Now available for sale exclusively at my website, and when approved for sale, sold exclusively here at the Marketplace.Ask yourself- how many times have you downloaded a figure from the Internet, loaded it into Poser, only to get a "FigureRes Geometry: Runtime:Geometries:fairy:blwings.obj not found" error? And, then, of course, when you click the Ok button (to clear the message), Poser looks for this file anyway- taking 3 or 4 minutes (or longer!) to try to find it AND then gives you a message about how Poser is "Low on memory" (and proceeds to delete a figure from your scene!). How were you supposed to know that this figure even used this "obj" file? Wouldn't it have been better if you had known about this ahead-of-time, before you tried to load the figure? Well, now you can- just use the Poser Object Organizer Program to see the "insides" of Poser files! That's right- by clicking on figure files, you can 1) see what obj file and image files are used, and 2) see where those files are actually located on your hard drive, and 3) automatically fix the figure file to "point" to the "obj" file's actual location. What does this mean, to you, the average user? It means no more "missing file" errors- you will know ahead-of-time if you haven't installed all the needed files.
Have you ever tried to clean up your Poser files? Have you gone through your figures Library and removed everything you'll never use? What about the supporting obj files- those are probably still on your hard drive, taking up space. How would you know what figures (if any) even use these "obj" files? Well, now you can- just use the Poser Object Organizer Program to scan through your RuntimeLibraries folder and find every figure that uses the obj file... if nothing's found, the obj file is safe to delete!
Have you ever looked in your RuntimeGeometries folder to see what's there? If it's anything like mine, you could have TONS of sub-folders... and most of them have odd names. Wouldn't it be nice if you could reorganize the folders and files to YOUR liking? Well, now you can- just use the Poser Object Organizer Program to move the obj file to another folder AND change the figure file's reference.
Have you ever wanted a copy of the list of all the files in a folder, but couldn't figure out how? Sure, you could do a screen shot, but you're limited to how many things fit on the screen (and the fact that a screen shot is a graphical image). Now you can finally print the contents as plain text- simply click on a folder, click the Print button, and the list of folders and files will be saved to a text file- ready to be copied and pasted into other documents. You can even print the listing of all sub-folders within the selected folder!
When you download a "zip file" package, are you tired of having to place every file in its "recommended" location- usually in folder names like:
RuntimeLibrariesFiguresArtistNameCharacterNamefigure.cr2
RuntimeTexturesArtistNameCharacterNameCharacterName.jpg
Yes, this is a good method to remember the artist who created the item, but wouldn't it be nice if you could put these files wherever YOU like, and then change the cr2 file to reference the files in the new location? Well, now you can- just extract the files to a folder of your choice and use the Poser Object Organizer Program to adjust the cr2 file to correctly reference the files in their new locations.
(Of course, cr2 files must still go in a sub-folder under the "RuntimeLibrariesFigures" folder and images must go in a sub-folder under the "RuntimeTexture" folder. But, which sub-folder should be up to YOU- the user. After all, it's YOUR computer!)
What it is:
The Poser Object Organizer Program is a Windows application that combines basic Poser-type file-editting features with the familiar "tree-view" of Windows Explorer.
