Ah, didnt I say folks hate double encoding ? - Im using the standard US/english version of Poser PP and P5 and the "$tahlratte" folders work fine. But of course feel free to rename them to "stahlratte" if they cause you any trouble. As long as the two object lines in the cr2 point to the right folder, it doesnt matter what the folders are named. Sigh, I almost feared that there are different versions of the MilGirls objects out there. I ran into the very same propblem when I tried to decode a Stephanie I hybrid. Two different versions and I had of course the wrong one. If anyone has a solution for this, Im open to suggestions. stahlratte
