Hello there ;)

I have Poser 8 freshly installed (comming from Poser 6) and seem to run in a bit of problem with external runtimes while importing in Vue complete.

Most of my runtime is located in:
C:program files (x86)e-frontierposer 6runtime

but some of my new runtimes (and all of them in the future) will be located under:
d:runtimes

At the moment, in "d:runtimes", there are 2 sub runtimes (cookie and scenes).

When I used Poser 6, I could import Cookie with no problem into Vue. Just by saving the pz3 and importing in vue, it would find everything back.

Now, I tried the same in Poser 8 and Vue couldn't find Cookie anymore ( or any other thing outside of the "c:program files (x86)e-frontierposer 6runtime" folder.

Anyone know if there is some trick to solve this?

Many thanks,

Andro

You can have external runtimes, but they must be on same drive to work.
For example:
D:program filese-frontierposer 6runtime
D:program filessmith microposer 7runtime
D:program filessmith microposer 8runtime
This problem is known since P7 but was never fixed. Another workaround is merge all runtimes to a big one. (that was I did)

Ok, so if I move all the runtimes to d:runtimes, I would have no problem anymore...

I'll see if I can get all the content installed in those runtimes again...

I had the same problem and purchased "CR Pro" and edited all my external Runtimes to show "Full Path" and not "Relative Path", which is the default and what most content creators use.

For that to work you'd have to install the Poser application on your "D" drive too, along with the Runtime.
