It appears that when saving a Prop from within Poser 6 it saves all the paths, within the pp2 file, as full paths not just relatve to the runtime folders this includeds both geometries and textures. This causes problems when providing freebies when installed on other peoples computers. I am editing a whole lot of files right now! (The Tool Collection for Poser is a great help!) Thanks to Ptrope for bringing to my attention. Richard

Poser 4 does the same, sometimes save full path other times the relative path. I don't know the rule.

I always edit the files with a text editor

It's stated in the readme, that P6 handles paths more consistent...

ReadMe? * smile* Hmmm.... Your right - I live and learn.

I thought P6 had a setting somewhere that asked if you wanted relative or absolute references, but I must have dreamt it cuz now I can't find it again for the life of me.

"It's stated in the readme, that P6 handles paths more consistent..." ... but consistent with what? Certainly not earlier versions of Poser!?! Fortunately Correct Reference can undo the damage done. (P.S. New version will build the distribution zip files for you too... )

Does the new version correct references to geometry files as well as Textures? Now that would be helpful!
