I just set up Poser 8 and have been reading as much as I can in searching Poser in the forums but was wondering if there are any "I wish I knew this first" tips that you knowledgeable people could hand out?
Thanks in advance!

This isn't for version 8, but it will help a lot when getting started:

Download the SL avatar files from thie SL website, Downloads page. Unzip the file and copy or move the contents to:
Documents\Poser 8 Content\Runtime\Libraries\Character\SLFigures (assuming you are running MS Windows and create the SLFigures folder) _____________________

To add the Poser figures to your Poser Library:
1. Navigate to the install location of your Poser app. and open the 'character' folder of your Poser library. (For example, ...\Poser 5\Runtime\libraries\character) 2. Copy the 'SL Avatar' folder and its contents into the character folder. 3. Start Poser and clear the work space. 4. Open the Poser library and click the 'Figures' button to reveal the character folder categories. Open the "SL Avatar" folder to find 2 new characters, "SL_Female" and "SL_Male". Double click the icon to add it to your scene. |

in Poser 8 it has the following folders in Runtime:
Cg figures heads libraries plugins poserHtml prefs Python scripts ui WebLinks and inside libraries is -ONLY- has Collections which has NOTHING inside of it. So Im confused. Ive even tried putting the SL Avatars folder inside figures, and it still doesnt show when I open Poser 8 |

Is there not also a "Poser 8 Content" folder with a "Runtime" folder beneath it?
Or, possibly a Downloads\Runtime\Libraries? _____________________

I don't know if you have found it yet or not, but the path your are looking for is
C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Poser 8 Content\Runtime\Libraries\Character (unless you installed poser not to be public then it would be in your own user folder) I don't know if this is new to for version 8, or something dumb with Vista, but there ya go  |
