Instalation question about the Bank Heist Bundle

I have a quick installation question about the Bank Heist Bundle. If I install the Bank Heist Bundle installer (It looks like it includes the bank set and props), does that mean I don't have to install the individual set and props installers? From what I can tell from the ReadMe file list, the files are duplicated but placed in different directories, which doesn't make sense to me unless they aren't duplicates. I'm confused.

Why would you want to use a different installer? There is no such thing as a "bundle installer"; a bundle consists of individual items and those individual items get assigned to your account as soon as you buy the bundle. After you get the items (heist environment, heist props, morphing masks, Goran HD and Ajisai) they can be installed using the methods available for them. Usually the Daz Install Manager ("DIM") or that new central stuff.
So basically... you buy a bundle, open whatever installer you normally use (DIM or Central) and then install all the newly available stuff.
Fair warning with bundles though: always check the prices of the individual items as well because sometimes the individual items combined can cost less than the bundle.
I understand that what you said applies in most cases. That's what I'm used to as well, but then this happens:
I installed all 3. They do not seem identical to me. One has a "clean" bank setup. Another has the "heist" setup.
It looks like Daz has succeded in messing that up.
A quick look in the filelists looks like the items will be doubled.
My advice is to put a ticket in.
The bundle is the best choice; it includes both the enviro and props, but also the preloads for clean and heist versions, which aren't included with the separate ones.
This is what I was thinking, but it's strange that the other 2 installers include most of the same content but install it into different directories. I made a ticket so maybe they will update the installers eventually.
