Quote - The way it would be done, would be to have Poser convert the RSR thumbs to PNG when required (just as it did since PP), the new library bit wouldn't need (or want) to deal with anything but PNGs.
You'd think it would be that easy.
Take the code from P7 that converted RSRs, compile it, and insert a conditional statement in P8, between the library mouse click and the routine opening the library, that runs the new compiled code to convert all the RSRs if there aren't any PNGs. Two lines of new code and the P8 library will open all Poser content.
I'm saying that off two decades old programming experience, but Flash, or whatever language was used to code the library, ought to be as robust as the ancient programming languages I was working with. Those with more current programming experience can correct me on this because I fully recognize I'm no expert on that.
