do i need help yet ?

We all need help my friend....lmao. Mine tops out at 30 gigs but that's only a fraction of what I actually have bought ;o). Add in all that and it would be up over a hundred gigs easy...hehe.

You're close. GB is an interesting number, but with gigantic texture sets, it's not really a direct measure of how many things you ignore in your runtime, but more about how big they are. A hundred texture files can be the same size as 10,000 poses you never use.

So I think the file count is more indicative of how addicted to content you are. 169 thousand files is pretty good. But...

During testing of the Poser 8 library, I had users with 1 million files.

Oh i know ,

this is only on like 20 DVD's out of well over 50 4.7G DVD's i own...crazy what we buy.

and i guarentee you i havent used close to half of what i own back in the day when i used Poser even.

I dont even use Poser anymore, went with DS and export into obj to Vue or Cinema 4D.

WOW, i wish there was a way to calculate the money i have spent. Maybe when i retire and my kids move out i will have time :D

@ **bagginsbill

I clean my runtime weekly, get rid of all the "overhead" such as readmes, and readmenot's andall the other blah blah blah that a lot of "ego maniacs" in the Poser content world use to be first, or not forgotten.

And this does NOT include what I bought for Clark, Aiko3, and all the other marginal characters that I finally decided to purge a few months back. It was about 1.1 TB back then.

And yes... I do delete all the readme's and other garbage files. This is CONTENT!

And I've STILL got $%#^ on my wishlist!!!!!

The definition of an addiction is much more simple then you think. Do you have a folder-directory on your computer named "runtime" ? :ohmy:

I do have a definitive answer to the question "What defines addiction", but don't have time to give it now because I need to get more coffee, chocolate biscuits, and a good stiff drink (but at least my Runtime is only three and a half GB)!

Coffee and chocolate...ooooohhhhh.....

Laurie

Hm, if you had to step up and show yours in high school locker rooms i assume you went to a seminary school LOL

I have 221 gigs of external runtime, no DS files and/or readmes in them I store the readme elsewhere, I did reduce my spending recently unless something really sweeps me off my feet I kinda figure I have everything by now :P

Quote - Coffee and chocolate...ooooohhhhh.....

Laurie

Single malt scotch and high cocoa chocolate.  Much better.  :D

 6.30gb - 49,610 Files, 3902 folders.

that's all folks! (now, if you want my modeling folder... stuff thats not in poser as yet, as made by me... thats 21gb)

Well if THAT be the case Kaibach...then i have at least 200G myself...

"PROJECTS"

LOL

When was the last time any of us stepped into a library to read some King/Koontz/Rice ?

I have WAY more than that.  Then again... look at my registered date and I think I started on Poser 3...

How do you guys keep all of this sorted, and remember what you have and where it is?!!

Addiction: Lay's potato chips said "Bet you can't eat just one." thirty odd years ago, and that's all it took. The yellow bag is my nemesis...

WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU "PEOPLE" TALIKNG ABOUT...

and i use the term "people" loosely, cause it seems .5 of you are not breeding...i KNOW  what a fucking addiction is. I didnt mean bags of anything good god...

I have smoked crack, i have snorted heroine i am recently a non smoker... HOLY FUCK... it was a joke... like something EVERYONE missed...

who goes to libraries anymore ?

i do like my Lays though L

(;

How about addiction including folk who acquire items (commercial and free), and don't install everything immediately ?

And then months later, they realise they have several external hard drives' worth of installation files....

Well put, infinity.
My 1.5 Terrabyte external has well over a gig or so of installation files for poser and ds as well as free stuff I picked up along the way.

Before I had the external, I used to store them all on 7 USB/flash drives.

Such people are compulsive Digital Hoarders.
which describes probably 75% of the DAZ "platinum Club "members
any way I recently  Deleted My local copy of my aged P4 runtime and am only keeping the P6 runtime on my Laptop.

Cheers

Addiction is when it's no longer fun but you're still doing it because you're, well, addicted :)

Proud to be an addict.

I have to learn how to keep separate runtimes on a DVD instead of on my drive.  Is it possible with Poser 6?  Is there a tutorial for that?

 I think collecting things qualifies as an addiction.  I collect junk.  It fills the garage and storage sheds as well as my hard drives.  When I say junk, I do not mean heroin. 

I love libraries, but read mostly digital books anymore.

Sorry to troll, but geez, calm down already. If you ask a nebulous question like this you should be big enough to accept whatever comments people care to give, literal or not, without going into a flat, vulgar spin about it.

Here is my  Poser version  which is running on my  company -provided laptop .....

I probably should not have this  on  there
