So I have tried again and again to take advantage of Poser 11 updates, since originally Superfly would not render in the background or in the Queue manager. To date, I am still stuck with that situation, because any update I install past the first couple results in Poser 11 crashing upon open.

I finally got in touch with Poser Support, but after initial response, I haven't heard back from them in a while, perhaps because it's the weekend. Maybe somebody here can help....

In normal Windows mode, the message isn't all that helpful, but when I attempt to open Poser with the latest update in Safe Mode, I get the following message:

"Warning Poser cannot find an open port for library communication. Please make sure you have no firewall or anti-virus software preventing communication."

I had already tried disabling my antivirus before, but I tried again, and also made sure Poser Pro was added to Windows Firewall's list of allowed programs, but that has not resolved the problem. It seems odd that an update would affect ports, but maybe someone here has an idea.

(I'm running Windows 8.1.)
