Hi all,
I had a program to batch convert folders of Poser Runtime files to use more easily within the Daz folders. It generated DSA files that referenced the original Poser files. Very simple to run. I used it in 2022, but have since changed computers and cannot figure out what I used before. Any ideas? This the code it generates:
var myfile = 'Runtime/libraries/Character/Michael4example.pp2';
var contentMgr = null;
var nDirType = DzContentMgr.AllDirs;
var sPath = (contentMgr = App.getContentMgr()).findFile(myfile,nDirType);
var oContentMgr = App.getContentMgr();
oContentMgr.openFile(sPath, true);

Could you be thinking about https://www.daz3d.com/m4-skins-batch-converter-to-genesis-2-male-s?
Otherwise I would check out DraagonStorm's or Code66's stores as they seem to have the most conversion offerings.

I do not recall such a utility that will handle any kind of pz2 file. The legacy converter does not convert the poser MAT pz2, and the advanced material converter requires that files are already in duf format.
I needed something to convert poser MAT pz2 files into duf, so I could apply them from the DAZ part of the content libraries (ie they could be stored with the relevant duf files of the clothing or prop).
In the end I wrote a small java program that create djl files that point to where the pz2 file is in the poser library hierarchy. This can then be placed along side the duf files in the DAZ directories and applied in the normal way.
