I dragged my old laptop with W10Pro and fired it up... still works but I did wipe it and put some version of linux on it to see how it went... installed fine and updated. Then I turned it off and put it back in the cupboard.
I have a Windows 95 IBM machine in the back shed somewhere ( unless the missus has turfed it ) tempted to see if it still works
moving stuff around in one's content library apparently
Carrara (not DAZ studio) asks me where it is!!!
this is just browsing to the library, not actually loading anything
smart content doesn't work in DAZ studio for me anyway but I think Carrara might still use it to some extent
I just plonked stuff by Predatron fom 4 different locations into one of his folders, the duf files, and Carrara asked me to browse to and find every one of them!
DAZ Studio doesn't, it just loads them from wherever I put them
Comments
well Carrara itself is not the issue
its everything else
and that is the something that doesn't work in Carrara increasingly on Win10
I know Carrara itself works in Win11
Ditto what Diomede said, Wendy. My heart goes out to you!
Just keep your seatbelt fastened!

Always tempting to look back in time like that.

Extended for another 12 months which works well for my computer replacement !!!
Genesis 9 animation conversions
the first ones are fine and were baked aniblocks I believe I used Bone Minion on some
others are iClone 3DX6 conversions
but
those last ones were keyframed G8 animations converted with n_alexandru's script
and in Carrara they are crazy
I need to test further if its the script or the animations themselves how they are keyframed
may be an interpolation thing
AND if it happens in D|S as I save and render them on the character after conversion
not loading the saved pose file, it could be a save issue too
Talk about doing the Jitterbug !!!
my timeline was not showing everything as some of my body parts collapsed so missed a lot of keyframes
Carrara still does weird spins though as need to use angles in motion and forget
