Any tips or insights would be helpful

Hello everyone!

I am a mediocre DAZ user. I know the software fairly well, but far from an expert.  I was hoping to pick some brains here. 

My story:

My old computer fried, I lost everything etc.  Luckily I had a backup of all of my MATS and purchased art etc, Renderosity and the like.  My memory is foggy and I am now using a later version of DAZ then previously. 

I would like to import all of my Renderosity type stuff over to my DAZ directory to improve workflow.  Any tips on this?  Which folders in the DAZ library should I be targeting? 

Thanks everyone!

    Is it DS format or Poser Format? You can't directly integrate the two, that would be done via categories. In any event, you need to select the folder that contains the Runtime and/or Data folder.

    It's DAZ only, I TRY to stay away from Poser stuff when possible.

    So, right-click on the Daz Studio Formats heading in the Content Library, select Add Base Directory from the menu (or it might be New Base Directory), and use the dialogue to select the folder that holds the "Data" and the "Runtime" folders - those should not be in a subfolder of another content directory, which can happen if you just unzip the downloaded content.

    thanks!

    I have been navigating to each manually for data, pose and then color, it takes a very long time this should help!
