madriver thank you so much for this info! I'll run my 10.5 and 2010 for just a wee bit longer then. Saved me a bunch of time - appreciate.

PoserFusion for Cinema 4D and Lightwave have just been published. Refresh page if links do not appear.

My experience so far with C4D 12 and 13 64 bit plugins under Win 7 64 bit is immediate "not responding" and hard crash. All updates applied (system, video, Poser and Cinema). Tried loading a base V4.2 saved out with, then without external binary morphs.

But anyhoo, the plugins are there. Hope you better luck than me.

Penguinisto.. exactly!  That's what I had to do to search my runtime - tied it to a backend database (but on Winblows). I am surprised that no vendor does that in their main product unless your talking team versions - which is more focused on versioning, accounting, legal, project and workflow rather than the precursor: finding stuff.

Database is the key. Can't develop Artificial Intelligece directives to your assets without it and that is where the future of 3D lies IMHO. I'm just befuddled why companies haven't broke much ground there.

Wow, now I don't feel so bad at 57GB, single runtime. All purchased, just a handful of freebies, not counting saved scene files.

No performance penalty at all for my single runtime - then again, I don't use library or collection manager in Poser (or DAZ Studio) at all. Use my own content manger to scene feed. Just point Poser 6, 7, Pro, DS to the single and done. Startup time for all Posers and DS is ultra fast (their library pointers aren't set on the content) just timed it, 12 seconds for Poser 7.

Not to get too much OT, but nyguy, what kind of manager do you use? I had to write a custom library manager in C++, but it finds anything in approx 1 second, including search results returning 70,000+ items.

So, 422GB.. The record! (so far) That is so cool!!! Do I hear 1/2 a tera.. anyone?
