Thanks Byrdie, that seems to have mostly worked for the freak. Haven't gotten Hiro working yet tho.

The scaling in Freak's arms seems to be broken. It doesn't scale the arms up the way it does the rest of his limbs, so I have to manually scale each one up to 115%. Is this common or is it something likely wrong on my end still? And the default texture remains M4 so I have to load the Freak skin from the pose library. No freak skins in the materials library where they're supposed to be.  

 

Apologies for the slight thread derailment - I just thought it could be useful for others that might have problems getting M4 or other Gen4 figures working in newer versions of Poser, since this is an issue that's popped up several times since P9 and win7+. So answers to these questions might be useful in an M4 runtime thread.
