I want to offer some of my lighting for free, but I'm not sure of what I need to do in order to get the light settings into a zip file.  Is there a script in poser similar to PoseWriter? What am I missing?
Is it something simple that I'm over looking? Thanks for any help with this.

Winzip is what I use.

I have an empty runtime folder that I use already set up and just plop the files into their respective places in there and delete what I don't need, then zip that up.

Easy way to zip stuff is to make a empty runtime at the root level of the drive.

example c:runtime

then when you zip it up all the paths will be good.

For something like lights you can just zip them up with no path info , and tell people to extract it to poser 7/runtime/libraries/lights     cause you will just have the lt2 file and its thumbnail.

What path would I use for it to work in all versions of Poser?

either zip into c:runtimeetc  or just tell people unzip without paths to their lights folder , let them worry about where there runtime is located .

lights are ..RuntimeLibrariesLight   and then subfolder if desired.
