Eel only showing part of his head

[Jim Sachs]

You can always download the program anytime from SereneScreen.com.

Are you absolutely sure you're running the version with the eel? When you press the W key, can you see the eel behind the rocks?

Jim

Thank you
That looks Fantastic.

When I press the W Key I can not see him at all.

But when the Cave is about centre screen I can just see about less than half of his head.

This is the Version I am running UA26.3.1.5563

If this is not correct what version should I be running with W7 32bit

I don't know what you're seeing in the cave, but if the eel isn't there in wireframe, then it's never there.

I believe the version on SereneScreen.com is W207.3.2.6025.

[Xylem]

Really?

I have what I think is the recent version (with the eel). It is V 609.3.2.5991.

Is this the correct one? Maybe the D/L screen could be labelled with the available version?

Cheers........

[Jim Sachs]

We will be taking control of the website soon, and will include that.

Just where are you all getting that version number? My copy D/L 7/18/ 2012 under properties of MA3Ex.exe shows File version 1.0.0.0 The File Version of MarineAquarium3.scr shows as 3.2

There never was a systematic numbering system in place as far as I am aware.

Okay... found where you all are getting that version number from.. the About Screen reached by actually running the program. Which in my case is the same number as Xylem has noted

[Jim Sachs]

All the 3.2 versions are practically identical. Edgar had to recompile when we made some extremely minor changes for Mindspark, so a new version number is generated each time.

Perhaps this might clarify things a little... ?

... In relation to: - Version: U527.3.0.4745

That's a stamp which is put on by the build system each time the program is compiled. Generally, the higher the number the newer the version, but it also depends on whether it was compiled on my computer or Edgar's. The breakdown is: Year U (2010), Month 5, Day 27, Version 3.0, Build 4745.  

Mine currently shows.... Version: W207.3.2.6025 .... And I have a fully present Harvey!

[Xylem]

Thanks cj. That makes it clear that we will all be a little confused

Glad you're taking control, Jim. I wonder how we will know when a new version has meaningful changes. Will there possibly be an 'Update' button or some such thing added to the program?

Sorry if this has all been previously discussed ad naseum.

cheers.....

[Jim Sachs]

The version number would be updated when there is any significant change or addition. The next version would be 3.3.

I'm sure there will be plenty of discussion around here.

Jim I did a lot of back tracking and found this link you posted a while back.

I down loaded it to my desk top and I can see the Eel very clearly

Next question is how do I get it to my Screen saver please?

Or how can I Download it I still have my Key Code

Keith

[Jim Sachs]

Downloading it from SereneScreen.com (or anywhere else) does not affect your Key Code.

There are 3 ways to set it as your screensaver:

You can download it from the SereneScreen page and use the automatic installer.
You can set it from the Screensaver section of Display Properties.
You can right-click on the icon or filename, and choose Install from the menu.

Thank you for your help.

Yeah, but the movement is all messed up.

No problem, both MA vids deleted.
