Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2025 Jan 30 7:24 pm)
Download as normal, and it automatically unzips, usually into a Runtime folder, sometimes into a product-name folder with a Runtime sub-folder. I always make sure there is a top-level folder with the product name, containing one Runtime and one ReadMe folder. At this stage, I take a copy of the complete product package onto an external drive.
To install the product Runtime into my Library Runtime, I use a little OS X utility called dittoGUI. You can get it for free, or pay around $8 or so to remove the "gimme some dosh, please" image.
With dittoGUI open, you just drag the source Runtime folder onto the Source box, drag the destination Runtime folder onto the Destination box, then press the Ditto button, and everything is copied into the correct place.
Often there are multiple download files for a single product. I also use dittoGUI to merge these into one Runtime before making my backup copy.
Hope this gives some useful ideas, even if you don't want to do it this way.

I just installed Poser 7 on my Mac running OS 10.5.5. After purchasing content to download from Renderosity the folders download as unzipped folders. I have Stuffit Expander and it doesn't have the option to automatically unzip files-I already checked. Other vendor's content downloads unzipped without a problem. As a result, I haveto manually transfer the files/folders into Poser. I'm not sure I did this correctly or why I should haveto. I emailed the vendor of one of the content material and he's at a loss as well. Why is this happening? Could someone on a mac please tell me what needs to be done?
