Thank you for the picture, that's very nice. Your Prt Scr abilities are only exceeded by your cropping abilities. I'll give it only a 4 though, since it seems just slightly pixellated.

Well, whatever. I'm aware of how V4, 4.1, 4.2 work. My complaint was that DAZ even has to do that at all. It's bad enough we have to keep track of zillions of textures all over the place, but we have half a DAZ figure here, half there, God knows where it all ends up.

If you're saying it's possible to arrange it where it does all go where you want it to, and it's not necessary to have it in Poser's directory, I believe you, but I don't feel like changing it, since I know where it is when I need to back up everything.

But it seems to me that DAZ outright said you MUST install to the Poser directory, and didn't offer any options. I tried to NOT do that, thought I did it right, and it didn't load until I did as they said.

As long as I've been using Poser, since right after Poser 4 came out ( I have it in a Meta Creations box), I've never installed or unzipped stuff into a runtime - always into a temp folder so I can see what I ended up with. V4.1 is the first figure I got which failed to allow me to do that.
