When I load up Daz 4.24 AP works just fine, so I think worst case scenario everything seems to work if I save things in 4.24 and load them into 6, but it's just an annoying extra step!
Daz Studio 6 updates the core program version, and scripting language, as such all scripts, and plug-ins will need to be re-written for the new core/scripting language. So all the nice little Mat Copy scripts, and shell fix scripts and everything like that will need to be updated to work in Daz Studio 6

Phooey. Well at least the script still works in 4.24!

There are going to be hundreds, if not thousands, of scripts and plugins that will no longer work with DAZ Studio 6 and a lot of them will likely never be updated, so don't get plan on getting rid of your DS 4.24 any time soon. Fortunately they will both run happily on the same system as they install into separate folders.
I saw a post the other day (on the site that begins with a D that I have been prohibited from posting on because I dared to be critical about some of their products) that wondered whether a translation layer would be possible so that DS 4+ scripts and plugins would run on 6. I think that's unlikely to be possible because of the internal changes. Maybe some enterprising tech billionaire could have an AI trained so that you could just ask it "Convert this script from DAZ Studio 4 to DAZ Studio 6" I don't know, maybe ChatGPT or something can already do that. :)
