Its a good idea Alleycat, just be aware that you need the low res figures for the walk designer if you use it. Also you can get rid of the associated textures, and OBJs. If disk space is a concern consider these, as you have ProPack: Convert .BUMS to JPEGs (you will need to edit MAT files and characters though, so only do this if you have the patience of Ron Knights). Paintshop Pro does it. Saved 700Mb in a similar sized Runtime. Run the Python "compress files" script. Particularly on PZ3s , CR2s and PP2s. Saved 550Mb in the props folder alone, reduced my main 17Mb Victorias to 2.5 Mb each Go through the geometries folder and delete any RSRs lurking around, Poser Propack doesn
t use them. Create MAT and Body and Face poses for any Michael/Victoria variants you dont use very often. Be aware of what uses specialised morphs though, they don
t transfer in a Pose file unless the morph is present. Consider moving folders out of Runtime and only adding them in as you need them, messy but it makes access for individual projects simpler. A last resort really. Hope some of this is useful. Mark
