differnt DS (versions) installed

man that took time *lol*

it took hours and hours to finish the download process, but I was feard to stop anything until it was done.

When I installed DS on my new pc I remembered on some information concerning download options I´ve reade here and did ... I honestly dont know what.. So now I got the following situation:

It shows up that I´ve installed 5 DS (versions) .   4.9 Public Build Beta( 32 and 64bit) ,  4.9 ( 32 and 64bit)  and one I canot identivy. Looks like the same as DS 4.9 64bit

Now as I have invest that time and have all of this. Is it good for anything ? Or should I ( because of possible conflicts ) deinstall all and start again ?

To check the situation I started one of the 64bit non beta version,  downloaded a posing freebie from DS site and it works. Looking forward on your feedback

There should be no comflicts between beta and no beta, or 32 and 64 bit versions (except that plug-ins that work in only one bit version will be closed if you open the other). You need the 64 bit version for iray (and the ability to handle more than the simplest scenes), but LipSync is 32 bit only so if you use that you need the 32 bit version to set the speech up (you can then add to the scene and render in the 64 bit version).

I'm not sure about the "extra" version - where are you seeing that?

thank you Richard for your fast repley. Concerning the "extra" version I cannot identivy whats different. They show as 4.9 pro and work

thanks for the info regarding LipSync ... as I´m a newbee I eat such tips

Now it comes to the next step, which is transfer my content library to my new pc. I´m sure there is a how to do to find here. Do you have an idea where?
