I still use P4 all the time. I don't care if an author includes RSRs. I just use P3DO Explorer to solve this problem.

  1. Install P3DO Explorer and the Poser Pro Pack (both free, both here in Free Stuff, now at v 1.9.2.)

  2. Open P3DO Explorer and browse to the section of your library where the "P4 Unfriendly" content resides (Poser 4Runtimelibrariescharacter... for example)

  3. You will see all the content, with thumbnails, as P3DO explorer can read both PNGs and RSRs.

  4. Select any the content that has no RSR file (or just select everything.)

  5. From the Tools menu, select "Convert Rsr2Png..." The dialog comes up.

  6. Under "Apply To", choose "Selected Files" (or "All Files" if you wish.)

  7. Under "Convert From", choose ".Png to .Rsr".

  8. If you don't want all those PNGs hanging around bulking up your P4 runtime, you can go under "Options" and check the box for "Remove source file after conversion".

  9. Click OK and your shrugging dorks will vanish into the aether, to be replaced by glorious, full-color thumbnails!

EDIT: I see they've finally fixed the "double line break" issue with the new forum editor!
