Attached Link: Get It Here

Larry's Site is down so you'll have to get it here for now. -Jeff H.

I can't get it to download--it appears the file is not available yet. At least not for Mac


JeffH posted Thu, 03 February 2000 at 3:46 PM

It also won't download if too many people are accessing the file at one time. It's a very small server. -JH.

Hi Jeff! Is this different from the 4.02.116 beta on Larry's page dated 1/25/2000? With the old phone lines in my place, I can only get 26K so 8.1 Mbytes for the Mac Beta 7 takes hours! Thanks again! Eric Walters-Hmmn, maybe the odl "Mech" character will be Mac-able using the conversion utility! You helped me a lot way back when. It will be cool not to manually edit obj and Cr2's with Word!

I keep getting "Document contains no data" I was going for the MAC update. But the Win update gave me the same error. James

This one has a new installer that will update andy version of Poser4. Yep, that server is getting alot of accesses! -JH.

It looks to me as if the old site of GhostEffects is now working again - at least the download page is back.

Good thing too! This one is working again: http://host-1.ghosteffects.com/poser/poser.html -JH.

Whoa, hold it, time out. The link above takes you to patch 4.0.2.116 from 1/25/00 not update 7 This link takes you to Beta7 http://scarab.metacreations.com/poser/pdwn.htm

Bam, I guess you didn't read this whole thread did you? ;-) -JH.

:^} I've re-read over the above and still don't get it. Was MartinC looking for .116?


JeffH posted Mon, 07 February 2000 at 9:30 AM

The original message contains the very same link you reposted...


MartinC posted Mon, 07 February 2000 at 9:58 AM

The GhostEffects site has the .116 (Mac version as an 8.2 MB .sit file, to be installed manually), the "Scarab" site from Jeff's link has the the same .116 Patch, but as a VISE installer which is 13.6 MB! Unless you have trouble dragging some 20 files to specific folders, you should save download time and go for GhostEffects. (No idea if/which Windows version has an installer). 'Hope that finally clears it a bit... :-)

The main feature of Update 7 is that it will install over older updates without having to reinstall Poser from the CD.

Still doesn't seem to fix the running shoe problem when trying to read in previously saved (prior to any patch) files.
