I finally got around to installing ADPro 2.3, upgrading my 2.0-whatever. Unfortunately, I get an "error has occured [sic] copying DPAINT saver" message. I looked at the savers.lha file and there isn't even a dpaint saver in here! Whaz going on? My impression from the notes about the DPaint patch that I'd be able to install all the DPaintIV stuff; I just wouldn't be able to use the loaders/savers until I did the patch. Is this right? Thanks, Karl

The saver/loader can be installed without first applying the patch to DPAINT to bring it up to 4.6. Whatever is going wrong in your install is something else. Please give our tech support line a jingle at (608) 273 6585. The DPAINT loader/saver are our direct connection to DPAINT 4.6. Using these modules, you can paint from ADPro, or image process from DPAINT.

Yeah, I thought this had nothing to do with the DPaint thingie, but thought I'd ask. This morning I suddenly remembered that you'd sent me out a new disk from that set, but when I dug around and found it, it was for disk 3. I haven't gotten that far yet! I'll call tech support tomorrow, I guess. I need this working for a demo next week. Karl

What sort of install problem did you have Karl? I just did my install of 2.3 today and all seems well. // \X/ -BiL-

It reports that a problem occurred while writing out the DPAINT saver. I got the hotline and got a replacement disk today. I'll see if that does it later tonight. (I checked the log it created, and it makes no sense what was reported. I hope this works.)
