Archiving - Making Order From Chaos

Been at Poser a while? Been purchasing files as quickly as you can pay off your credit card? Do you load every single new purchase into your Runtime as soon as you unpack the zip file just so you can play around with it? Have you noticed Poser takes longer to load up files once you've selected them from the library? Do you find yourself spending more time fishing around your Poser libraries trying to find that perfect prop, clothing item, scene or pose file?

If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, you may have a problem that's just going to continue to grow. How about answering this question: "Do you know exactly what you have loaded into your Runtime?"

If you answered "No", then, my fellow Poser-holic, it's time we clean house and rid your Runtime of all the extra fluff you don't use or need. This tutorial will cover organizing all of your Poser-related purchases and archiving them in a way that will make retrieving them for later use easy. Read on....

	by tankman on Apr 29, 2006 3:02:43 pm [homepage] Looks good - this is helpful for my efforts to organize my poser resources. Now what I need is to find a way to easily install/uninstall packages from the Runtime folder...
