Product Updates: DIM Zips starting July 2013
Updated May 25 2014
Jul-Dec 2013 start here: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/viewreply/388937/
Jan-Jun 2014 start here: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/viewreply/537352/
NOTES:
1) This list only includes non-Genesis/Genesis2F items. For Genesis/G2F updates see Jay_NOLA's thread here: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/3885/
2) I only started tracking these in July 2013, so zips may have been updated prior to that date.
3) Even if a zip hasn't been updated after its initial release in DIM, it may include updates from the older installers.
4) It usually takes 24-72 hours for an update to show up in DIM, and sometimes longer. The dates I list are the dates reported by DIM as the "Installer Date", which is the date the zip was packaged, not when it first went live on the server.
5) Updates often include removal of Poser 4 versions, Weblinks, and readme's, and conversion of .rsr's to .png's. I have not listed these changes in the reasons for the update.
6) I have broken down the primary reason for an update into 5 categories:
-- Content Changes: These are fixes to the actual content and are usually of interest to everyone -- if they only apply to certain applications I note that information. If they also include metadata fixes or path changes (beyond what is needed just because of changed files) I note that as well.
-- Metadata Only: If the changes are of interest ONLY to those who use metadata/Smart Content, I note them here.
-- Path Changes: If the paths have changed but the old versions work just as well, I note them here. For example, some of Jack Tomalin's railroad cars were initially in the Architecture folder, and were later updated to be in Vehicles.
-- No Substantive Change: Some changes have no effect on how the product works or appears inside your application, such as file names or descriptions of the zips, or extra files accidentally included in the zips.

Daedalus Peasant is kind of funny - in my product library I have two entries
http://www.daz3d.com/downloader/customer/files/#prod_5227
and
http://www.daz3d.com/downloader/customer/files/#prod_3983
The 5227 is the active one, but only offers one file:
Daedalus Peasant A3
3983 is inactive, but offers two files:
Daedalus Peasant A3 Ps
Daedalus Peasant A3 DS
???????????????
I bought it in the now extinct Build-a-Bundle I ... calling that one up I have two links for each included product, one active, one inactive.
Edited to add: THANK YOU!
5227 is the updated one, with both .dsa and .duf presets in the Poser runtime. 3983 is the old version, with the DS version file structure messed up. However, 3983 has .ds presets, so if you use DS2 you'll want to keep those files. They may remove them.
Thank you for clearing that up!
