I thought I'd ask this here, since the focus is on M4.
I just bought Freak 4 and Hiro 4 during the M4 sale at DAZ, and am having problems getting them to function.
So I decided to do a complete M4 reinstall.
I use Win 7 64-bit, and have had issues with M4 and V4 for a while now off and on. Seems that when I upgraded to PP2012 the method of getting them to install correctly was creating a dummy file in the top level of the runtime under my documents. M4 installed fine using this method. Then installing his morphs failed and gave me an error stating that the morphs have to be installed to the same directory as poser's exe in order for them to function properly. So apparently it was not recognizing this dummy file as the proper exe. I deleted that file and replaced it with a new one that the installer did recognize, and the morphs installed. But they won't load. I can load M4 but when injecting the morphs it only creates the empty morph sets. The Morphs++ drop-down just gives me a list of more empty drop-down categories.
So can someone explain to me what I've done wrong? I'd like to get these figures functioning correctly in PP2012/PP2014. I have a saved copy of M4 in a different runtime with all his morphs++ morphs saved into the CR2 but I'd rather not have to rely on this, and the freak and hiro morphs won't load into that one either, so it doesn't do me any good in that regard.
ETA: Yes I ran the M4 innitialize script after each component was installed.
Are there certain files that need to be installed in the main Poser Pro runtime under program files? I figure this is where the problem is.
