Subject: Moving Poser 4 Library Files to Poser 5

Hello. I just got Poser 5 and ran it successfully. Is there any way for me to move my library files into Poser 5 so that I can use all the props and figures I have gained over my time using P4 safely and quickly? I moved a few figures over and some of them do not work. A few show up as options in my figures menu, but when I select "apply", I get an invisible figure or it seems like P5 crashes/freezes. Thanks.

whatever you do don't move the poser4 runtime or any files in it to the poser5 runtime, Poser5 doesn't like it & may even be broken by doing that. Open the library palette in Poser5 & click on the up arrow till you get to a section with just 2 entries (Poser5 & downloads) hit the + at the bottom, then use the search box that comes up to find the poser4 runtime, select it & hit the ok button & everything will be ready & waiting for you to start using :)

Oops. :) Well, thanks for the advice. I should have asked before moving things over. Now to figure how to move them back :(.
