Changed Computers

I upgraded my computer to a new 8 core system and can't wait to render something, but I'm anal and my files aren't showing up in Daz or Carrara. I used the Windows transfer utility and everything is where it should be.

I installed Carrara and Daz on the new system. I still need to reinstall my plugins. But where is the file(s) that catagorized where all my runtimes and catagorizing I had did on the old system is, so I can move it over to the new one? I don't want to to all that again.


Thanks

Dan

    To get your categories, on the old computer go to Content Library > options menu (rectangle with horizontal lines in the upper corner) > Content DB Maintenance > Export User Data. That will create a file with your categories in Runtime\Support
    On the new computer, Content DB Maintenance > Re-Import Metadata will let you reimport your user data as well.
    If you have a lot of categorized content it can take a long time to export and import, so be patient if it doesn't appear to be doing anything.
