basically, anything that is in a proper runtime structure will be fine in Poser.

be aware, Poser cannot read ANY file that is in a DS format.

another point is that if you have gotten used to using the Content Manager Database in DS2/3, you will soon get p***ed off with an unsorted/unorganised runtime.

depending on how much you have installed in the DS runtime, it may pay to start from scratch and organise a runtime or runtimes to suit your workflow.

Poser 7 on can quite easily use external runtimes ( if you use Vista or W7. you know both hate user files in Programs)

i believe from Poser 8 on, you can put all your files in one folder in the libraries.

ie for a Hair Figure( or Prop) you can have the associated .pz2, .pp2 and .mc6 files as sub-folders inside the main product folder in the Characters folder of your library.

the only files that must stay in the original folders are the actual geometry ( .obj) and the texture files ( .jpg etc) which must stay in the Geometries and Textures folders.

 

hope this helps :))
