Yeah.. I know mac. After all I've been using this since the first alpha ;o) However I DID find a solution, I forgot about this thread *duh* or I) would have posted it earlier... See, when you install the beta on top of an alpha it tells you that it now will delete the old alpha to avoid any problems (Can't remember the actual wording) But the point is that it DOESN'T! All my old alpha content was still present, down to the egyptians and the doggie, only with a notice that the old alpha content couldn't be used anymore :o/ Ah well, I then removed Daz Studio from my computer (in the add/remove programs) and then manually deleted the DazDS folder, which curiously enough had stayed there. So much for uninstall, heh.. I thin reinstalled DS. Even more curious, it did STILL remember where I used to keep it (on my P: drive) so I let it install there and whaddayaknow..it even still knew about the previous searche for content! Well I told it to start all over on the search (I actually DID that the first time too) and this time it works! I can now access my Poser files! :o) So I'm mostly happy. But I must admit I am ANNOYED after I've downloaded megabyte after megabyte of clothes (using a LOT of my fixed bandwidth limit) Only to find out that Daz in their wisdom did in fact NOT supply me with any CHARACTERS to put that clothes on :o( Sure now I can import my Poser versions of M3 and V3, but the DS-clothes just can't conform (or "fit" as DS calls it) to Poser characters :o( So all the clothes are USELESS. At first I thought it was an error that I hadn't got the characters, but I had 2 friends download the lot too and they had no humans either... But at least it works now :o) I just think it's slower than EVER.. the sliders are close to unresponsive and it takes ages to switch body part by clicking on them.. The alphas were better (the last alpha didn't work for me at ALL, but the others did) - at least they were faster :o/ I never thought I'd refer to Poser 5 as FAST, but it is.. compared to everything in DS...
