Is there a way to transfer all of the libraries that I have in Poser 6 to Poser 7 without having to install each one individually? Can I just copy the whole Poser 6 Runtime into Poser 7's Runtime without messing anything up?

Thanks in advance,
Tankred

The best solution is just to point P7 to your P6 runtime using the Add Runtime dialog.  I'm sure Acadia has a link on how to do this since I'm off to work in a few minutes.

My P6 is linked from P7 at the moment but once P7 is "fixed" with SR1 I will be moving my P6 stuff over. I've always used one runtime, I'm not a big fan of multiple runtimes and I have tried both!
That said I wouldn't recommend a "pick up and dump" approach, you will need to take some care in how you do it but it can be done, I have done this since version 5 and I have migrated some stuff already to make sure it can be done but the rest will be done later!

one further "yes vote" for leaving all runtimes where they are. I have 'em on 3 separate drives and it seems to work o.k. what I also heard was that moving the default P7 runtime will cause problems, but of course nobody would wanna do that.

OK, thanks, but how do you link P7 to the P6 Runtime. I have never had to do this before so I want to get it right and I am sure it is simple and staring me in the face! :biggrin:
