Hi folks  😄

For a long long time I've avoided V4.2 installation. My V4.1 worked OK, and I was drawing a LOOONG 3D comic with tons of saved pz3 scenes and I didn't want the ugly surprise of discovering troubles with my stored V4.1 characters :unsure:

But now and by the moment my comic is on the dead dock, and I'm studying seriously to update my V4.1. My questions are:

-V4.2 installation is still the same mess that in the beginning? Must I manually uninstall V4.1 or finally DAZ has the process in the V4.2 updater? If the mess continues, can anyone give me a link to a thread with clear instructions about the whole process? :blink:

-My pz3 scenes with lots of V4.1s will survive or I'll find 'ugly surprises'? :cursing:

Thanxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :woot:

What exactly gave you trouble before?  I installall the  DAZ figures with default options for Poser and I haven't had problems.

Old scenes with old versions of V4 will have all the morph data and whatnot saved into the scene file, I don't see where this will cause you any problems.

Wow. So DAZ fixed the bug :woot:

At the beginning, V4.2 installation was a f****** mess. You 'd need to uninstall manually V4.1 deleting folders and folders and lots of people had troubles... :cursing:

So I never installed the update. If now all's OK, then... :thumbupboth:

I never needed to uninstall V4.1.  Still have her on my system and V4.2 never gave me any installation issues.
