pk, thanks for the upgrade. Looks pretty good! I did have a problem with the install, however. I managed to install it manually, but am mentioning it just so you're aware of someone not installing smoothly at least! Happened when I chose either intermediate or expert mode. I didn't try beginner mode. Everything goes smooth until the end of installing the Savers2. Then, right after installing the Sculpt saver, it pops up a requestor that says: "Sorry… an error has occurred! STARTUP: Can't find script" and a 'proceed' button. Hitting 'proceed' aborts the install process. Well, I this seems to occur at lines 601-610 in the install script. The program appears to be looking for a script called STARTUP, wherein it would ask me if I wanted the 'ADPro:' assign added to my 'user-startup' script in S:. Well, at first I didn't have a 'user-startup' script, so I decided to create one. Still no go. Then I did a directory called 'user-startup' thinking maybe it wanted that. Still no go. In short, I've never been able to get it to install beyond this point. My machine is an A2500 (GVP 030) with HD and plenty of RAM. My 'Install-ADPro' script is 47,472 bytes long, if that makes any difference. Last comment. A friend with a regular A2500 (commodore 030 and controller) received his upgrade on Saturday. He tried installing it, but right after clicking on the icon, his machine froze. He tried several things, but it did it each time. So he ended up manually installing it too. Just thought that you'd like to know above. Ask away if you want any more info about my specific case, at least…. thanks for the upgrade! –jp–seattle–
