WINDOWS: DIM keeps installing hexagon 32-bit version, but I need 64-bit version

For some reason, DIM only installs the 32-bit version. The one that causes "internal error" when using certain tools.

I try to install the 64 bit version, but DIM keeps installing the 32 bit one.

Filters seem not to work

So I am using the DIM filters to explicitly select softwar by:

Filter by Tag > Release Channel > General Release - 64-bit

There is also the option

Filter by Tag >  Software > General Release - 64-bit

It's the only option that will show me Hexagon to install, from all the options inside "tag".

Anyways, no matter what list of "resources to install" I see, it only indicates "Hexagon 2.5" without indicating if it's 32-bit or 64-bit.

If I then select Hexagon 2.5 and install it, it keeps installing the 32-bit version (the one that causes errors when using certain tools on Genesis figures).

I tried the install on a different computer, and it's still installing the 32-bit version.

Any resources to install, the 64-bit version? Even if it's manually? I've been searching half the day and can't find anything on the web.

  • You need to enable betas to see the 64 bit version.

    It is as Richard writes, you have to activate the beta in Daz Central, only then can you download it.

    But you can also work with the 32-bit version.

    It would be nice to see new "News" from time to time. Like maybe reworked tutorials? New primitives?

    One of my foibles is that I tend to overlook the included content... so for me a reminder manifest or list might be... good.

    DAZ does not ignore other areas, like DIM wastes no time promoting stuff like "Mateo 9" with little pop-up ads.

    Whoa, I didn't know a downloadable Daz Central existed. I was working raw with just Daz and Hexagon and DIM hahaha.

    Thanks for the heads up!

    Exactly what happent to me, overlooked that "enable betas" option. Indeed I didn't know there was a desktop program for Daz Central!!

     

    (Now I can't find it in Daz Central, tho.)
