And confirmation that it's got nothing to do with compressed files. Even with the OBJs extracted from the OBZs the same problem occurs.

Curious thing though - why doesn't it ask me to locate spotLite.obj when I do 'Add a light' after 'Go back to Pose room ?

Also if, after doing 'Add a light' I change it to Infinite, Diffuse IBL, or Area Light it does that without any problem. It's specifically the Point Light that throws a wobbly. 

(No, the default scene only contains two types of lights - three Spots and one Area Light. So it's not that Poser had already loaded the othe light OBJs, at least not via the default scene)

I tried to follow these steps and problem: search=None means one question for each object present in the default scene, and the same question coming back and coming back and coming back and... pew...
I'm stopping there the test, sorry :smile:

The very first runtime for Poser11, in its Runtimes collection is its own "Poser 11 Content"
