I'm not getting anywhere with it at all, seems I'm one of the unlucky ones who can't use certain scripts from Poser4, I'm really disappointed cause it's a great script, here's the error message I get, anyone got any ideas?

I get that bad magic number message too on other scripts...

The "bad magic number" error usually indicates that the script was compiled for Python 1.5 as included with Poser 4 Pro Pack. The binary format changed with Python 2.0 (Poser 5 is using Python 2.2) which requires most scripts to be recompiled. If your have the source code for the script (.py files), delete or move the compiled version (.pyc) and Poser will recompile it from the original source file. If you don't have the source of the script, contact the script author for a Poser 5 compatible version.

bushi wrote the script, but he seems to have disappeared, hasn't been on here since last month, starting to get little worried about him. I'll fire off an email see if he's ok, then ask him about his script :)
