Content Gatherer from PC to Mac: Not finding any of the files

Hi all!

I'm traveling for work this week and I found out being alone in a hotel all week is going to be very boring! I wanted to continue my hobby on the road, but I didn't want to FTP ~50 GB of content over the hotel WiFi. My initial idea was to try to access my drive remotely as a library, but that did not work for me.

During my research I discovered D3D's content gatherer which sounded perfect (http://www.daz3d.com/content-gatherer). I got it and tried it out, zipping my current scene into a folder. A whopping ~600 MB, so I assumed it worked, and perusing the files it does look someone accurate. However, when I load it on my mac it is constantly asking me to point to the files, which more-or-less defeats the purpose. I also noticed the file structure it is looking in is not the file structure that it is saved in.

Anyone know how to fix this?

    if you have not done so already contact the vendor (Dimension3D) and report this behavior.

    Which version of Daz are you using? I don't think Content Gatherer works with 4.8 yet.
