    @cantonesejim :

    The flashback down memory lane you posted was a beautiful jolt this morning! I spent the pts on the package even though I have all of it, but who knows? I might even shake the dust off of my ancient P4/P5 Runtime just for the occasion.

    For those who haven't been around that long, BAT-LAB was among the earliest Japanese Poser freebie makers who put usable deformation morphs into the clothing and hair that he made and passed around (along with Kozaburo, who practically pioneered transmapped hair.) While not as popular or versatile as Uzlite and Hongyu, he was among the first... and he deserves the kudos.

    Don't worry there's more to come as i'm going through some old CD backups from my youth (can't believe i've been playing with poser since i was in Junior high and i got a copy of P3 as a freebie on 3DWorld or one of those types of mags to promote P4PP) Tons more early stuff to come as i upload things here to keep everything archived for posterity and try and see what other lost stuff i can rustle up with torrent scraping.

    If anyone know anyone that has an old or expansive poser collection they are willing to share just send them my way everything I have will be eventually on here or on revived torrents/magnet links depending on sourcing.

    I wonder too because I don't see many peers from there. Probably just my ISP, AT&T is horrible with filtering and NAT. Just waiting on Google to finish fibering up the neighborhood.

    are people still using foxter? i downloaded a bunch from there a few years ago when many links were still active but they're long gone now. I haven't been back much though. CGPeers and CGPersia have mostly dried up on older or non-daz specific stuff but i'll see if anyone there can help as i want as much historical poser stuff archived here and throughout the web as that is my ultimate goal in all of this.

    been trying to get back on CGpersia for years. Ever since I switched my OS, lost my pass, and eventually gave up. Do they ever allow registration these days? CGPeers is pretty sparse nowadays.

    @Cantonesejim - "..it’s been a long while since i’ve seen registration open".
    Yep it has. I was once a member of CGpersia but like jon kim I lost my details a long time ago. It was where I DL Vue, 3dsMax and C4D stuff when I used to use them. I've got 100s of GB of old Poser content going back to Posette. I've shared some of it here privately for those with specific things they wanted. Been tempted to get rid of it all because it's outdated and I never use it these days. If you need something specific from that era then PM me.

    OK @Ethiopia. It's all on an old HD in the wardrobe and I don't plan to do anything drastic soon.
    Someone has PM'd me already about some stuff. Archiving is a great idea.
    Enjoy your hols.

    sadly, just like with many private trackers these days, it’s now invite only either through other users, or through interviews.

    Yeah, torrenting is efficient but it requires too much on the uploader side that most people don't want to take the time in curating all that and keep up with seeding and everything. Emule still has a bunch but the people with full downloads of all the cool stuff are very sporadic and have long queues because there's so many leechers nowadays. I need to get back on there and see what i can drag up in the last 6 months since the SSD with my incomplete folder died.

    i wasn't able to find much once i tried, but you never know if it's just the providers not having those groups in their archives.
