Saved files

Arjey

In older times I found my saved files (save as... Scene) under

Smart Content/Default/Saved Files

Now I found no saved file - except a folder "Follower" what contains 2 Hair-files I never saved.

what is wrong?

I use a new W10 computer with the latest DS version

 

Thanks for helping answers!

Try saving a nother scene and see which on-disc folder it goes to, then you can find the files in the Content Library under Daz Studio Formats (assuming the location was in a content diectory), right-click, and use the option to show in Categories to find how they are being placed (or to show that they aren't).

Sorry, perhaps I didn't explain my problem exactly.

In former days I was able to find my saved files (with a picture!) under Smart Content... where I was able to categorize it to one of my private folders. This seems to be not possible anymore.

I think in former days my saved file apeared in the Smart Content... no matter, where I saved it to. 

For what the "saved files" under smart content/default is used now? - what files will be shown there?

btw: my private folders are NOT in a content library.

some product added their part in smart content "saves", hair, clothes, characters,, 

in smart content as you can see in "saves" there is more folder than "scenes"

you can deleted them or uncategorise them, but when you "re import" metadata, they comes back

if you want to see ONLY your saved files in smart content you must hilight the "scenes"

Sorry again, but this last answer does not solve my problem. My problem is, that I don't see ANY saved file

Try looking not in Smart content, but the section where you save scene subsets and such, for me it is the Studio/My Library/Scenes.

I think in the Content Libray window it's \Daz content Files\My Daz 3d Library\Scenes

all saved files going into the main library set by path (check DIM)
i have 10 separate library and all scenes goes to the main library found in DIM "path list" (i don't use default install path)

- coulb be a bad move from you !

when "save as" explorer window open and you type a new name,, 
if you manualy used "explorer" to save a file outside "main path"
 by default DAZ continue to save on that place

be sure when "save as" to check "explorer path" if the path is in "scenes" of your main library

Just curious, since this is far from the first time I've seen this question posted — is there an obvious-to-new-users scene save method that might not be so obvious to us older hands? I can't see how a saved file can be immediately lost. I've been using DAZ|Studio since the very first versions, long before Smart Content was introduced, and I've always saved scenes and settings directly into the Content Library tab using the "+" button at the bottom.
