Got it. The post by TGuyus, who said:

Quote - My Poser 6 runtime is set up on a separate drive, in a directory named "P6 Runtime."  When I try to link to that runtime in Poser 8, it returns an error saying "That folder doesn't seem to be a runtime folder.  Choose a new runtime folder to add."  

Looks to me like TGuyus does not understand what you do, when you said:

Quote - mine are setup as Runtime and whatever category it is, then underneath that folder is the real folder called runtime and everything that follows according to Poser logic. 

Since Poser 7 SR3, the ability to have a runtime NOT called runtime was dropped.

You can have a parent folder for it, named how you like, but it must CONTAIN a folder called Runtime. This is not a new behavior of Poser 8, but of Poser 7.

The rule is, you need a wrapper folder and it can be called anything you like. In that must be a folder called Runtime. The name of the wrapper will be shown in the GUI. This is Poser 7 SR3 and Poser 8 and Poser Pro behavior.

Your runtimes will work fine, because you have them structured correctly.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
