Bad texture references are not an issue when loading Poser. They only become an issue when you try to load the cr2, pz3, pp2 etc that has the bad reference in it. My Runtime is 35 GB, takes about 2 minutes to load. Doesn't worry me since I don't close Poser until I'm finished anyway, so waiting once a day is OK. With a single runtime I have everything at my fingertips all the time. I would NEVER ever use a utility that took out any files, NEVER. Not in Poser, not in Windows, not anywhere. I do that kind of stuff manually if at all. Never automatically. :] Fish
