Ive spent most of the morning searching in vain for my Hiro/aiko4 stuff. The closest I get is the Toon versions. Now, I am kind of considering switch my old webcomic over to the toon style but I'm not really all that serious about it yet. I really want to know how to use this new smart content or go back to the old way of doing things so that I am familar with everything. We really need a theme or something that returns us back to basics. Can anyone please help point me in the right direction? How do I find all my old content that I installed with the install manager?

Thanks for your time and have a great day

    There is also a Search function at the top of the Content Library pane, and you can look under Products as well alphabetically.

    Smart Content relies on Metadata to populate it, so some older items may not have that, and items form other stores probably wont.

    All figures prior to Genesis, were in Poser Format, so go to the Content Library pane, Poser Formats > My DAZ 3D Library > Figures > DAZ People, and you will find all of your Generation 4 figures there.

    It is no different than it was in DS3, except for having separate entries for DAZ Studio and Poser, in DS3 they were all lumped together.

    Oddly enough I did not think to look there. Thank you. I now have access to my content. that's one good thing. Now to see if I can't drag out my custom content on my archived drive so I can remake my characters from scratch. I can simply add a library so I dont get things mixed up, right?

    I actually tried the search and didnt locate the actual a4/h4 characters, I just found the clothes, morphs and poses. It's just a little new to me, I quit Daz soon after the a4/h4 toon came out, I caught them on sale since I based a couple character on the a3/h3 version and planned to upgrade to the 4th gen until daz 4 ate my save files.

    Under 'Products' they should be easy to find, I have 'Aiko 4 Base' in my Products section, and 'Hiro 4 Base' as well. It only takes seconds to find them that way. Aiko 4 is a morph of V4, and H4 is a morph of M4, they are not standalone characters, but they do have CR2 files which load the appropriate V4/M4 mesh to start with.
