Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 18 10:25 pm)
Subject: Absolute File Paths...
If you are using external Runtime libraries which contain the geometry and texture maps, there is no way around this. Poser only uses relative paths for its internal Runtime references.
To avoid this, it is best to have all of the geometries and texture maps stored in the internal Runtime. Of course, this isn't exactly possible for internal Runtimes referenced from other Poser versions (say Poser 5 Runtime being referenced in Poser 7).

But do you have referenced Runtimes other than the one that installed with Poser 7? For instance, do you have a separate Runtime for V3 or V4? Otherwise, Poser always uses relative paths for references from the internal Runtime (Poser 7:Runtime:). Content loaded into the Downloads Runtime might be considered external - I don't know as I never use it.

Hmm... my BlackBerry ate my post?
I only have one external runtime because on Vista it was giving me problems in the Program Files (x86) directory. When I switched back to XP 64 I never changed it. Also, I had a problem with Poser SR2 where it corrupted some XML file and Poser wouldn't even start. I had to reinstall the program. I left the default runtime alone after that incident.
not sure if it's a help or not, but the few times I've loaded (but not used...mea culpa..;) Daz Studio, it asked where it should find content, including Poser directories. I presume that's no help, though, but it seems it should at least dope-slap D|S into looking...;)

Are driving me nuts. Is there any way to make Poser stop writing absolute file paths when you create files? I hate having to hand edit everything to put it back to relative pathing when I'm done.
