it looks like ds3 legacy files are mixed in with a single download.

what do i delete to get rid of the legacy files?

the camera says ds3?
there are duf materials in the poser materials folder.
there more mat files under the poser poses folder

can i delete the whole poser\poses folder?
i don't want to accidentally delete the lightning shaders i would need for ds4.

thanks. :)


so, if it's not a duf file, it's a legacy file?

    does using a UE load the light? or do i load the UE2, then apply the UE draft, etc?

    The DS4.5 files are all .duf. You can delete the subfolders under Light and Cameras labeled DS3, and the mat poses in Pose. The light sets in the product include UE, then apply the UE Quality settings.

    Thanks for answering Mike :) I missed someone was asking something about the Lab...sorry about that.

    Misty: Sorry about the DS3 files...atm we support DS3, DS4, Poser 6 and up (we still have some customers back on DS 3 so we include the files for it). Generally you only have to support the current version of things but we like to see how crazy we can make ourselves and apparently everyone else too *blush* Sorry about that LOL This next pack though we may go straight DS4 support and save some hair pulling on everyone's part LOL

    Uhm ... I am on DS4.6, so it doesn't matter to me personally. But I am sorry for those whose computers simply aren't up to running DS4 and up.
    You could follow the PC item route to make a zip for DS4.6 and a zip for "Legacy" files?

    Thanks for the feedback, not sure if it fit our workflow to do so, but Ill look into it. Given the sheer size of the sets, I'm not positive it wouldn't cause more confusion etc :( but I'll definitely consider it and see what that would effect etc workflow wise :)
