A REALLY FRUSTRATING PROBLEM WITH DAZ3D + CENTRAL
Hello everyone, Im facing a really big problem with daz installation.
I have installed the program the first time using central and tried to set the BASE directory thinking it was where the content is downloaded as I have a 265TB SSD and a 1TB HDD where I want the software to be installed on the SSD for performance purposes and the content on the HDD for space distrubition management..... To cut it short, everytime I reinstall daz a new directory appears and every content downloaded is corrupt and to add insult to injury I downloaded the old fashioned DIM (cause it is what Im used to ) and tried to install from there and it is getting worse! That central just screwed the whole thing and cant seem to reset everything back to original state....
I tried searching online for a solution and couldnt find anything.
Please help!

The base path in Daz Central is used by everything; that is part of the simplification of the process. Install Manager will pick up the paths from Central if it is installed afterwards, but they can be chnaged in its Advanced Settings as usual (gear icon at top-right). You can reset DIM's paths to the defaults from the right-click menu, but you will then need to uninstall/reinstall the content and applications and set the current paths used in Daz Studio - there is a sample script that you can download and drag into the DS Viewport to make sure the current DIM paths are included in DS http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/scripting/api_reference/samples/file_io/install_manager_config_import/start
