Make sure you are going to https://www.daz3d.com

If you installed 4.12 with DIM, install 4.15 with DIM, too. DIM will remember the installation paths you used last time. You can check the DIM settings to verify your installation paths, in case you are unsure. Many people have had their configuration messed up by trying Daz Central after being DIM users, because Daz Central used its own default path configuration. I don't know if any improvements to that situation were ever implemented. 

Update: I had to go to Daz Central and Select Install 4.14 (???) which now seems to have successfully installed 4.15 (!).

At a first quick check everything on Drive D seems to be recognised and working.

Is that an issue with any script-blocking/anti-adware on your browser, perhaps?

It's pretty straightforward, at least to me.

"Converted files directory"

Top box selects the output directory.

Below that opens the output directory selected in the top box

The central area shows the poses to be converted.

The "Add individual pose files" opens a file explorer to allow you to select individual poses to convert.

The "Add pose directory" allows you to batch convert an(or multiple) folders containing poses, in one button push.

"Remove selected": if you select individual files, or groups of files(using ctrl+Left click), which have an orange highlight(by default) you can remove them, leaving the rest for conversion.

"Clear all" clears the entire list of poses to convert.

"convert files" starts the process. Push this and go have a coffee, it may take a while, depending on the number of files selected and the single thread speed of your computer.

"Create metadata" produces a suppport file for smart content. if it's unchecked metadata files won't be created.

If you click on the question mark in the lower left corner and then click on the individual items, it'll provide you the same information i just wrote.

If you have a more specific question, i'll be lurking around.

Something else to consider, is that it's not the character, but the clothing, hair, etc. on the character. Try turing off the smoothing modifer on fitted to items and see if that makes a difference.

As to your questions.

There are two primary solutions to your problem regarding loading of morph dials.

1. uninstall/reinstall products as needed, relaoding the corresponding character after each change accordingly.

This is the least efficient option, as it requires either the use of DIM, Connect or central, or the manual removal of assets.

2. Split directories.

As opposed to the uninstall/reinstall option, simply seperating the various assets into their own directories and mapping and unmapping, in CDM(content directory manager) as required  is a bit easier.

It does, however, require manual installation of products, as most automated installation methods can only install to a single directory at a time.

Hi Daz friends,

Rather than download daz central and daz studio directly to my computer, I would like to download it to an external hard drive. Is there anything special about downloading it to an external hard drive? Or do I just choose the path and let the program do the rest? 

Thanks for your help.

"The promos show side-side and up-down morphs for the individual areolae and nipples, but the "what's included" section doesn't list them like the G8F version does and I want to make sure they're actually part of the package."

My mistake..I forgot to swap out the morph list on the main promo. Thanks for spotting this. Had female list layer on instead of the male..... I will get that updated asap.

Now...Because of the Male nipple geometry position it was very hard to include these morphs and make it work. The female geometry nipple position was more central meaning there was enough room to move it around. The males, not so much.....The minute you moved that area it caused mesh pinching. So yeah.... The male version does not have areola and nipple positional movement. I can give it another go, but ye I didn't have much success the first time around.

Poo, oh well, thank you for letting me know! I'll still be picking it up, it looks like a great product regardless. That does explain why I can't find anything for positioning no matter where I look, though.

If you ever do figure out how to make it work at some point, maybe if the Genesis 8 overhaul makes it easier somehow, I'll be right at the front of the line to buy whatever you come up with!

New Studio 5 and Genesis 8.2 are now definitely near in a matter of months.

Really?

All recent betas have accelerated preparations for qt engine update; art director talks about improved G8, new store engine, and recent sell-out of G8 bundles (including new ones like Tara) or 72% discounts on entire Daz catalog in plain daily promotion point to imminent bada-boom.
I'm very excited about all the new development, and there is only one thing that can break my love story with Daz permanently.
Daz Central. I'm afraid (how Daz Central has pushed aggressively) that it will be the only way of an installment in a new studio. I hope I'm dead wrong about that.

Daz central is the same code as DIM with a new UI, it doesn't address the needs of more advanced users and can't install certain types of content. I don't think you need worry about Daz Central only installation.

please can somone upload these files it just will not work i have tried everything and wasted soo much time i just want it to work...
i have the steam version of blender 2.91 i have attempted the fix suggested in this post and uninstalled and reinstalled with daz central and DIM and it never drops that zip it does create a folder called  BLENDER_VERSION in which it drops a DTB folder but it cannot be installed with install addons.

Yes, I definitely feel there has been a drop in quality, especially regarding metadata. I would estimate that about 30% of the purchases I've made recently have had metadata errors (and, as we all know, Daz generally refuses to fix these errors). I wonder if it has something to do with the Daz Central rollout (I use DIM)?

