Another IMVU web tool perhaps?

Like it would generate the kbs of each item in your inventory or each item you equip. Just so it's easier to know which product is taking up the most space.

Maybe this would be helpful since a lot of rooms limits people's kbs. And I'm just sick of having to use trial and error to see which one to take off and keep.

This is a very good idea, I agree it would be useful especially in DJ rooms and clubs, where there's highest KBs.

I believe the product page displays the size in kb of the product, you could check that for each product you have equipped.

I know wat ya trying to say.. its better to have a look at once on all the products for kbs.. rather thn going for each items.. I think there should a software wich can help to check / recheck our kbs depends on outfit / room. would be a great help specially for DJ :panda45: / Room mods to help noobies / new users :rocket_croc: .

Nope, it is incorrect 90% of the time sadly. The true kbs value is almost never shown. Kbs are all added up on the product page most times.

It adds up like:
Imvu parent product + derived product.

If the product is derivable, then it would be added up like:
Imvu parent product + derived product + derivers product.

But when you load it into the room the excess kbs are not counted. The kbs system has been broken for soooooo many years...you'd THINK that with decorated rooms being so popular that they would have fixed this issue by now, but NOPE. It is a headache for people that create decorated rooms alot.

Well knowing all that I wonder what our tool would even do.

I could create something that lets you type in a bunch of pids and calculate the total kbs but it would use the same kb as the product page therefore being unreliable and typing them in manually would be inconvenient.

What if it pinged the HTTP header Content-Length for each individual asset on IMVU's server 1 at a time ... you could use the c# WebClient's header response to get the header data without actually ripping the assets, so no funny pirate business, for each asset adding the content length to the total kb? Total kb being the output. Or, if it has to be a web tool, you can do the same thing with phpcurl, access the php curl header content length.

For input, it could use a products in scene URL, which contains all of the pids comma delimited. It would simply require the user to have their outfit visible.
