Subject: the PxDB Content Browser for Poser & Daz

Does anyone have any opinions about the PxDB Content Browser for Poser & Daz from Rocketship 3d? The site refers to Windows 7 but says nothing about newer versions of Windows????? Any advice would be a help... Thankx

I guess the best thing to do would be to drop the vendor a sitemail or contact them via their website. There is a mention on the webpage of a new version on the way, so even if this current version doesn't support Win10 maybe the next will.

I tried that but the e-mail was returned as undeliverable. I tried their support page on their website and that seems to be down as well... Oh well... it looked like a great answer

It works fine for Windows 8.1 64-bit. I like it and use it often with Poser, and it saves a ton of time in terms of finding things. But I sometimes wish I had stuck with 1.2 instead of getting the update to 1.3. It's more useful for those with vast amounts of Poser content than a small amount of the latest DAZ file formats, though it will index and thumbnail the latter after a fashion. The problems with the licence server, which happened about three years ago, have long since been cured.

If you have a huge old runtime to index, you need to run RSR Converter on its /content/ folder first, and tick the box to recurse the sub-directories, to ensure you have all the nice thumbnails showing up in PzDB on your older content.

So... make sure you run RSR Converter converter on your content/runtime folder, then try PzDB 1.2 first and if you like that stick with it. For DAZ Studio, my amount of newer types of content is still fairly low, so I find I can manage to find stuff fairly easily with the DAZ Content Library. The freeware Agent Ransack can also be useful in fast searching for keywords on your runtime filenames, though I rarely need to use it instead of PzDB and/or the DAZ Library.

I just looked at the Rocketship website. Drafter, have you not tried the free trial version? That'll be the easiest and most obvious way to check if PzDB can run on your Windows system. Then, if it does run and you like it, you can get a licence via the Payloadz service, which I've used and is fine and reliable (despite the slightly dodgy-sounding name).
