@bagginsbill,

Quote - I followed your link to svdl's freestuff, downloaded the script, and ran it, no problem, in PP2012.

Did you do the same or are you trying to run some old copy you already had?

Yes, I downloaded a fresh copy, and installed in the ScriptsMenu folder under the primary (executive) Runtime.

No matter if I try to run it via File > Run Python Script, or via the Python Scripts menu, all I get is the message "This script requires Poser 6 SR2 or later". Then nothing else happens.

I had heard a lot of talk in the forums about old scripts not working in PP2012, so I assumed that was the issue. If it works for you in PP2012, then it looks like I have a different issue. I should probably add that I have not installed any updates to PP2012 yet, and that I am running 32 bit under Win XP SR3.

@markschum,

Quote - You could check if that file has been written.

Yes, the file has been written to the path:

C:Poser Pro 2012RuntimeuiSpawnCharacterText.xml

PP2012 is installed to the path:

C:Poser Pro 2012PoserPro.exe

The script is installed under that same path in ScriptsMenu.

The main content runtime for the installation is:
