Can anyone help me make DzCreateExPFiles-V4V3 work with Poser on a Mac?

Totte helped me successfully set up DzCreateExPFiles-V4. Based on what we did, I made this guide in the hope of using V4.2-to-V3:

1. Start the terminal, type cd with a space after it, drag the !DAZ folder (under runtime/libraries) from the finder window to the terminal window, and hit return.

2. Type

chmod +x ./DzCreateExPFiles.app/Contents/MacOS/DzCreateExPFiles

and hit return.

3. Type

ls -ls DzCreateExPFiles-V4V3.command

and hit return.

4. Type

chmod +x DzCreateExPFiles-V4V3.command

and hit return.

5. Type

ls -ls DzCreateExPFiles-V4V3.command

and hit return.

6. Doubleclick the DzCreateExPFiles-V4V3 script.

But I'm doing something wrong, because when I do that, I get this:

sudo: DzCreateExPFiles.app/Contents/MacOS/DzCreateExPFiles: command not found

I double-checked my password, and it's the only thing I'm sure I did right. Anyone have any idea where I goofed up?

ETA: I'm using the current OSX and Poser Pro 2014.

I don't have a Mac, but I do use Linux; OS X is stupid old UNIX under the pretty GUI. :) .

Step 2 is redundant, because you already did it to get V4 set up, but it shouldn’t hurt anything, unless you happened to enter '-x' .

In the Terminal window, try..

ls -l *.app

...to make sure that the executable bit is set for DzCreateExPFiles. If it isn't, set it using chmod.
