I'm not sure. I'm using PP2014 (now running from the Windows-approved C drive location), but my scripts are all in an external runtime on a separate drive.

But that's a good point. And maybe the UAC problem I was getting was precisely because I was running the script from a location outside the Poser installation ?

I think I need to run the old version of my script, the one prior to the "use poser.TempLocation() instead of poser.AppLocation()" fix, from within Poser's Python directory just to make sure.


The 3Dcheapskate* occasionally posts sensible stuff. Usually by accident. And it usually uses Poser 11, with units set to inches. Except when it's using Poser 6 or PP2014, or when its units are set to PNU or something else.
