Buddy Snow is Poser 9+ only, due to material nodes, animated materials and weight-mapping. There is zero support for earlier versions of Poser and DAZ Studio.
There are some caveats when applying different materials due to animated material support. Animated material dials only work on the nodes that are initially set up for Buddy and his gear.
