You win. I thought I had so many but the finder tells:

Code: Select all

2,13 GB op schijf (2 112 674 615 bytes) voor 227 onderdelen
On the mac an oxp counts as a single file, so that explains the difference with your file number while I 'only' have 227.

Although I have an 'unused' folder in my addOns were I put the oxp in that I don't want to be active. It contains about 60, so that must be subtracted. And on windows, such oxps inside a subfolder would still be active.

Only 20 OXPs here (counting Griff's as one) and my AddOns is 252 MB (mostly eye-candy).

Not much to see here:

Code: Select all

408,4 MB (399.262.393 Byte) für 146 Objekte
Only 102 of these objects are installed OXPs, the rest are either loose folders (AIs, Config, etc.) or disabled OXPs in a subfolder.

Still, I'm a little astonished that I have so many OXPs installed. Without checking I would've estimated a much smaller number (in the 50s, perhaps).

No, they're safe in there. Like you I store unused ones inside AddOns/Unused/ which is why the folder is bloated. Povray Planets is 2GB, and the still zipped download files are in there, so I expected the total to be over 4GB, but 6GB surprised me.

Running 128 oxp's here. Folder is 5,06GB as it is also a folder for texturing (Famous Planets etc) so many duplicates and also a lot of disabled oxp's which I renamed to .tmp.
