No doubt you will get some good tips and advice on this subject from the members here Magic_Man. It is a little like poser in that sense and you just have to suck it up. Most of the newer content is managed by the Smart Content system and the later Daz characters usually have a full character load for their base ie Genesis 2 - Callie or Victoria on the Genesis 2 base there are many like this. Some vendor products might still need to be loaded to a character but show up in Smart Content. The further back you go the more likely you will be loading the Head and Body morphs texture etc from the Content Folder and they will be found in your contents folder under "Products" not listed in the smart content. There is no way I believe to add the older products to the Smart Content system. There was an external application that was to organize your content however from memory it was more a location base not something that would be shifting your content around. I think a demo was available in the freebie section here at Renderosity. I Don't have issue so much with anything installed by the DIM, more the external products which there are squillions all over the place where you download the ZIP and install. Once you get used to it not so bad but I did spend plenty of time searching for my new products. It gets better with each passing year my friend
