are we talking poser format content, or daz format content or both here? :biggrin: I have multiple runtimes set up for my poser content in studio- Test - this stays empty and is used to test every product I download in poser format, before I move the files to their appropriate home. Morphs-Textures - for all 3rd party figure character and morph sets. Hair Victoria 3 Clothes Aiko 3 Clothes David 3 Clothes Hiro3-Clothes Koshini M2-V2 Clothes Michael 3 Clothes Millenium Kids People - contains all Base figures, Daz morph packs and figure poses files. People clothes - contains clothes for all figures that can share texture packs Stephanie Petite Clothes The Girl Clothes Machines Environment Creatures - Contains all real world, fantasy, toon creatures and figures. Of course, organising this way would require you to basicly start from scratch, reinstalling everything that you have, organising it as you go. My studio format content is also organised within the content folder - a folder for each figure, with folders inside for characters, clothes-models&mats, hair etc, seperate folders within the content folder for animals, shaders, scripts, scenes with more than one figure. As with the poser content, I also have a test folder set up in studio for installing studio content to, to check it out before I move it to the appropriate content folders. But how you organise your studio format content is really up to you. With clothes, clothing will only conform to the figure if you used the same morphs with the figure that are included in the clothes. Unless you use something like Morph Magic or the Tailor to add the extra morphs that you have used to the clothes.