I set up a new system, and wish I could find the old work-horse DIM Install manager utility?

I'm not liking this new 'DAZ Central', as it seems to run in 'trust me' mode, squirreling stuff away where it's hard to find. Since I pay cash for DAZ content, I prefer to download and archive (manually) the actual ZIP files in a personal backed up 'catalog' folder structure.

I have Daz Central open and it's still only showing v1.5 for the Daz to Maya Bridge. Anyone else seeing this issue?

I'll try a re-install and report back. I did move my DIM folder settings to D: drive, but that shouldn't matter for these plugins which are all local to C: drive.

Hey all, I recently switched my 2070 Super out for an RTX 3090 and I have the most up to date studio drivers. Knowing that the version of Daz I was using (4.12 not beta) did not offer support for this card, I opened Daz central and clicked update to 4.14. Upon opening Daz 4.14 after the install was finished, it froze for about 10 seconds before crashing with no error message. I tried opening it several more times to only experience the same result. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling 2 times and I restarted my PC in between attempts. Additionally, before I did anything I copied the entirety of the "My Daz3D Library" folder into my auxiliary drive to ensure I could just paste it in if things went wrong (has worked before but I'm not sure this is a good idea). What should I do? I'm trying to not lose any of the progress I've made using Daz, do I need to do a full wipe? My scene files are saved on my auxiliary drive as well as the "My Daz3D Library" folder as mentioned previously. I am not opposed to downloading the beta for 4.12 so Daz can not only work but actually support my card. Thank you for your time.

I gotta admit, for an app that has an online sign in component I'm surprised that it is this hard to get Daz installed the way you want it. If there is an online login then it should literally replicate on any device I log into my exact user experience. C'mon Daz! Work on this!

The connection isn't meant to be two way - it gets data from your account (products owned, and any products you choose to install) but doesn't send anything but the data requests to Daz.

Are you using Daz Central or Install Manager for the basic installation? The former has fewer configuration options and won't be suitable for more advanced users. You can put your serial numbers on the clipboard by right-click on the entry in Install Manager.

As it should be.

Microsoft should pay attention to that, considering they charge for the software then inflict stuff on us.

I just purchased [Messy Pixie Hair] this character. I ran into several issues. First, after installing via DAZ central, there's a folder for it, but there's no character (.DUF) file displayed. There's the materials folders beneath the character file, but no character per se in the folder. If I browse to the folder, then I do see a .DUF, and clicking on it, it loads. But that's where the big problems occur...

As I start to set it up, my computer bogs down bigtime. Just trying to turn the frame in Perspective View, it takes 2-3 minutes to complete a turn of as little as 10 degrees or so. In fact, [i]anything[/i] takes minutes to accomplish. Looking at Task Manager, I see that DAZ Studio is using over 5 Gig or memory for this character. In Studio 4.14, my other figures use about 1.2-1.6 Gig. Obviously, the extra 4 Gig are causing the slowdown.

Does anyone else see this, or does anyone have any ideas how to fix it? The figure is unusable like this, and I'd really like to be able to use it, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

EDIT: I found that the character start isn't in the Daisy 8 folder, but in the Character folder. Loading it there makes it a much smaller 840 meg file. I didn't figure Thorne would make a pig of a file- I've been using his characters since Lilo Bebe, 15 years ago. (And I still use it!)

Edit Edit: Nope. NOT solved. Over time, it climbs right back up to 5 or 6 Gig. Only thing I added was the Messy Pixie Hair prop. And I see another issue: Once you close DAZ, it doesn't release the memory for quite a while. I'm looking at a task Manager with DAZ shut down, but Task Manager showing that it's still using iver 4.9 Gig of memory. Only way to get rid of it is to End Task, or wait 20 minutes until it finally releasess the resources.  Really weird.

EDIT EDIT EDIT: I've narrowed it down to the Messy Pixie Hair. There's all sorts of things it does, like if you delete it and re-load it, it never releases the memory, and continues to add more. I tried 3 instances of loading. deleting, and re-loading, and by the 3rd one, I was up to 9 Gig or resources tied up in DAZ studio, and it was almost completely unresponsive. I also tried it on other characters, same behavior for all.

I took screen shots and saved 'em, and opened up a ticket, attaching the screenshots so DAZ could see the problem. let's see what happens. I've attached the one where it was up t0 9 Gig.

Hi

I just did a PC reinstall, and need to download my models again. 

I want to use Daz Central, as it seems to be the new way of doing this.

But I can't find a download all button, or maybe a "check all" and then download.

I've givin up clicking install one-by-one in my asset list.  

So i've decided to go into daz studio, and mark every availble asset there, and click install.
