    Download.

    Unzip to the folder(s) where you have your DAZ stuff.

    Re-start DAZ to see the new stuff.

  • The complication with Macs is, or was, if you drag a folder into a location which already has a folder of the same name the new folder will replace the old, not merge with it as it would on Windows. Since content rarely starts with the relative paths - the Runtime, Data, etc. folders - at the top level some merging is needed. There are ways to merge on Macs, but otherwise you have to make sure that when moving the new files into your content directory you are moving at the level of folders that don't yet exist.

    1. Download the zip from Renderosity.
    2. Unzip it.
    3. I recommend that you open a second finder window with your My Daz Library open.  I even have My Daz Library in my favorites on my Finder windows. 
    4. The zip should have a hierarchy like the ones in your My Daz Library, but limited, usually, to the folders that contain relevant information.  So if there is a "data" folder in the zip, you'll open the corresponding "data" folder in the My Daz Library list of folders.
    5. Keep opening the folders in the zip data folder to see how far down you have to drill down.  Example, you have a product with morphs for your Genesis 8 Female.  Your zip's "data" folder shows nested folders so it gives you a hierarchy of data>DAZ 3D>Genesis 8>Female>Morphs ending in a folder with the merchant's name and finally a folder under the merchant's name with their product name.  You want to make sure you don't overwrite anything existing.
    6. If you don't have a folder, already, with the name of that vendor, you can drag the vendor folder into the morphs folder.
    7. If you do already have a folder with that vendor's name, you would want to open it and put the vendor's product folder into the vendor's folder in your My Daz Library folder.
    8. Do the same with all the folders in your zip.
    9. If Studio is open when you do this, right click the My DAZ Library folder in your Content tab and choose to Refresh.
