One more on BBEdit... it looks like it does not respect the original type/creator settings if you use "Save as" instead of "Save". 1) To open a Poser library file, either drag it onto BBEdit, or select "Open" and set the popup selector to "Any File". 2) If you use "Save" it will stay as a Poser library file. 3) If you use "Save as" it will turn into a BBEdit TEXT file (actually it will turn into whatever you select in the popup, but not a Poser file any longer). In this case your new name must be (...whatever...).cr2 and you must re-run Maconverter over it. Alternatively you can duplicate the .cr2 first, give it a new name, open the copy with BBEdit and then use "Save" - this way you don't need Maconverter again. All file types needed for Poser are handled by Maconverter (this is the first option on top) - as long as the files have valid names (eg. they will work on PC) they will be setup without any need of further manual editing. One more note on Macinstaller - it is just as picky with the file types as Poser... I know that this might be a bit questionable, but otherwise it would install files which wouldn't work afterwards in Poser - so I gave it exactly the same "view" for files that Poser has.
