Install Manager question

3Diva3Diva Posts: 11,981

I have a bunch of Poser items listed on my Install Manager and it makes it hard to find the Daz Studio content I want to download. I don't want to download the Poser stuff because I don't use Poser and I don't want it taking up valuable hard drive space, so I ignore it and download the Daz Studio version of the items. Is there a way to "hide" the Poser items so they aren't clogging my window and making it hard for me to find the content I do want to download?

    Yes, you can deselect Poser files in the Download Filter.

    It's left hand right above the file listings.

    Although....if you have any really old products, sometimes it's worth checking to see if the Poser and the DS files are hte same size. A loooooong time ago, us DS users used to have download the Poser files, as the DS files only contained mats for them, not the actual geometry. So if you are about to download something quite old, and the DS file looks suspiciously small (kbs for an environment/prop), dbl the poser file. 

    It's been a looong time since they did it, so it'll depend on the age of the product you are downloading.

    Ah cool - thank you for the info! :) I do often buy older products, so I appreciate the heads up.

    If an item requires the Poser version for DS, the Poser version should be tagged to show up even if you only have DS selected in the download filters.
