I am thinking about this thing, the runtimes file organization of libraries by file type and storage of resources has not made sense since Poser 3. Now I have a muddle of runtimes where the geometry is either in the Geometries or a Library sub-folder. The textures are in hard to track down cryptically named Texture sub-directories, and even major vendors will have parts of a scene in Figure, Prop, Pose and Materials sub-folders that have inconsistant folder names.

What would be radical would be an application that by-passed the need to install in a linked runtime at all! An interface that would let you load content into a scene from sub-directories of contant as downloaded or un-zipped into folders containing their own individual runtime structure. Could you imagine clicking on an un-compressed product runtime from an explorer interface and having figures, props and poses available in one window!!!

I could just organize my content external to any runtime and have the app read the geometry, textures and  .cr2s into the scene on-demand. I wonder if this could be done by the app loading the runtime sub-directory from the product folder into a Tempoary Runtime such as the "Downloads" runtime, setting up a content tab, and then clearing that runtime at the close of the session if desired. The only thing I would want is for the loader to allow one to browse from a directory tree and even better to have a thumbnail display and a file search feature.

Maybe a system where at the start of a project you could drag copies of the content you intend to use and it would be automatically set up as a temporary project runtime you can delete when you are finished with it. I was doing this manually for a while but got lazy about it and allowed my runtime to get clogged up and massive.

Could you imagine having just the main figures installed in runtime and be able to load everything else only as needed?

I think ockham's freestuff Loader.py comes closest to working this way... I used it extensively PoserPro through Poser 6 but have been using the Library tab since going to Poser 7. Before that I used to have to swap out runtimes on P4.
