Quote - > Quote - If you dropped the Runtime from C:Program Files (x86)Smith MicroPoser 9 onto C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser Pro 2014 (or whatever) then you will have replaced new files with older versions, from P9, which probably will fail to work or to work correctly in at least some cases. Certainly if you allowed files to overwrite, but even if not anything that was in P9 and doesn't have a match in PP2014 will have been moved and may have been picked up by PP2014 even though it won't work correctly. If that isn't what you meant then ignore this.
Everything belonging to Poser 9 has been removed. Everything works untill you go into the material room- and then only if you try to remove a node, I've replaced runtimes ever since I upgraded from P5 to P6 and I've never had a problem related to that.
BUT... now that you mention it, I replaced the entire runtime- which means the python scripts would have been replaced. I'm going to take a look at that...
I think that was the problem. When I swapped the runtime, I swapped the pyhton scripts. I went back and replaced the scripts with the right ones and now everything works.
This never happened with Poser 5-9. I was able to swap the entire Runtime and go happily on my way. This was a new twist for me. But everything seems to be working- for the moment.
