Hi. Ive changed from WinXP to Mac OS X. btw, e-frontier have made me a good price for upgrading my Poser win-version to Mac. Poser runs fine until Ive copied my old runtime folder... yep, from the win-version... and also made the updates content and sr1. Are the .cr* files from the win-version different to macs? Any help would be appreciated. TIA urig

Hi, which version of poser. if it's 5 or 6 you probably won't need to do anything. just put your old runtime into your new computer. one word of caution though is when you drop a mac folder runtime into your poser folder it will overwrite your previous runtime. whearas windows will merge subfolders of same name mac folders and not overwrite. be very careful. now kaveman here at rendero has made a software called ditto to merge folders or you could get zippit - an inexpensive shareware which i think will extract your folders to other folders. i like ditto myself. anyway im me if you need help. love esther

thanks, esther. That was the problem. I didnt realised that OSX has overwritten the original runtime-folder... New install and hand-copied all older files...
