Victoria 4.2 in Studio 4.15 Mac - quickest way of doing things?

Well, after all that 8.1 things I thought I should give good old Vicky 4 another try and if it is just for evaluating which old V4 outfits I might try to convert over to Gen8.

Now seems that it was quite a while so I'm no longer fluent in installing/loading V4 stuff. Is there any quick tutorial I can refer to? Problem is all those are old and I don't know it they still work in current 64bit environments.

So what do I need to install?
What and in which order to I need to load/inject? (Base, Shapes, Morphs)?
Is it still necessary to run scripts for creating morphs (think it was in the past) once using DIM and do those run on Mac Catalina?

Thanks in advance!

    If you install the figure, the morph packs you want, and the PowerLoader packages for all then you should get a dialogue in DS when you load the figure that will let you choose which morphs to load. Use something other than DS itself to do the installing.

    Richard, could you elaborate a little more what to use for installing and about that PowerLoader dialoge.

    I have the following in DIM which I installed with DIM:

    V4.2 Base
    V4.2 Base PowerLoader
    V4.2 Base StudioCF
    V4.2 Bodysuit
    V4.2 Bodysuit Expansion Pack
    V4.2 Muscle Morphs
    V4.2 Shapes++
    V4.2 Shapes++ Developer Kit
    V4.2 Shapes++ PowerLoader
    V4.2 Shapes++ StudioCF

    Think I had the Base PowerLoader not installed. Upon loading 42 base I no get the attached dialogue.

    There should be a PowerLoader (PwrLdr or the like) for the muscle morphs too. Install that lot and when you double click Poser Formats>yourcontentdirectory>Figures>Daz People>Victoria 4.2 (or whatever it's labelled) you should get a dialogue box listing the available morph sets, with thumbnails (if you install the main Power Loader but not the ones for the morph packs they will just be listed by their really old style product code - ps_mr###). If you don't get the dialogue try holding down the cmd/ctrl key while double-clicking.
