Downloading with Dim...No new files converted?

With changes to the zip files for downloading as of \may 15..has daz quit converting files for d/l? I still have lots of older files that haven't appeared in DIM yet which now is my preferred method d/l so I can control install and removal of files easier. I am curious to know if there has been a hold up of converting older files. I haven't had any new downloads of older files in 2 weeks at least.

Thanks for any insight

    The May the 15th date is when the installers are beginning to be phased out, I don;t believe that everything has yet been converted to work with the DIM. If there is something that you think should have been converted by now, say a Gen4 or even Gen3 item, then please report it in the Mantis Bug Tracker. There is a special category for the DIM in there.

    I have dozens of items that haven't been converted to DIM yet..all the items for the dress for v4/s3 and texture sets for them haven't been converted...greek bath and texture set...tons of items. It would take me a week to list them all...is daz only converting what is being reported now?

    No they are not doing that.

    They have asked on the forums for people to report any items that are missing so that they can address the problem.

    As far as I am aware, ALL V4 items have been converted long ago, and if I were you, I would start listing them somewhere, even her, just to see if anyone else has them missing as well.

    I've got a list of about 200 items that haven't been converted, nearly all old items (SKU < 5000). I'm still seeing a couple of dozen show up each week -- about a hundred have appeared in the past month -- so I know they're still working on them. They generally show up mid-week.

    I just went through and converted over to DIM. The products I found that are not available in DIM yet are listed below. Some are very old, but the Dungeon is a recent product.

    The Dungeon
    Atmospheric Effect Cameras
    Fantasy and SciFi Effects
    Dark Warriors for GIS
    Embrace Hair MEGA Pak
    Dream Home Media Room Decor Eclectic

    I can confirm that the Embrace hair Mega Pack is not yet prepared for the DIM to install, but it is fairly old, but perhaps it has been missed. The rest of the products I don't have, but I'm sure someone else can check them for us.

    Hmmm. I rechecked. I cannot find the Atmospheric Effect Cameras listed in DIM. When I go to the Product Library page for Atmospheric Effect Cameras, it does not list a DIM installer.

    Do you get these early as a Beta tester perhaps?

    I may be thinking of a different set. But I did check my DIM installs before I answered.

    Is there only a 32 bit version of DIM? Is that what I'm suppose to install on my 64 bit?

    All that's needed and works fine on my 64bit PC.

    I have found a few more old products that do not have DIM installers yet, but I am not very worried about this.

    I assume when DAZ says they are going to "begin to be phased out" the old installers on May 15th, that means that new products that are released after that date will only have DIM installers. Some time after that they will probably start slowly removing the old installers from the product library pages, but they are not going to remove the installers for any product that does not have a DIM installer yet.

    So far as I can see a glaring omission is Millennium Cat (not the big one!)

    Yes, I can confirm that, the Big Cat is done for both the full and LE versions, but the Mil Cat is only the LE version atm, and I have both.

    And now we have the Millenniumk puddytat in DIM ... so I can re-start to make use of Lyne's freebie morphs/mats:)

    I got the Millennium Cat and the Dungeon in the last few days.

    Not sure DAZ is looking at this thread. I assume they must have sales data for products, and perhaps even sales data for people who have installed DIM. It would make sense for them to be working on products based on how many people are waiting for them.
