Just spend a day banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why my assets won't transfer from Daz, but then it just dawned on me that I've been using the CC3+ Transformer and maybe I should give the CC3 Transformer option a try - and guess what - worked straight out of the box.

So, my conclusion is that the CC3+ Transformer for Michael 4 (at least - that's what the characters I was working with this weekend use) is flat-out broken. Can't load an unmodified Michael 4 (zero tweaks to the base avatar), at all.
