Hello, if I want to install a new version of Poser, do I need to uninstall older versions first?

Nope, you can keep as many iterations of Poser installed at the same time as you want. I've done this with PP2012 and PP2014, then PP2014 and PP11 installed and I had no issues.

I agree, but just to clarify, you can only run one of each version at a time. I have had 2 different versions running at the same time, but it will affect your computer's operation and speed. So, probably best not to do that. :)

Also, if you are running poser 8 with other versions, you must start poser 8 first. All versions after Poser 8 check for available communication channels, poser 8 does not, so if poser 8 is started second it will hijack the default channels.

Thanks a lot @willyb53! That explains a lot of the problems I had before when trying my freebies in older Poser versions.

ArtofDream do you work in online marketing?

Because making a post with such a headline is one hell of an amazing click bait on a Poser forum. :D
