I'm glad that you were able to locate those files.  My recommendation is to stay away from installing anything to the Program Files and just build a separate runtime folder in a shared area to avoid complications.  If your customs are dependent on morphs or OBJ files you may need to rebuild those pathways again.  That means a lot of editing so let's hope that you are spared that major headache.  At least, nothing was permanently lost.

Digging further, the pathway that should be as follows: C:\Users\Users Name\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\MyApplication.  This is based on Windows Vista when UAC and Virtualization were first implemented.  The pathways may have changed since then due to version updates.  But at least this is a starting point.  Again, I can't pursue this further because I don't store anything original content in the Program Files folder.

I promise to follow up with my findings.

I did that. All my Poser 7 runtime came over EXCEPT my self-created content. I want to know how to move my SELF-CREATED CONTENT, please.

I would like to enter.

thanks Kimberly

This is one of the most stunning, original characters I've ever seen! Bravo, Derek!!! You continue to amaze us!

I installed P6 and added my P5 runtime and P6 won't load my P5 saved figures from my figure folder. I had James loaded in the window, tried adding a D3 figure and P6 locked up. Any suggestions?

Doc, the shadow lites are in the list. Raven, I don't know what you mean by having the ground plane "enabled." I downloaded some free sets and floors and I'm going to try that next. Thanks, guys! Ricardo

Thank you very much for the clarification, Doc! Unfortunately, it didn't work in either Firefly or Poser 4 Render. I checked my light settings and even added the depth map shadows to another light in the set to make sure. I can't imagine what I'm doing wrong. Ricardo

I tried your method, Doc, and it didn't change anything. I still can't render ground shadows. I even have the "cast shadows" box checked. Another tutorial that someone suggested via PM says that the ground shadows are simply guides and WILL NOT render, and that separate shadow files have to be made on transparencies (???) and inserted into the file. I am using a background image in my poser file, so I can't replace the background, I am just trying to get shadows to display on the ground plane. If you want, I'll do a screencap for you of my material room after I got the thing set up, just to make sure I did it right. thanks, ricardo

Doc, Thanks so much! I'll give it a whirl and post the results tomorrow! You rock! ;^) Ricardo

Thanks for trying, pigfish, but that link just took me back to the forums front page.
