I copied parmatic from my poser 7 runtime into my poser pro runtime. I have gotten a parmatic updater error message with a traceback error. Has anyone else had this problem?

What's the error message ?

It's a trace back error - I didn't save the message. I'm getting the same problem with real skin shader so I think it's an issue with Pro and old python scripts.

I need to see the error. Might be easy to fix.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)

Intersted to know too...

I'm trying to figure out how the parmatic error occurred. Once it occurs again, I will be sure to save the error and post it here. On a side note for python scripts, I've found that there is a problem with the real skin shader sets, but stewer's turn off texture filtering still works.

These are the error messages that I'm getting:

Ah yes. I remember this. It's easy to fix.
The problem is that there are occasionally certain wierd "actor" props that are not really body parts, but they seem to be, according to the rules as stated by EF or SM or whoever.
Anyway, there are such objects that should have a material list, but when you ask for it, it barfs and gives not an empty list, but instead a "None" object.
This is becoming more and more annoying as more and more of these show up. One of the other Python script gurus (philc maybe) showed recently how he had to check like 20 exceptional cases to get this business to stop breaking one of his scripts.
It's happening a lot more with Poser 7 than it ever did with Poser 6.
I'll get an update out to you soon. Hopefully tomorrow.

Thanks for looking into it :)

I have the same problem with those 'special' props.
Didn't tested it, but couldn't be possible to use the 'Visible In render' ? I think most of the problematic actors aren't visible in renders...
