Hello everyone

 I am new to 3D and I need someone to explain how the download because there I just can not.

 I would do my download and install Daz Install Manager if possible.

 Thank you in advance for your attention.

 with respect

Content that isn't from DAZ won't usually work with the Install manager I'm afraid. Open the zip and check the folders - if there are Data or Runtime folders then everything in that sub-folder should be merged with the corresponding folders in your DAZ 3DStudioMy Library folder in your Documents folder (assuming you are using default locations).

I wonder whether escalibur47 is atually asking how to download DIM (Download Install Manager) and then DS 4.8? If so, as I recall, you go to the Daz website and follow the download instructions. Once you have Dim installed on your computer opening it will reveal the files which are available for downloading, including (presumably) DS 4.8. Almost all stuff bought through the Daz site works through the DIM and they are also easily findable in the Content Management System (CMS) of DS. 

The problem, as stated, arises with files downloaded through other suppliers, of which Renderosity is in my view the main contender. The structures are rarely (although I think it is improving) quite the same as native Daz ones, and they don't normally have the metadata that makes them easily discoverable in DS CMS. I have found that opening items through Windows Explorer, using DS as the program for opening them, often makes them visible for at least that session, and you can, of course, save them as scene subsets which DS CMS then finds, but it is a fag. You can also add the metadat yourself, but even I with a brain the sizeof a planet (admittedly, a small one) have not been able to confidently master that, largely because it is long-winded, takes ages and is not easy to remember.

Normally for downloading files from third-parties, I unzip them to a specific folder within an overall 'unzipped files' folder normally giving the folder the same name as the base item (eg wombat-by-malwat - which does not exist). It can be a single unzip or it may be several, depending on the complexity and the producer's whims. Then I examine that folder, and hopefully it will be nice and simple with just Runtime as the main folder and then sub-folders such as Documentation, Textures, etc. I usuall copy these sub-folders lock, stock and barrel into the 'My Daz 3D Library' which for reasons best known to others is in C:/Users/Public/Public Documents  (I think that is the default setting, and have not messed with it).

With luck and a fair breeze, I may then find files.......I strongly advise making notes of what you buy as I have several thousand models and don't remember most of them. Fortunately sites like Daz and Renderosity tell you if you have already bought something.

Hope this helps, and if anything is wrong with my cunnignsystem, perhaps someone will tell me!
