Title: Poser formatting
Post by: tploy on December 15, 2008, 12:12:19 AM
 
It has come to my attention that there seems to not be a standardized hierarchy within the poser structure. Therefore if producers could follow a somewhat standardized file structure. It may make it easier for users to locate the differing props for use in their graphic designs. If object files were placed within subsets by the designers then each design would be easier to locate by its producer. An example, file structure would be:

poser/runtime/graphics/producer/object file.

For characters and example file structure would be:

poser/runtime/libraries/character/platform/character name/producer/item.

For poses an example file structure would be:

poser/runtime/libraries/poses/platform/character name/producer/pose.

For injection morphs an example file structure would be:

poser/runtime/library/poses/platform/character name/producer/injection morphs.

If this similar structure were followed by all producers. It would make organization of libraries much neater and easier for users. As it is now, different producers set their own hierarchy, and when their products are imported into poser their various graphics are randomly placed within the library . Thus when a user attempts to organize their library, often times, pieces get misplaced.

Thank you for your time and allowing me to vent my spleen, good day.
