Honestly this is the first time I'm hearing about CMS (I still slog along with DS3, though I have a copy of 4Free on my system to play with genesis). I guess my question is, if CMS checks back with the Daz store site for meta-data, what happens if it's not on record that I purchased it at the Daz store? Like I have small amount of stuff left over from my old account (chiefly V3 things I never use anymore) before I took a long hiatus, lost my password, and forgot the address I used. I wouldn't want someone thinking I pirated it.

That said, I don't think there's much to worry about. From what I've toyed in DS4, it seems like I can reach my runtimes fine and everything is in the order I left it in, so I guess CMS doesn't forcibly rearrange anything. But since I pretty much use content as-it-installs rather than personally organizing my runtime, I guess I'm not the best candidate to render a guess.

I do agree with who3d though, a more smooth installation process would be nice. I had to format my system about 5 months ago and didn't have a backup of my runtime (a mistake I shant make again, I assure you -.-). Even with AutoInstaller, I STILL haven't fully reinstalled my content because of how long it takes and how many installers I have to go through.
