If you already have a way of installing content, that works for you, I would not recommend chancing DAZ Central. At all.

I am using M1 Mac Mini with Big Sur OS. 

After installing Daz Central, I am not able to log in. 

Is there any solution. 

Thanks.

Both applications use separate manifest files to track whjat they have isntalled, and uninstalling the installer doesn't remove current cotnent. I think that you deleted the manifests while clearing up, so the applications no longer have a record of having installed the content initially - and when they do a fersh install they will see that the files are already present and assume that they are used by something else, so they will make a note not to uninstall them if you then uninstall the products (in the InstallManagerFileRegister.json file in the root of the content directory). It would have been better to uninstall through the DIM/Daz Central - it would also be a good diea to use soemthing other than the C: drive for content if possible.

Hi. When recently loading a large asset into DAZ from Daz Central, my computer's C drive memory was exhaausted though i thought I'd cleared enough space. I stopped the download, emptied more space and then resumed. The asset did not completely load. I then uninstalled DAZ and DIM and reinstalled, believing that items would be uninstalled whiich would clear memory and I could selectively reinmstall the assets I needed. The assets were uninstalled in DAZ and show as ready to download in DIM but remain in the C Drive. Reinstalling reduces memory. I still have a nearly full C Drive with only a fraction of my DAZ assets installed. 3rd party content backed up in storage loaded fine.

Merde, c'était français.... maintenant je vais devoir parler français... J'espère que je ne vais pas devenir un mime ou un de ces chefs prétentieux avec un rat sous son chapeau... Merci Frank0314... J'espère que tu es heureux...

Perhaps even mimes are simply zombies and being manipulated by pretentious rats in their hats.  Not unimaginable.

C'est génial! Je n'y avais jamais pensé... ça expliquerait le grand nombre de mimes sauvages dans Central Park... 

Perhaps with all those park rats, the zombie mimes under their control might be able to be herded in teams into invisible hamster wheel generators and forced to make virtual electricity.

Quel travail!  Quelle pensée monumentale... cela rendra l'apocalypse zombie tellement plus acceptable et respectueuse de l'environnement! 
Vous avez peut-être sauvé le monde... ou au moins trouvé une bonne utilisation de tous ces mimes maudits...

Damn it... Frank0314...  you can't make me speak French anymore... it's too civilized a language for me... I'm going back to American!

ROFL, sorry!

I wouldn't recommend Daz Connect - there seems to be way to many problem with it.

I am using DIM and beside having good controle over where stuff goes, you can filtre and install as you like, here including just let it install everything without any inputs from you *)

*) I think some of the products using scripts might need an accept to install, but those can likely not be installed through Connect at all.

 

I'd rather use DIM. That one I know how to set it up and let it rip from the last time I had to download everything (Ugh). Daz Central (whatever) just seems... pretty without much going for it. I don't want to manually download things when I go on buying sprees either. 

You can use DIM, it's still available and still works.

Note that the products that are working have a triangle in a broken circle icon at top-right, while the ones that are missing at least their thumbnail don't. The icon means that the item is isntalled through an external tool, its absence means installed through Daz Studio itself. The first thing I would try, if you are not aware of having done that, is right-click on those items and select Uninstall (so that DS no longer shows them as installed through Daz Studio). If a DIM/Daz central/manual install isn't then showing it's probably a pathing issue - DS doesn't know the folder that is being installed to.

Daz Connect is when you're installing from inside DS. Do you mean Daz Central?

Daz Central, sorry.

Edit: For batch install I would recommend using Install Manager.

We have sent in a query on the discount on the Spotlight item

The failed install sounds like a Connect issue (installing through Daz Studio). If you report this via a support ticket they should be able to fix it, in the meantime manual or Daz central/Install Manager should work (but you would need to uninstall the Connect version first).

 

Great all other Enterable's items have a PC+ discount between 77-79 % and this one has 66 % and is the spotlight item, couldn't be correct imo..

Yes, we have pointed this out but I don't know what, if anything, will be done.

Nope. Installed using DIM, as always.

I'm not putting in a support ticket, since I can fix it myself. This is just an FYI.

So using DIM I installed the most recent public build. It destroyed all my DS icon links and I cannot find the program. It appears to have self destructed!

I just checked my C:\Program Files\Daz3D\DazStudio4\ directory. There are some files in there but it eviscerted the program and the dlls. DAZStudio.exe is gone. Nowhere to be found.  Under my account where all my products are listed, there is no option for reinstalling Studio. Just Daz central. I do not want Daz central! How can I download studio and install it?

If you want to install it manual, go to "My Account" - Product Library . Filter to "DAZ Studio 4.X Pro". There use the download-link under "Manual" for your system.

Hi. I've just picked up the accelerator for ultra scenery and I have problems.

I have ultrascenery v1.3 installed and the Script version is 1.3.3.1

UI for accelerator and inside of daz plugins pane it says my accelerator version is 1.0.2.4

Everything is installed through Daz Central. The plugin worked without accelerator fine, now it runs through a few parts really fast and then hangs, usually at the creating instances stage or creating aspens instances or something like that. I have uninstalled , re installed through DC and then restarted computer and same issues.

I tried to look at the manual zip file from account product page but there is no .dll inside of the zip file to swap out in the 64bit/DAZ3D/DAZSTUDIO4/plugins folder.

Help cheers.

Uninstall everything UltraScenery related, and use DIM to install.
