    Choose "Let me decide for each file" and choose the newer version.

    I'm not familiar with the program you are using to extract a zip file, if you can just drag and drop the folders to "My Daz 3D Library" or if you need to extract them.

    I think I love you!!!!!    Got Dicktator, now going to try the futalicios...

    Of course it didnt work-duplicate files/  I had previously tried skipping/replacing  and that broke the dicktator...  Tried moving the data file from futa and :(        Thankful Dicktator is working.

    Have you looked at forums in Renderotica, if the products have same files, the problem is bound to have been discussed there.

    One last question...Can I make a seperate file and load the futa content into that?

    Yes, you can create another Content Library, but first check that you have the latest versions of both - There are also Tutorials and readme's at the product pages.

    A little late to the thread, but ... I strongly recommend setting up a dedicated library for 3rd party stuff. Heck... as I hinted at above I sometimes also work with "naughty stuff" and ended up with a library dedicated to those assets. Makes life a whole lot easier.

    It's as easy as:

    • Press 'F2' to open the settings, then open the 'Content' tab: now click "Content Directory Manager".
    • In this new window you'll find several sections, but only 2 will matter: "DAZ Studio Formats" and "Poser formats".
    • Be sure that you add a new folder to both these categories because there's plenty of overlap (and it also makes things easier).

    This should also make it easier to keep control over archives which you extract somewhere.

    well, I thought the nightmare was over...I actually had both installed and working yesterday...Wake up too this..  The dreaded black exclamation on all the futa files, and a few of the dicktator-dicktator is still working-thank god, dont want to have to try and install that again.    I just did as you said and add 3rd party folder.  It also created the same folder in poser automatically.

    If go for setting up a Library for 3rd-parties' products,  it should have the root path of its own which is at the same level as your main Daz Library, rather than a 'nested' folder in it...

    Those mean there is no thumbnail, not that there is not Daz Studio file. Those are the actual user-facing files, from the /People folder, not assets, from the /data folder (which would not be visible in the content pane if the isntalaltion and content directories were correct)?
