  • No, some products don't. But usually, they are stand-alone products that install as seperate programs on your computer, e.g. like Headshop. If the product contains 3D contents, it should appear in DIM.

    Daz Central, Texture Atlas, Content Creator Toolkit (CCT), FBX plug-in (*), Texture Convertor 2 and TC2 plugins are not in DIM.

    * included in Daz Studio installation

    DazCentral isn't (or shouldn't be) because they can't run simultaneously.

    Texture Atlas and CCT are included in the Daz Studio install, they only need serial numbers.

    TC2 doesn't appear in DIM.

    FBX plug-in (SKU 4137) is included in Daz Studio installation too.

    There used to be the "dim::false" filter that could show you the products that can't be installed using DIM but that seems to not work anymore.

    It will probably come back at some point.   Or maybe not, now I think about it - they have removed the "dim_ready" field from the product library data and AFAIK it won't come back, and the filter may have depended on that.

    But there are other ways to find out, I already have most of the code needed for checking this so I'll see if I can put something together, if necessary.

    i am in process of downloading all of the products that appear in DIM ..only 2000 to go ... but that is the reason i need to know which ones are not being dlownloaded? 
    I don;t see a way to do it, other than trying to look at each and every product to see if it actually downloaded or not. that could take the rest of my life. 

     

    That's the only way I know of. And I'm going to have to audit my purchases one of these days (dreading it), because I have found some 3D stuff that I bought that wasn't in DIM before.

    Here's a free tool (Windows) that will find all non-DIM products in your Product Library.  Just extract into a folder and run. 

    IMPORTANT: you'll need to have downloaded all your products (or at least one file from each product/SKU) with DIM for it to work correctly. 

    The first screen is just for logging in, when logged in click the Scan Products button to open the Scan window.  Click Select DIM Downloads Folder and locate the folder, then click the Scan button.  When finished it will list all Non-DIM products in your library.  When unchecked the Include Bundles checkbox will filter out all products with the word "bundle" in their names, there are many bundles without that word in their names though so these will be included whether the box is checked or not.  

    Click on any product on the list to view it in the product library.

    Create Report will create report files with the current content in the listview, and with the current sort order.

    The code has been obfuscated which makes some AV programs suspicious, the original unobfuscated code has been tested 100% clean on virustotal though:  https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/1b3903f4418bbdf712eb03b0a679619440aac1ebca275451c0b94325b1081aca/detection

    Current version is a beta that will expire 2020-12-20, please report any problems there might be.  New version will be relased when this one expires.   Download here:  https://3dcontentmanagers.com/software/freeware/nondim-daz/updates/nondim-daz-1000b.zip

    So it determines DIM-available products using the Downloads folder?  Would it be possible to scan the Manifestfiles folder as well, for those who delete or archive the zips after install?

    Other than the current problems, do all prchased products appear in DIM?
    If not, how would one know which ones are not in there?

    No not all current products appear in DIM. I have had to submit tickets for missing products. I keep spreadheets, very large spreadsheets with multiple worksheets and there is a systematic way to audit it but it is a royal pain, tedious and time consuming task, until you catch up to a current status.

    The manual way is to create a spreadsheet of all items on each invoice and also one of the product library items. The bundles are the sneaky ones because they appear as one purchase on an invoice and of course are broken down in the product library and at times I have found items that should be in the bundles missing in DIM. There was a thread or two on it but I can't recall where. 

    Edit: Don't suppose you have had a ctrl key quit for no reason? Ctrl Alt Delete will no longer work for me even after unistalling and reinstalling drivers. Happened three days ago. :(

    Note that Headshop shows up in Daz Install Manager even though it won't properly install that way.

     Hm, isn't that file supposed to be in the root of the Downloads folder by default - I see it in both my Downloads folders?  The program is just checking that it's there to verify that the correct folder is selected.

    If all products are installed that should work too I guess, but otherwise it will also list the products that are not installed.  If the zips are archived and all the .dsx files are included, you can just select the folder they are in, but again, all (or at least one file from each product/SKU) must be downloaded.  Don't know if there are other ways to detect which files are DIM compatible, maybe the PostgreSql database contains the necessary data?

    I move the zips to categorized archive folders after installing, so the Downloads folder only has items which have not been installed.  So scanning both the ManifestFiles folder and Downloads folder should cover everything (except items which are hidden or excluded by download filters).  Does it scan subfolders of the selected folder?

    As long as it can access a dsx file (to get the SKU in the file name) for each product that can be installed by DIM, it should work.  If there are products you don't have a dsx file for because of download filters or whatever, these will be included on the list of Non-DIM products it generates.

    I've modified it with an option for including subfolders, can be downloaded here: https://3dcontentmanagers.com/software/freeware/nondim-daz/updates/nondim-daz-1000b3.zip

    I can see though that some double checking of the numbers will be necessary in general, will add that in the next release.

    Are you parsing the individual pages in the Product Library, or just pulling the SKU from the link to each product?  I assume the latter, but if it's the former, the text "This product is a bundle that contains the following products" could be used to identify bundles.

    I'm getting SKU and product name from the json data in the product library.  Scanning the library pages for the Non-DIM products would be an option yes but it may be a bit slow.  Will take a look at it.

    Well this is currently not reliable since a good number of library pages return errors when I try to access them, whether it's just in my library or it's general I'm not sure yet.  So I'm extending the expiration date for the current release to 2021-01-31, hoping that that problem has been fixed before then.
