Strange seeing you in these here parts. ;) Yup, completely new territory for me :) Just be certain to deselect "Use file compression" and "Use External Binary Morph Targets" in the Poser 6 General Preferences before saving the props to the library! OK, will do! Also, don't use any new features such as P5/6 Material nodes - stick with image maps and Poser Surface colors. Don't use AO or IBL/Point lights. All my props will use regular bitmaps for color and bump, nothing fancy. There will be Poser 5/6 sections added to the file and this will raise a dialog in older versions, but they are ignored anyway. :) I compared a P6 file with a P4 one and the P6 file had a lot more information. Good to hear this info is ignored. *Also, make sure to get P3dOExplorer if you need to convert between *.rsr and png. A quick Google found it for me and P3dOExplorer is now installed. If you need a beta-tester, I have Poser 4/PP/5/6 on both Windows and MacOS as well as DAZ|Studio 1.0. I will contact you ;) If you have a beta tester (such as kuroyume here) who has Poser 4, just get them to save a P4 version of the prop. If you're not making use of the advanced material options, that will be the most compatible version. OK, but a P6 prop will still function as expected in earlier versions, right? /Anders
