-The Daz Install Manager (DIM) and the Content Manager

The DIM and the DS Content Manager are meant to work in concert with each other, but when to use which and what about those local zipped files you have? Also, it's important to ensure that your Content Manager is looking where you expect for your content.

- How to Set up a local server

Local servers can free you from your desk or office. If you have two (or more) computers, it's frustrating to load content on all devices — especially if it's a laptop with limited disk space. Loading on a local server allows you the freedom to work where you like and use your other computer to render.

- Loading content with the Daz Install Manager

The Daz Install Manager is a great tool, but it requires setup and monitoring else you may end up loading where your Content Manager can't find it.

- Cataloguing with the Content Manager

Ever been making a scene and think, "all I need is a knife to complete this combat scene" and know you have one, somewhere, but a search for "knife" turns up nothing because the content creator called it a "dirk"? Now, where was that content with the dirk?

New in the Content Manager is the ability to organise your content where it makes sense to you. For example, the default folder for base characters is "People" and I prefer "Figures" because I like to store all base "figures" in the same location. A horse is a figure but will not reside in the "People" directory but it can in my Figure directory. We'll show you how you can create your own structure that makes sense to you and your workflow.

How to Create In Folder Instructions

All content comes with README files, that may, or may not be read, at least once. If you're like me, you might remember something "odd" about certain content pieces but I dislike having to leave my workflow to find the README, not to mention, I might not remember this was some quirk with this product.

The solution... put the instructions right in the folder with the content and if necessary, you could even link to the README so you're not spending time searching for it! We'll show you how!
