Installing missing items

pkappetein

Since I installed everything through DAZ,   since my Lib got messed up with DIM,   everything is looking great now ... Finally.
But...   I was missing some items...   Someone mentiond that some items needs to be installed through DIM, since there is nothing for Connect
Since  I have in DIM 2550 files and in DAZ 1550 files.  Is there a way to see what needs to be installed through DIM  only, which cannot be done in connect.

I don't feel like going through my account purchase pages that is 15+ pages of purchases.

Thank you

The DIM has tabs the will show what is already installed and what needs to be installed (i.e. What is in your account, but not installed).

if the installed list doesn't matchnwhat is shown in Studio, then either the content paths don't match or you are looking in Smart Content in Studio. If so, try using the Content Library tab in Studio to review content.

The lists in DIM and Connect are counting different things - DIM is counting Zip files, of whoich some products will have more than one, while Connect is counting products. You can go into the filter settings for DIM and tell it nott o show items that are available through Connect or items that are installed via Connect - use the button on the Ready to Download tab.

Aah, there is a filter for that?    cool.  I will check that when i get home.

Thanks for the tip Richard :)

I was forgetting but there are now pre-made filters for this using the filter menu (in the tags sub-menu).

Lot's of filters..

So I need to create a custom filter,  or is there an option in the filter settings already for

tell it not to show items that are available through Connect or items that are installed via Connect

I see a  instd  but idk if that's the one?

If you installed the Default Filter package you should already have one set-up.

ok found it..

But since I have everything in the download list already as being downloaded,  it doesn't filter it on that page.   

I need to make a new download path, and then run it I guess to see what is not done through connect in order to see the differences

Edit:

interesting...   all the PS  files...

but I see also normal items

like :  http://www.daz3d.com/v4-elite-reby-sky

when I look in Daz it's not there,  but on the page it doesn't say  for what it is..  but all the other items from that bundle are installed through DAZ  :/   but not the character ... weird

Same for:   Kids 4 Toddler    needs to be installed in DIM ,  but all the other items from the bundle are installed through Connect...

Same for:  Hiro 4 Base     needs to be installed in DIM ,  but all the other items from the bundle are installed through Connect... 

so... the Main Character goes through DIM, and all the items can be done with Connect...    Sounds odd to me..   lol

4th generation characters and morphs can't be installed with Connect.  Their clothing, etc. can.
