Daz Daz studio adding downloadable Asset Releases(winrars)

[xDEEPx]

Hi I am not sure if this is in the right section.. its my first time requesting this question..

So I am looking at the asset releases for something nice to add to my Daz however whatever I extract in to the locations doesn't show up anywhere not in the smart content or the content library, and the thing is people guides always say the best way to find the place to put it is to go into preferences and content directory management to find the location... i.e this image here

You must be registered to see the links

whatever files i put in that location do not show up in daz program...
also when i download daz it makes like 3 other files named Daz3D in different locations in my c: drive user documents etc i decide to extract the files in all of them still nothing appears.. please help>?

In conclusion whatever i download and extract and place doesn't show up..?
#Thanks

What location are you extracting it to, the default location for manually adding downloads is in a stupid spot, C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library I have it shortcutted on my desktop. I even manually install Daz installer ones in there a lot of the time so I know where the are, ie if I put something in the environments or hair that's exactly where is shows up Daz in the content library (I never use the smart content) and it's not as simple as just extracting them in there.

Best way how to solve this problem is buy bigger HDD and made clone on this new one. Because making with programs like Daz with more databases is just problems you don't want to have
I'm mostly using DAZ finding function in way of using content.

It's very straightforward to have a second content drive for Daz if you want.

If you have a D drive or something like that, make a folder on it for Daz content.
Inside DS, go to Edit > Preferences, click on the Content tab and press Content Directory Manager at the bottom
Click on "Daz Studio Formats" and then press "Add..." under "Directory" on the left
"Accept" your way out

Now items installed in that directory will show up inside your Content just the way that content in the default location (C:\Users\Public\Documents\My DAZ 3D Library ) does.

Maybe that helps you. At least you save more hard disk space.

Before you install, look at the Texture Convert settings Max.Size have on 1024x1024.
Watch in between if there are new updates.
