I've used Poser for years.  Haven't gotten into D|S because I animate and its IK tool is useless, but I'd like to make some still images.

My Studio computer will be a 64-bit Win10 with NVidia.  The internet is not allowed to touch it.  Sneakernet only.  I'm searching and seeking directions on how to download my DAZ code and content (figures from Millennium2 to Genesis8) on a different computer and use it on my don't-touch computer.  Can't find any.  Forum FAQ's are dead links.  First, the D|S download page won't offer the 64-bit Windows install package to my online computer.  Second, the confusing array of support tools aren't helping.  DAZ Connect?  Install Manager?  Content Manager?  DAZ Central?  All of them?  Which one does what is an opaque mishmash of function overlap on their product pages.  Besides, all of them are fully packed with terms like "automatically" and "log in to your account".  Where is the page that tells me how to install, set up, and use Studio+content on a computer that is actually offline... not merely logged out?  Thanks.

Hallelujah!

Bonjour Leana,

J'ai acheté le bundle avec d'autres produits, et seul le bundle n'apparait pas dans Daz Central

Does anyone have ANY IDEA how on earth you install this if your Max/Daz apps are offline?

 

There is a "manual download" button in the product page but it seems to do nothing?

 

I'd LOVE this to work.

You could download but not install with Install Manager on one machine, then trasnfer the instalaltion zip to the Install manager downloads folder on the off-line machine and install it.

Thanks for the reply!  That's what I've been trying.  I have DIM but that crashes as soon as I try to download anything.  Daz Central has no option to download, only install.  As I mentioned there IS a manual download button on the product page but that goes nowhere - been trying for 3 days now!!

So in looking further at the new bundle, it clearly has no dim download. and yeah I put a ticket in. It does have a manual and daz central download though. 

EDIT: but the manual download does not work. It is because no contents are listed in the bundle. Ugh.

Customer Support works so smoothly and efficiently, but their workload is repeatedly increased by missteps in QA and Marketing.

Unfortunately, that's becoming more frequent at more places than just DAZ...  The front line support guys are always on the hook for the actions of the central departments.

That isn't the default behaviour when using a posing tool, have you tried Fixmypcmike's suggestion?

This is not a central axis.
It's the one on each button of the clothing.
Sorry for the confusing image.

Ah, then yes it's the marker for a Rigid Follow group.

Bonjour, je viens d'acheter le nouveau bundle "Get in the ring wrestling bundle" mais Daz Central ne le télécharge pas. j'ai recharger Daz Central plusieurs fois mais le problème est toujours là.

Un peu d'aide serait bienvenue, merci.

The new wrestling bundle has the Daz Central-only installer type issue, that's why it's not showing up in DIM.

Bundles should not have any install types listed. If it has one, it indicates it's not set up as an actual bundle.

Yeah, there is definitely something up with the Get In the Ring Wrestling Bundle, there are no thumbnails showing the included products under the main promo image like all the other bundles have:

That might explain why nothing is showing up in DIM for people who purchase the bundle? Also "Install Types" just lists Daz Central.

Edit - Oops! Looks like Ati beat me to it. :)

Same Issue Blender 2.83.2

I will try the file search install add-on method. Thanx Bennie for file name.

- Trying Daz Central DL n Install

- Negative, No Joy.Several uninstalls and reinstalls. No Files found installed. No search results in Blender add-ons.

We used to drive from Indianapolis to Louisville, KY to the train station, then get a train from there down to Florida. I remember the clickety-clack sound putting us to sleep as it was a long journey, we always started our trip mid-afternoon as there was no air conditioning. Starting the trip mid-afternoon, we traveled mostly at night so it was cooler.

The windows were the kind with those aluminum squeezy gadgets to lower the window, one on each side of the pane. I remember aluminum running across the top of the window glass so when you lowered it the glass was protected along the top rim. Funny the things kids remember. I always looked behind and in front of us to see every person's height of their window, just by looking at the aluminum bars.

The seats were an industrial dark green vinyl, no cracks, good shape. Not hard, not soft, seats did not recline and we were on the train all night. We'd take turns laying down and stretching out across each others' laps. (me and my sister. Mom slept upright and we used her lap too LOL)  The seats were decently wide, unlike today's airplane seats which are small and crammed together. I was very sad when that train route was discontinued for passengers years and years later. 

I've never been on a train in the US except old out of date trains used as tourist for short local trips. The trains your family was on sound like a school bus on train tracks.

Well all these trains caused me to go buy the "Abandoned Train Station" It's sort of like Penn Station, Grand Central, Gare Du Nord and other big relatively modern urban train stations. I hope I can replace textures on it easy enough to make it look functioning.   

You should find it in the DAZ Install Manager (DIM) or if you have that new DAZ Central thing. DIM usually gets automatically installed when you install DAZ Studio and should be in C:\Program Files\DAZ 3D\DAZ3DIM1

I only ever manually download my content from the store page, and there appears to be no way to do so

Setup of new NVMe drive went well, Daz reinstalled and all previous settings restored fine. I also was able to return my Daz content to my main NVMe drive now that it's much larger and update my content directories without hassle.

Daz really need to work on Central. It installed the main Daz application ok but it doesn't install DIM nor is there any option in Central to install DIM so it has to be installed manually. Still need DIM becaues there are products I've purchased recently that simply don't show up in Central at all, like Scene Optimizer and Skin Builder 8. It's crickets from Daz on those issues, despite tickets and forum posts.

And for those who are interested, taking content from a slower 500Mbps SSD to a 3Gbps 650k IOPS PCIe3 NVMe drive makes practically no difference in Daz :)

I get the same error when DIM upgraded to 1.4 on win 7 x64. It reports an error unpacking DAZ3DDIM.exe. I was hoping to move a lot of my Daz stuff to a different drive tonight, but now I can't uninstall any of it apparently.

Daz Connect will not work for me and I refuse to go near Daz Central.

What security software do you use?

There aren't any Daz Central-only items. It's just a glitch that shows up on some items until it's sorted out.

They've stated a few times since Central was released that there's no Central-only products, it's just a bug that needs to be fixed.
