Hi, I would like to update to 10.15 Catalina, but I understand it won't run 32-bit applications: I know Poser 11.2 is 64-bit, but is the Poser Library 32-bit? Briefly, is it safe to upgrade? Thanks

My primary Mac for Poser is running Sierra, but I do have a MacBook running Catalina that I use with Poser. Poser Pro 11.2 runs well on it, including the built-in library. I do need to get the latest public update to Poser as my build is around 11.2.320, I think. Do note that there are now alpha release builds of Poser Pro specifically for testing with Catalina. I'm not brave enough to try those yet. 😀

People should also be aware that some of the older macOS versions are getting 32-bit averse. I'm still running macOS Sierra 10.12.6, and I can no longer run Hexagon, which is supposedly both 32 and 64 bit, but now completely fails to launch, bouncing its icon in the dock forever until I force quit it.

Hexagon is still 32 bit, only the Beta Version for Windows is 64 bit ...

Thanks for that confirmation @Kerya, DIM wasn't being any help an Sierra doesn't complain, it just doesn't run. :-(
