Hmmm.... This is interesting. I'm just finishing a new pack which will sell at DAZ. It relies heavily on SET (or placement) files to position figures, switch body parts on/off, and even reset joint parameters. At the moment these files are all in the Camera library along with a smaller folder of MATs, and that's where I had intended to leave them. But I can see popular opinion is against me. I have to say, I'm really surprised. I would have thought people would be glad to have SETs/MATs in another folder where they have a chance of actually finding the blasted things, but it seems not. But the main reason I put them in the camera folder is that there are 'real' camera positions mixed in with them. Every group of SET files has it's own camera view. Since this pack involves moving around a room, I figured it would be so much easier to use one folder only. Now I'm not so sure. It would take me all of 2 minutes to change them with Renamer, so that's no big deal. But, I'd be interested in any comments you have on this. mac
