My Poser 5 jams on loading scenes or saved character combinations with several characters (say, a few fully-equipped divers) which my Poser 4 (4.0.3 without PPP) always handled successfully. That is unacceptable for me with the sort of scene that I make. How can I make my Poser 5 accept scenes with more characters in? It jammed on:- - A character which is 6 divers sitting in an inflatable boat. The boat is a character. - A .PZ3 file with 3 frogmen riding in my new subskimmer prop and 3 sport divers in the water (as at this link). -- My Poser 4 handled both successfully. When I use my Poser 4, after I installed Poser 5, Poser 4 comes up with the stage size and lights at factory default, and also all 3 lights turned off, regardless of what is specified in the ---.pz3 file, and the ground prop does not appear until I have clicked round a bit. That is likely due to Poser 5's workings interfering with Poser 4. Is there any way to cure this? Or do I have to uninstall Poser 5 and write its cost off to experience? I just tried to call my subskimmer scene .PZ3, using Poser 4. Up came an empty stage set to factory default but with all 3 lights switched off. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I suspect that I will have to uninstall Poser 5 and then re-install Poser 4 to overwrite the damage that the Poser 5 caused.
