    • Do a search for it on (url="http://"http://www.download.com")www.download.com(/url) it is there, and it is downloadable.

      I would find you a url but I am busy.

      Its ok.... But I made a little cleaning on my hard disk and as I had two versions of Lightwave installed (5.6 and 6.5 ) I wanted to trash one and trashed all and I did'nt found the CD back. Now I've found the CD but I'm pissed off cause I lost all my plugs. Must reinstall everything.

    • Regarding Strata 3d...

      How do I "register" it on a machine that does not have internet access? I get net access from work, but do not have net access at home. I have successfully installed it at work. I want to run strata 3d on my home machine. Any Ideas?

      ummm... you could probably try using the same registration code (I assume you're talking about the free version).

      I think so, Brain, but if they called them sad meals, kids wouldn't buy them.

    • No ! Once you entered the code, the app will need to connect to the web to send your info to the Strata site.
      However. You can always try to copy thepreference file from the app you have at work and place it in your preferences folder. But I don't know if this is 100% legal so take care. You take all responsability of your acts.

    • Copying the prefs file works. I've helped some people a while ago, who had trouble with Strata. The app crashed each time it wanted to connect to the net. I believe since you already have registrated Strata on another computer it's legal to copy your prefs for personall use only.

    • Thanks, I copied the strata prefs from my work computer to my home computer. It worked.

    • HELP! I got strata 3.0 (free version), and I got the registration code, but i need to conect to the net afterwards. The machine has no net access. Can someone post a preferences file for WINDOWS Strata 3d v3.0? PLEASE? I need to make ships.

    • Wow. That topic is two and half years old. If you didn't know before, you're not supposed to post in very old topics unless it's approved by mods. It's called grave-digging.

      Yes, as zhouj has already said, gravedigging bad 😛

      Anyway, I thought Id better explain somethings... We dont know how Strata under windows stores its registration data. The best Windows Strata artist on the boards had to move from 3.0.2 to 3.5 (the newer but vastly inferior version) because he couldnt get the registration to work. 3.5 does allow the registration without CD or server.

      I tried to find 3.5 for Windows through a google search for you but I couldnt find anything :frown: If anyone has a copy of it, please email me at ewan@macfire.net and I will organise hosting for it 🙂

    • I am sorry about the gravedigging. I ran a search on the boards and the topic popped up and it seemed so appropriate I replied. Won't do again. Thank you for the google search, too bad it didn't pull anything up, I tried that too. Well then, since strata seems to be so irritating, maybe I should switch 3d modelling apps. I have a Windows PC remember, and I need something I don't have to 'pay' for and which works with the whole EVN plug process, preferably smallish. Any recommends? What specifically does a graphic modelling tool need for EVN? What are the requirements?
      Also, while I'm on 3d apps, how does the whole ship plug differ in Windows plug creation? As I am using EVNEW (great job by the way on that program), I have a feelnig i will have to do different things to make a ship, put it into a plug, run game, have ship. Making i have figured out - 3d modelling, render as a quicktime file, open in photoshop, touch up, separate ship, glow, and shipmask glowmask then... what? Do i even have this part right? I am making a TC (yes, weird, as i haven't made any small plugs other than some 'unreleasably evil' cheats, but I've got a great idea), and I have the universe plotted out (HUGE!), along with some descriptions and the backstory, but I can't do anything else (missions, finish universe, ships, outfits, planets, even governments) until I see what ships i end up making. I have asked this on other topics but have not gotten a really satisfactory answer. I downloaded the Ships2.0 guide but that's all mac. I'm not sure how, with EVNEW, to go about the whole graphical plugin process. There seems to be a lack of info on how to do this. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to post say a tutorial or some kind of step by step on doing this. Do I need novatools? EnRLE? I'm sorry I'm asking so much of the community but I have a lot to learn (say again: a lot to learn) and this seems the place to get answers. Thank you for all past and future help.
