I'm currently using Victoria 4.0 in Poser Pro but when I use symmetry I actually get broken geometry in the leg.
1) Does anyone know what version of Victoria works in Poser Pro? Do i need 4.1 minimum or 4.2 ?
2) If you use Victoria 4.2 are models designed for Victoria 4.0 compatible with 4.2 ?

I'm using V4.2 in Poserpro, and I don't have any much problems with it. Do you have the latest service release of poserpro? And switching off external binary morphs targets is recommended.
As far as I know you can use models for 4.0 for 4.2, but not the other way around.
Be sure that before you install 4.2 that you uninstall 4.0, because that can cause some problems.

Thanks for your help. Only problem is I can't uninstall 4.0 .. I would have to manually delete the files. I'm going to install 4.2 into poser pro and hopefully it will work.
External binary is off & I have the latest service pack.
I appreciate your help.

All versions of Victoria should work in Poser Pro. Poser Pro is really a hyped up Poser 7. There are situations where symmetry will not work correctly regardless of the figure. It entirely depends on the pose.

I have Poser 5, Poser 6, and Poser Pro, and I haven't found any figure that does work in
Poser 5 and Poser 6, but doesn't work in Poser Pro. Victoria 2, Victoria 3, and Victoria 4.0,
4.1, and 4.2 all work just fine in Poser Pro.

Poser 7 and Victoria 4.0 were released almost at the same time, I think V4.0 was earlier. There were some serious problems: like the new morphtool in poser 7 which made the program crash immediately when you used it on Victoria 4.0, and the point-at parameter for the eyes, when you pointed that on the camera and you turned the head, the jaw and the teeth didn't move with the head. Most these problems have been fixed, but I can't say if it were the servicerelease for poser 7 or the updates for victoria4 that fixed it.
Anyway, Victoria 4.2 was released before Poserpro and haven't used an earlier version Victoria in it. But I didn't had any of the mentioned problems, which I did had in Poser7.

Do you still get it if you turn off IK in the legs?
