I recently searched my computer for stuff just taking space, and measured all mayor folders. I found out that my TGC folder is over 10Gb:

Wow, Sweden!

On this installation, where I don't have DBC, FPSC or T3DGM installed, and DGDK projects are stored in a different folder, it seems I have:
43 692 files and
3 399 folders, averaging up to
6.39Gb.

Last time I checked I had a 20GB folder, but it wasn't only TGC, so I don't know if it counts...

I just have a programming folder that has DBP, DBC, Blitz, Pure, Python, Java, VS projects, Pascal, C++, Amazon libraries, other misc programming-related files.

With 41,641 files and 5,107 folders, you'd think it took up a lot of space.... 1.6GB, that's it. More files than most posted here and by far less space used compared to others of similar file amounts.

well my TGC folder is 234 MB

But I keep my DB games on E: and that folder is ...6.08 GB

I have found that formatting a computer nearly always is only needed on C: So it is safer to keep games out of there.

My TGC Folder is 6.97 GB,with 28,833 files and 2917 folders.It contains only FPSC X9 with a boatload of custom stuff and FPSC X10 which i dont ever use

I'll check my TGC file later, but I felt the need to say, my main hard drive is 75gb.

The size of mine is only 534 MB. My real DBPro folder is 988 MB, though.

I only have two mostly full 32 GB drives.

1.05 gig (+ wherever my brief dabblings in DGDK are and all my installs for everything)

Reasonably new install (a couple of months) so I still don't have much on here but I did copy a fair bit of old stuff over from my old DBC folder.

On the bright side, my funny pictures folder is now up to 190 mb - not much in comparison, but there's a lot of stuff in there and it's building at a rate of knots. I really need to find something more productive to do with my life

7.58 GB. Although I'm not very organized and that number is the total of all my TGC related stuff, which can be found spread throughout about 4 and a half different folders.

Also, all this talk of low hard drive capacity is making me feel slightly nauseous.

All anti aliasing and no anisotropic filtering makes Jack a dull texture.

Depends on what you refer to as a TGC folder, however. I have plenty of random 20 line projects to test my wrapper. And then I have random C++ libraries lying around. As well as my random projects that together are about 2gb in size.

I had a 560 gig hard drive, but I flooded it and am now down to... 260g?

But anyways, my TGC folder is... holy schnitz, didn't realise how big it was I don't know why it says it was created in May, I've had lots of TGC products before, like DB, but that was on my old computer, but anyways

See screen attached...
