Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 29 7:57 am)
I have imposed an aribitrary a 10 Gig limit if it gets bigger than that then i perfor. a Culling I do have 175 CD's(around 120gigs) of content backed up though :-)
889mb. 11,276 files down from 21gb+. Got so fed with wading through folders named !!!, too many repaints of the same merchant resource kits, and products that say 250 MAT poses, which are really re-tinted versions of the same map, I trashed Poser. Backed up a few files, re-installed to a temporary runtime, weeded out the rubbish, renamed folders and resized some textures to a more useable size. Then backed the lot up to CD. Try it, it makes working in poser a lot easier.
Pinky - you left the lens cap of your mind on again.

Hey Atelier..... You can read how on Dr Geeps tutorial...I just redid my Poser 5 this way and its so much easier to find stuff now..:) As Im still in the middle of redoing my Poser,I currently have 12 runtimes..only about 4 gbsC:Program Files:CuriousLabs (containing P5 & P6) 2.91 Gb F:External Runtimes (with 10 Runtimes) 26.6 Gb F:External Runtimes2 (with 6 Runtimes) 9.2 Gb I've got my .pz3 files in another folder, along with all the pictures I've done which is 3.58 Gb. Of course, using P5 & P6, I've deleted all the library .rsr files after making sure I've got a .png for the products so that keeps the size down.

If you're joking that's just cruel, but if you're being sarcastic, that's even worse.
Ok... let's try this again.... it ate my post... lol
Quote - How does someone divide runtimes 27 ways? I'm dying to know.
Animals
Misc Figures
Props
Poses
Mil Baby
Mil Girls
M3 Character addons
M3 Clothing
SP3 Character Addons
SP3 Clothing
V3 Character Addons
V3 Clothing
D3 Character Addons
D3 Clothing
Aiko
The Girl
Plants and Flowers
Vehicles
Christmas
Halloween
Lights
Hair
Apollo Maximus
Angels and Faeries
Mermaids
Backgrounds and Scenes
V2 Character Addons
V2 Clothing (for purposes of Wardrobe Wizard really)
Posette (again for purposes of Wardrobe Wizard)
Judy (for purposes of Wardrobe Wizard)
I may have missed some, lol
I also sort my runtimes into many sub folders. For example...
V3 Character Addons:
The library/pose folder has folders in it named for different merchants. For example, I have several of KymJ and Neomea characters, so all of their character folders go into the folder bearing their name. I do that with each of the Millennium figures, except for Mil Girl and Mil Baby.
V3 Clothing:
The Library/character and Library/Pose folder are sorted into:
Morphing Clothing
Misc Clothing
Jewelery
Shoes
Those folders are further sorted inside by outfit name. For example MFD has many textures for it. So I make one folder called "MFD" and anything MFD goes into that one folder. The MFD folder is further sorted by the name of the different dress textures that I have. So the path to my MFD textures would be: Library/Pose/Morphing CLothing/MFD/Texture Package
If you are redoing your runtime into multiple ones, this does take a bit longer to set up. However, once it's set up it takes seconds to install files after that so it's very easy to maintain... I promise one thing... you'll never ever be looking for anything again. Because of the way I organize, I know the exact location of every poser file in my library.

Oh, can I relate to that. I've given up trying to salvage mine. I'm reinstalling the whole thing from scratch back to my laptop.
