*This is very dependent on the number of morphs you have for a figure generation. In tests, we have seen speed increases from 6-17x faster!

Additional Details

Resolved Issues

  • 2024-10-10 Updated v1.6
    • Fixed RSTurboLoaderFunctions unit to handle Genesis 9 era morph files that reference morphs WITHOUT a path. Updated GetMorphsFromJSON function to handle Genesis 9 era output morphs that do NOT include the relative path anymore. Uses the file's relative path (i.e., the included morphs “should” be in the same directory) as that works for all tests conducted in 2024/09.
    • Fixed an infinite loop on some morph files by fixing the GetMorphsFromJSON function to not include current morph in list of morphs.
    • Added FindAllJSONPropertyMatches function override so that it can handle patterns
  • 2024-07-20 Updated Turbo Loader v1.5
    • Updated common RSTurboLoaderFunctions unit to support multiple folders necessary for Turbo Loader for Genesis 9

    • Added behavior to add a product name to the wAddFilteredProductName text box when the user double clicks on a product name in the morph list.

    • Updated data/RiverSoft Art/Common files for Turbo Loader Booster Utilities update
  • 2022-05-04 Updated
    • Changed how TL searches for morphs from inspecting a figure to scanning all content directories (use Scan for Morphs button).
    • Improved script startup performance by disabling the Turbo Loader cache, which did not give enough benefit in speed compared to the hit you take on starting the script.
    • Added Reset Content Directories button to reset all Daz Studio content directories for the figure type.
    • Added ability to filter Morph List based on file path.
    • Added Option to only filter Morph List when editing is finished.
