How do I add a poser runtime to carrara 5 pro?

WendyLuvsCatz

you cannot
Carrara 6 was first one to have ability to add a Poser runtime, can only import Poser content into 5
do not bother, you can buy C8.5 cheap enough if in platinum club with V5 and M5 pro bundles included

I started with C5pro in 2009 on a mag disc, got C6 within a month or so it was so frustrating but you do not want that either
C8 has bullet physics along with 3D paint, dynamic hair etc that 5 never had

Jonstark

wow where did you find a copy of Carrara5 pro?

Sorry, like Wendy says I think that's too old to work natively with poser content.

TransPoser 2 for Carrara 4 or Carrara 3D Basics 2
– 20 Jan, 2007
The TransPoser 2TM plug-in for Carrara 4 enables the import of Poser characters and animations. Carrara users now have access to Poser's full range of realistic 3D characters. TransPoser simply takes a Poser scene and inserts it into a Carrara scene, as easy as that! Characters are imported complete with full textures, hair, clothing, animation and lighting.
Working in Carrara with Poser characters has never been more simple or satisfying. TransPoser 2 builds on the capabilities of the first version by adding support for Poser 5/6 dynamic hair, lighting and texture. With TransPoser 2, your Poser animations will virtually come to life in ways you've only dreamed of. Now you can truly let your imagination take hold of your Poser figures, thanks to Carrara and TransPoser 2!
Poser is an e frontier product. TransPoser is based on Poser technology provided by e frontier.

EDIT - I have a copy of Carrara 3D - so it will work .

carrara 5 can import pz3 files and cr2, pp2 etc anyway as can any carrara since, is what I used to do when I used it,
I bought Poser 7 as DAZ studio just crashed continually on my old laptop and did stuff in Poser and rendered in Carrara

I could never get Transposer to work. I imported the object files and rigged myself in C5.

I agree with Wendy, get the latest version. Even if you don't use Genesis, V4, M4 etc. work great.

I found that I already had a copy of version 6, so I added the runtime to that.

there are some big improvements in Carrara 8.5,. and as already mentioned above,. the price for carrara pro (upgrade) is pretty cheap for what you get ,.. it;'s probably less that the price of the bundled content alone
