ZIps usually have the paths defined if you have paid for them. Free stuff however, and sometimes even the paid for kind gets a few things wrong-- it's best to know where everything goes. QUick and dirty: cr2 in Runtime/libraries/character-- in a folder with a rsr or png for thumbnail. obj's usually in geometry but some progs required they be in the cr2 folder, this doesn't happen often but sometimes-- some of Kaz hair is a good example of this. [some obj are just that objects and have to be imported into Poser and saved as props, check the read me] Assume Runtime/libraries for everything but Geometry: cm2-- camera file; pp2--prop; hr2--hair; lt2--light,not lights; pz2 [the one you will have a million of] Pose file, it can be anything from a pose to a MAT to a MOR file. And I'm not even going into the ability to move most of these files around-- changing the tag names-- if you have to. NEVER move the geometry file, not even out of it's folder. Everything needs to be in a folder or it doesn't register [sometimes that's wrong but in general it's a good idea] Textures can go anywhere, don't have .bbb or whatever. Are generally in Runtime but not in libraries, but it's a good idea to have them in folders so you can find them if you need to. Confused, yet?? LOL, we all went through this, me just three months ago. I haven't even gone into the fact that some hair goes in Characters, and some in Props, some even goes in the Hair file. Emily
