Tired of navigating to your own content folders?

............... then put them all in your very own library folder!

 

i feel a bit dumb but after using poser/studio for an embarassingly long time

it dawned on me that, since i always get annoyed by the 10 seconds it takes me to navigate to my props/figures/scripts folders

because they're mixed with content by others ....

 

all i have to do is put them all in a folder named Jacques, for example inside my Windows /user/Jacques folder

then i tell Daz Studio to add the Jacques  folder to the list of Poser and Studio content folders

 

in my case the exodus is done using a batch file:

if you're scared of batch files ( you should! ) then do the moves manually

Warning : Only Use This If You Understand What it does

 

md "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\scripts"md "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\Runtime\Geometries\mcasual"md "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\Runtime\Textures\mcasual"md "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\Runtime\libraries\props\mcasual"md "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\Runtime\libraries\character\mcasual"xcopy "C:\Program Files (x86)\DAZ\Studio\content\scripts\mcasual" "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\scripts\mcasual\" /excopy "C:\Program Files (x86)\DAZ\Studio\content\Runtime\Geometries\mcasual" "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\Runtime\Geometries\mcasual\" /excopy "C:\Program Files (x86)\DAZ\Studio\content\Runtime\textures\mcasual" "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\Runtime\Textures\mcasual\" /excopy "C:\Program Files (x86)\DAZ\Studio\content\Runtime\libraries\props\mcasual" "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\Runtime\libraries\props\mcasual\" /excopy "C:\Program Files (x86)\DAZ\Studio\content\Runtime\libraries\character\mcasual" "C:\Users\Jacques\Documents\DAZ 3D\Jacques\Runtime\libraries\character\mcasual\" /epause

then to avoid confusion, one should move hide or rename the original folders to some safe backup area

    Hmm, I like this idea.

    I'm not to stressed about scripts; a system disk image is a wonderful thing. :)

    maybe Backup the entire content folder before you embark on this,

    but I'm still not sure I understand what your telling me it does.
