hornet3d, you told that PP2012 incooperated your whish lists - from what stores - Content Paradise, runtimeDNA, DAZ,...?

Thanks in advance and I'm curtain that I'll find what I'm looking for :-)

Sorry I did not explain myself too well.  If I know the name of a product I will use the search function in PP2012 but if I want, say a type of space craft I will use the 3D Content database.  It is stand alone but I have set fields to match the external runtimes I have created so if I do a search on Space (the runtime name) and Transport, this will list all the space vehicles I have and also any I have seen and liked but not purchased. I can then click line by line of the search results and see the craft in quesion.  If I have yet to purchase something the entry will then show which site the wishlist in hosted on.  Those I have purchased will show where in the runtime it can be found and associated products such as different materials.

I update the database with each purchase and then the download is stored in a folder by year and month which is backed up accordingly.  On the rare occasion I have lost or deleted a product the runtime the database will show the year and the month that it was purchased and therefore it is easily located and re-installed.  Alternatively it will show the site I purchased it from along with the order or item number and I can request a reset of the download.

 

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
