Poser is going up in version number.

[FrahHawk]

But before it does that, it's moving over to Renderosity under the brand name of Bondware. One picky issue is on startup in Poser, it pops up a warning notification :


An errror occurred importing addon Reality :
ERROR: need more than 1 value to unpack

They said that the responsibility falls on the creator of the plugin and not on Poser. Installation and re-installation don't solve the problem. I would like to continue to use Reality with the next version of Poser. Poser 11.2

I tried to re-install Reality 4.3 in Poser Pro 11.2.272

When I start Poser, I get this message:

An errror occurred importing addon Reality : ERROR: need more than 3 values to unpack

An errror occurred importing addon Reality : ERROR: need more than 3 values to unpack

The Reality option does not appear in the Render dropdown menu.
Seems to be a python script thing; everything worked fine in Poser 11 Standard (latest version) before the upgrade to Poser Pro.

Is there anything I can do to fix the problem?
Should Bondware fix it?
Is an update of Reality necessary?

I'm having the same issue

I am also getting this issue. I also just tried copying the script folder over from PoserPro2014 rather than reinstall. I get that same message about more than 3 values required when I startup PoserPro 11.

Renderosity forums refer to the version number is now 3 elements, no longer 4. There was also an issue with an embedded space, which they say is resolved in a beta version available behind the serial number verification screen. I'm just running the non-beta release.

This is what I get in the python shell screen:

tsoren, were you able to correct the problem with Reality?

[sempie]

There's a thread about it at Renderosity. Snarlygribbly is working at a fix, adjusting the way python starts up.
I'm beta-testing it and I got Reality running again from Poser 11.2.
The script fixes problems with several older Python-based plug ins.

If nothing goes wrong the fix should be available in a few days.
From the forum link here it will probably be part of the next Poser build, but the current build can be fixed easiily with Snarly's patch.

[FrahHawk]

Yes! And that's wonderful news!!!!

[tsoren]

That Snarlygribbly fix works for me too.

The fix (for Poser Pro 11.2 rather than Reality) can be found here:

With many thanks to Snarlygribbly.

Now here's one more trouble to shoot.

Where is Paolo?
