fonpaolo, I'm well aware of what is going on with Carrara.
To use genesis in carrara you have no choice but to use a studio content folder. You don't have to have CMS; I don't, wont have it on my machine. Like I did with the DS4 betas, I let it run once and uninstalled it.
DAZ might be pushing CMS hard, but other then having an empty smart content tab I haven't seen where not having it has made any difference in useing genesis.
Now if DAZ does something to force people to use CMS DAZ will lose more customers.
And if DAZ trys to force carrarests in to a studio content folder they might as well shut down carrara, not many will still be using it.
Give me the old tried and true, every thing in it's palce and a place for everything poser runtime. I think the studio cluster F content folder is about a waste of space. It's about as organized as a kids toy box and about as easy to find anything in.
I have a studio content folder for genesis and the optitex dynamic clothing. There really shouldn't be any more there, yet I have dozens of empty folders going now where. I have folders in folders in folders and all of them empty. I have repeated repeats of repeted empty folders.
I work in my runtimes, I need them sorted and organized. I don't want to play whereswaldo everytime I go looking for something. And as long as I can still instlal in poser format to a runtime I wont begoing to a studio content folder for any more then I absolutly have to. And that would be DSF spacific content and the optitex dynamic clothing. {which if you still have studio 3 you can use in carrara}.
