Originally DIM would only allow you to download and install content (and updates) purchased from the DAZ Store, and was very good at it saving a lot of time and frustration. This in itself is not a huge problem, just annoying.Ģ. It will only allow content to be installed in a “Shared” directory/folder notably (on an OS X system) “/users/Shared/My DAZ 3D Library”, you cannot at the time of this writing nominate any other folder of your choosing. Well, not intentionally, but it does have some quirks that are well worth noting.ġ. That is until it does exactly the opposite and causes applications to not work properly, as was the case in a previous blog post where it actually killed the CMS database. Content went into the correct place and the world was all warm and fuzzy. Then along came DIM a godsend to most, easy straight forward to use. Zip files were (and are) even worse on a Mac as there is no native merge directory utility as there is with the modern versions of MS Windows. Not only did you need to execute the install program, you needed to know where to put the content properly so that everything worked as it should. When you had a few to a lot of content to install it was a laborious task that took ages. Prior to the advent of the DAZ Install Manager now known to many now simply as DIM, all content had to be installed manually using an executable file or zip file.
