I have just updated my mac pro and I have found that Firefly does not work I just get a grey render
I am using OS Mojave GPU is a Nvidia Geforce GTX 680 4gig
Any suggestions on a GPU that would work with Mojave as it seems Nvidia is no longer supported

Does CPU rendering work ok?

Does SuperFly work for you? I've just opened Poser 11.3 on my Mac and neither Firefly nor Superfly work for me anymore! I get the preview while it renders, but when it completes the render is blank/grey. These are scenes that worked fine for me the last time I opened them and the same for new scenes I create. Is this a Catalina issue I wonder?

Oka...y I checked and there is apparently an updated Mac version available.
The notes say 11.3.818 - Released 2020-06-07 and mine 11.3.740
So I downloaded the latest version (or so I thought).
I ran the installer and my version is still 11.3.740 and it has overwritten/reset all my preferences.
I am rather peeved about this.
Can anyone tell me what has wrongly been overwritten so I can try and get it back?
At least running the installer has fixed the grey/blank render problem it seems.
Is there an installer for 11.3.818 anywhere?

Okay, again, I found all the prefs etc. in the "Application Support:Poser Pro" folder. Luckily I have a habit of backing up so was able to copy all the files back so my UI, default scene, library etc. is all back. Still can't help but wonder about the mythical 11.3.818

and again...
it seems my install had created an additional installation and I do in fact have 11.3.818 installed after all.
