Runnig other scripts? Can't remember. I don't use Python that much except for Bagginsbills's vss scripts. I just reloaded Poser, and ran vss.... no problem. Then my test.py script, with various encodings..... no luck. I'm going to find, and download a dedicated python editor, and see what happens. First, I'm going to take a python script from poser that works, and erase a line of code, and then retype it in, and the run it. Just to see what happens. I'll save a backup first of course.
