I'd like to know how essential it is for supplemental files (props, poses, textures, etc.) to be properly filed in the Runtime or Extra Runtime folders. The problem is that I have just become involved in the online Poser community, and I've been amazed at the number of great items available for download. So I've downloaded hundreds of goodies, as (I'm sure) have most of you. My concern is that to load these goodies into the program might cause serious performance problems, as they will each have to be loaded at startup and kept in memory throughout each work session. I've created a "Poser Supplemental" folder within the Poser folder, but I have NOT installed all these doggone files into the program itself. Will Poser still be able to find everything, or can I expect crashes and chaos? I'm especially concerned about high-resolution Vicki maps, of which I've assembled a considerable collection. I'm using a PowerMac with dual G4 processors, and I have 200 megs of RAM alotted to Poser with 512 megs total. It's a big computer with RAM to spare, but is ANYTHING big enough to manage a thousand-odd files at startup?
