Looks like DAZ has changed the zip file name format:


IM00000085_millennium-woman-victoria-1.zip


Before, the name was just 038.zip.


Things are getting better...

    ...any news from the development front as to when PC .zip files will be available?


    I'd really like to get started with building the runtimes on the new rig but have no intention of doing so with the current .exe installers as they tend to have a mind of their own.

    Some items already are available in zip format, though it's puzzling that new releases still come as installers.

    Just when I thought DAZ had finally got it right with the most recent naming system. Any ideas what this one means...?

    Looks like "product code 085" and "Millennium Woman Victoria 1" to me?

    ...just noticed that as I was running some download install tests of older content through Norton.


    Looks like progress is being made.

    It's the "IM" bit I was wondering about — usually in past DAZ naming systems, a letter sequence at the beginning means something.

    Index Number, but Buddles was doing the typing? Or it could just be a contraction of IteM.

    I suspect that it's tied to the Mac installers. Those files where the Mac installer fails under Apple's Grand Scheme are getting updated. Otherwise, no change for the moment.
