Is there a way to tell Pro Pac to compress my Runtime, or something like that?????

I tried earlier to figure this out. I only could get stuff to be compressed by opening and saving it. I am very interested in compressing my 1 gig runtime folder as well. According to what Python is said to be capable of, maybe someone knows of script, or has some spare time to write it?

LOL !!!! My Runtime is 4 GIG !!! I remember reading somewhere that it can shrink it, but I can't remember where I've got it from ;-(

In the preferences window PPP users have a option to compress files. It will compress files after that, but only as you use them, in the case of a PZ3 file. or you resave a figure or prop. However you will not be able to unzip them in a way, other non-PPP users can use. My advise yoube to get a bigger HDD ( My poser HDD is 18.2 GB in size)

With the Pro Pack comes a Phyton script which can compress a whole directory. I didn't test it, I have 40 GB left on my first HD. ;)

Open the Python scripts window, select UltilityFuncs/Compress Files.

I suppose results will vary depending upon your inventory but on average this compression will only save you about 20%.
