Problems with transfering file over to another computer

We never allowed for the time we would loose with problems we had transferring files over. It was a nightmare after setting a new project and transferring files over we still had problems with the textures. We had to go through textures individually and re locate path so computer could allocate correct texture. We had problems with transferring the textures over for the floor as It as each tile was modeled separately. This takes up memory and polygons and is advised not to model this way. The way I would have done it was in one plane and extruded faces then add the texture. I would have also added bump map to get a 3d effect with the texture. However Nath and Guy did not apply these as they didn't have enough time.
