I'd recommend you do this, and then come back here and post what you see in both DIM and what you see in DAZ3D itself. That will further help you determine where your content is going. This will show you where DAZ, the program. What you're interested in is DAZ Studio Formats and Poser Formats.Ĭlick the + next to these to expand their trees. Click that and you'll get a new window with a tree view. The Content tab has a button called 'Content Directory Manager'. On the Edit Menu, select Preferences, and you'll get a window that shows where TEMP files are stored, on the General tab. That is where installed content gets dropped. Understanding where these different libraries reside is important. There will be an area at the bottom with a 'Recommended' label, with the path C:/Users/Public/Documents/My Daz 3D Library, most likely - plus some other paths that you've custom defined. There are a number of path options in here. Click the Advanced Settings option, and in the tabs click the Installation tab.

If you use DIM (Daz Install Manager), you'll want to open it up, and click on the little gear in the upper right hand corner for settings. So, the first thing to figure out is where you want your main DAZ content library to be. With all that said, I'm an IT professional, and I know all these problems because I've experienced them, and still have a lot of broken stuff slowing down DAZ that I'm afraid to move around.

This is made worse because a lot of graphic artists aren't IT people, so they don't really understand the messages and errors that pop up or know how to read the logs to figure out what is broken. It is compounded by each piece of content dropping files scattered throughout those directories - and if you change the path - content won't find 'support' files like textures or morphs.

The problem usually occurs when you set custom paths, then an upgrade resets the library paths, and you end up with content in multiple different locations. There are several different content wizard type utilities that will help. The last thing I want to do is lose more than a decade of work because my old filing structure was too archaic and unoptimized.Īnd, seriously, many thanks to anyone in advance who reads this and can help. I hope I'm not too far gone to be saved here. I MUST be doing something wrong, but even looking through the DAZ forums I don't even know where to begin, what to ask, or how to approach streamlining everything so I can 1) actually start using new models again, 2) make DAZ run faster instead of spending an hour searching for the right content, and 3) having to fix broken file links and manually searching for the right content because DAZ can't find it when loading up a scene. Because of how it got laid out back then (multiple files across multiple harddrives, Poser and DAZ files in separate folders, custom-made stuff), I've been unable to easily upgrade or add new files to DAZ and I've been stuck using Victoria 4-era characters and props for years now. I'm always nervous about asking for help, but I've been suffering through unoptimized, badly managed file libraries for years now and I'm ready to put an end to it.
