I routinely go online to download/fix Daz when I fuck something up. The only thing I have noticed at times is that my "Installed" list will change when online to show only the files that Daz thinks I own. That scared the shit out of me one time when I crashed Daz with a bad asset and had to reinstall it. I had over 500 assets installed in "My Daz Content", but after I downloaded and re-installed it, the DIM Installed folder was showing only the 30 or so purchased assets I had.
All was well though when I ran DIM again, this time offline.... it then showed the files. I have since started making a mirror image of my asset folders on another drive.
I stay away from Daz Connect. I will not ever install that crapware, and I dread the day Daz sells out to some other company and they force us to be connected to even run Daz. So many other good software companies have done that over the years. But, if it happens, then a pirate community will keep the last offline version going for a long long time, I am sure.
