Can someone confirm that Netherworks Runtime Rodent no longer works after update to 11.2.289?

I had it working previous to the official update - here is the error.

Have you tried the fix that Snarly made? AVFix

AVFix is only for scripts that are encountering difficulties with the change in Poser's version number format. It won't help with permission issues.

Normally, if you want to run scripts that interact with poserStartup.py you need to run Poser as an administrator or install Poser to a folder not protected by things like UAC.

Bummer. Oh well, was a longshot.

I wondered if that was it, given where he installed it and the error message. But he apparently had it working before the update, presumably installed in the same place?

There have been changes to Python between Poser 2014 and Poser 11. There are a ton of script that used to work no longer working under P11.

Netherworks just dropped by a few days ago. You might send him (them) a site mail and let you know what you're experiencing.

You're not alone. I'd love to get my Send in the Clones Pro working in Poser 11. It's perhaps the only script I have that doesn't work with the latest Poser version.

I haven't tried to actually use it, but Runtime Rodent does start in Poser 11.2.296 for me. Don't know if it matters but I have the Poser program installed in C:/Poser/Poser 11 and the content is installed in the D: drive.

I dont know if it matters, but the OP is running the file from program files and getting a permission denied error

Thanks for your ideas. Just to point out people I'm not a newbie to Poser, I have been around since version 3, so I have fair idea of it's workings, Runtime Rodent worked in all versions since it's release back when RDNA was still around, it is only the mentioned update that it hasn't worked with, what I was after is someone to confirm the problem before I took it to Netherworks

I am a bit wary about going to the 3/10 update at least until this issue is resolved one way or another.as it hasn't shown up in Poser as an official update .

From the error it looks like it is called from two places (in particular, see the Poser2014 Runtime line on d:). Try to see if you have only one copy, and that it is in the Program Files folder where you have Poser's exe installed?

I'm not sure why that would cause an issue, when it didn't prior to this, also I don't have a D:PoserPro 2014. Also there has never been an issue of running any python scripts in multiple versions of Poser, I have always just copied over the Python directory to the new version and kept them in the previous version, as I always needed a couple of versions for testing.

I have sent a message to Netherworks, so we will see where that leads us.
