I think I'm just going to get into the habit of opening a side window and loading from there.
I still need ic5 to modify stuff and I don't want to eat up hard drive space with doubling my content. The short cut stuff helps but it's still a troublesome experience.

which btw, the quickest way to do that is to simply go to your ic5 folders, right click on the folder, "create shortcut" then move those short cuts to your desktop. imo, that's easier than re-installing or eating up drive space duplicating files. I just wish it were that simple in iclone. I have freelance projects I need to access, this isn't a hobby anymore. ;)

"To define Tao is to defile it" - Lao Tzu

I added IC6 to my Win 7 firewall and gave it access and still having problems with certain files. I started out with 98 content packs to install and got 60 to download and install with the RLD installer. I didn't count but of the remaining 38 content packs, probably 25 of them are not set up to download with the RLD installer and just bring me to my account page where I can manually download them. The other ones that do not download with the RLD installer fail with an error message and some even get about half way on the first progress bar. I am waiting to find out what to do because if I download and manually install one, it does not get removed from the UNINSTALLED list in the content manager which could become confusing. I think from what I read that when the files that are in that position, they will update them and eventually it will work as planned. At least I hope so. :D
Thanks,

edit: fixed info. :hehe:

Check and update your firewall settings for iC6, that solved some problems for me. I also use TinyWall to help block unwanted malware and such and had to add iC6 to it as well.

The RLD file on the other hand, I had to disable the TinyWall firewall in order for it to function properly. Hope this helps. :)

If they are switching to the rld format, I won't be buying anymore content. It doesn't work on my PC. I click on run and I get the box to open or save. I click on open and it tells me it can't connect to the internet. I have a problem ticket into tech support but haven't gotten a reply. I am connected to the internet or I couldn't get to Reallusions site. I don't have a problem with the download option but I can't do the run option.

RL needs to build a batch tool for migration.

I had a simular problem and found that my firewall needed updated for iC6. :crazy:

Really!?!

I've just downloaded and installed the much anticipated IC6 opened it up and want to get busy and play with my existing content to see 'the differences' ... and I'm immediately disappointed.

I have a very large library and I am seeing a chunk of it appear in the not-installed window....

and the best you can do is advise me to either re-download and install all the content semi-manually or, as a kind of after-thought, take a 'non-recommended' path of cutting and pasting between my iclone 5, directory structure into the iclone 6 directory structure?

.. and yes, I did see the link to a third party util. ... but really?

Granted, I can understand the advice to NOT just pick up the root of your IC5 directory and copy it in... but I would have thought that an interactive content migration tool (that operates directly on your local content) wouldn't have been too much of a distraction, or effort, to your main game with this product launch. It would have saved, what I imagine must be the collective grumble (nay rumble), your IC5 user-base must surely be making at the moment.

Oh my God! ... This is going to take me hours!

Grumble grumble grumble...

(and great! I like the idea of moving over to a Daz style downloader linked to an inventory on both marketplace and RA store .. Really, I do!)

EDIT:

Ok.. Perhaps a little quick on the trigger with that one. ... I'm used to poser and being able to point to different runtime libraries at a whim.

... One ginormous cut'n'past job currently running at the moment. ... Not sure what stuff transferred won't work when all is said and done (and therefore forever likely to hog disk for the ever after) .. but I'm hitting 'no' when prompted to 'overcopy' .. and praying like hell for the best when my IC5 library is moved into place.

I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.. I've been looking forward to IC's debut for sooooo very long.

... Right now I feel like a kid that's been told he cannot go out to play until he's put away all his (old) toys!

I'm having issues too....
I have download & installed stuff from my Marketplace Inventory, and also Member Page. 'Some' of the Props/Avatars etc show up in I6, some show up in the 'Not installed' (& won't install) though I download & installed them y'day...(??)
Others show the Folder but when you Double click on the Folder, ie: 'Walk' 'run'.. There is Nothing in the folder.... (?)
The Majority of the stuff in the recent 'Black Friday' deal won't run in my I6. :(

In other matters, I love the new look & feel.

I see where the items with VNS files do not get properly copied into IC6 when I view the logs, of which I save every one for future reference. Too bad the logs are not named to reflect the content name of the pack but I guess I can do that later. The packs that do not get properly installed even when they have the RLD content installer working, do not get removed from the content manager Not Installed List. That is good. ;)
