More small size (Double precision reducer.)
Let's analyze...
What is "double precision" for? It is clear that for CAD/CAM products it is essential, since they are exact mechanical parts: 1 millimeter/inches is not enough, but, perhaps, a value of "0.9876124553636". But I speak from my experience as an industrial designer, where it is necessary.
Not so in 3D, where we are going to make a render or animation...
This set of tools (only for Windows), reduces to two decimal places "EVERYTHING".
That is, from "0.9876124553636" it resolves to "0.98".
It is an experiment done in the "Perl" language, where I include the code and an .exe.
It makes a drastic change (in size of file size...), so it must be checked before replacing in the final "Content folder"..., but hardly perceptible to vision of final render.
ALL files must be unzipped. This can be seen opening them with notepad++, or similar. If it cannot be "read" humanly, it is compressed. For that, there is in the "package" a gzip.exe...
The formula is a bit complicated if you don't know Perl, that's why I offer the native code... If you want to try with other "ASCII" file types, in UTF-8, you only have to change the extension in the first line...
And, ALWAYS, to populate/check from a different folder (To be added in Daz's path...).
BEWARE!!! This dramatic reduction can affect the position of hands and fingers (especially if they are close to the body...).
For Props, enviros or dsf, variations may affect not too much, but your hard disk will thank you...
Be happy, a humble servant does what he can...

IT´S A EXPERIMENT!!!
