Avanquest Now Advertising MA3 ?

Ex_Brit · 06-09-2011, 04:40 AM

I'm assuming it's v3.0 - so we still look in this section or Prolific's website for the latest builds right? (Paid version). I thought they had been found to be distributing free keys?

I'm on their mailing list and was rather surprised to see it still being 'sold' by them. I'm assuming the problems reported elsewhere in these forums were ironed out?

By the way I just added MA2.6 App to my iPad, very nice indeed!

Yes, the problem with Avanquest has been straightened out - one of their subsidiaries had done the free-key-code stunt.

Haven't seen you here in a while - are you running the Moray Eel version yet?

Hi Jim,

No not yet. I guess that's a possibility in one of my other OS's. I see from a forum search that's in a beta version. I'll give it a whirl when I get a moment.

Thanks and all the best.

Edit: On further delving through the forums I see that it is an infrequent and unannounced visitor in 3.1....my bad for not reading all the posts. I will see if I can catch him/her in the act.

;-)

It's actually v3.2, which can be downloaded here: http://www.fish-byte.com/MA3Beta12d.zip.

All the new files have been uploaded to Prolific, so it will soon be the official version on SereneScreen.com. The Mac translation is also well underway.

Oh I see. Just use the same key I assume. Thanks.

Ex_Brit · 06-09-2011, 10:15 AM

About says 3.0.5967 which appears to be a lower version than the one I already had...?

If you can see the eel in the cave, then it is the newest.

Ex_Brit · 06-09-2011, 11:14 AM

It's there so I guess i do have the latest.

It wont stay installed though although I selected 'Install" on the right-click, is that because it's beta ?

Jim Sachs · 06-09-2011, 11:20 AM

Yes. I just got the installer version. It's at: http://www.fish-byte.com/MarineAquarium3.exe

Thanks Jim, now it's duly installed and my moray doesn't seem that shy. ;-)
