Maybe Ron Knights (aka Bobby_Boucher) only buys and uses DAZ products and only uses things which self-install wherever a marketing monkey has put them... but most of us buy and use products from a wide variety of sources and some of us are intelligent enough to want to put files where WE please. Even with DAZ products, I don't use their installer. I self-extract to a custom folder and do my own installation. Otherwise you get Vicki bits in Zygote Character, Zygote Characters, DAZ Character, DAZ Characters, and a half dozen other places, some of which might possibly include "V" or "Vicki" as part of their name. Who needs to search all over the darkside of the moon for a particular Vicki character, when all of them can be in one nice tidy folder? If any readme goes into the generic Poser readme file... it will never be seen again. I don't go there. I doubt if most people make daily treks to their readme Folder to see what has been copied over lately. I put the readmes with each appropriate file when I unzip the package. Also, I don't deliberately put textures into Runtime. They stay outside in my Poser Folder under a neatly set-up series of folders and subfolder. It may take Poser a hair longer to find them... but I don't have gold.jpg overwriting itself all the time, and I don't have a bloated Runtime only good for bragging rights because it is too fat to run a job. I've started putting the textures for various garments in the main folder for that garment, even if the textures are by another artist. If all the textures for PhilC's Fantasy Wrap are in one folder with the wrap and all the textures for SergeMarck's Consulat Dress are with the dress it makes loading them from the Materials Room that much quicker.
