I am searching for information on using v1.01 Apophysis saved files in v2.02. Have not installed v2.02 because of this dilemma. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, VikingLady

I frequently generate batches in version 1 and then close it, open v.2 and pick up the Rand.fla file to process them. You will find it in Program Files/Apophysis (be sure to search with 'all files') HTH ~Vivian

Good, Thanks, will try that. The worry remaing is of v.2 trying to overwrite v.1. Any suggestions?

The default installation of Apo 2 is Program Files/Apophysis 2, so there is no worry there at all.

I've tried to use Apo 1 files in Apo 2.02c a few times and was able to get them reasonably correct. I did note that, when opened in 2.02c, they seemed grainier and were sometimes zoomed/positioned differently. Also, since Apo 1 never "remembered" the gradient used when you saved the flame, Apo 2.02c would usually open them with the first gradient in the "stock" ones that came with Apo 1 - the light blue and white one with some tan. "Nude Sunbather", or something like that it was called. It was nothing that you couldn't fix, though, so long as you remember which grad was used. Mine are mostly "landscaping" flames I've exported to UF, so I can always open the Gradient Editor and see which one I used. Hmmm......nude......sunbather.......high 2day to be 84 degF...........must find binoculars and sneak up to Canaveral National Seashore! lol Rick

Apophysis of any version does not overwrite any files. the only thing needed to be deleted is the exe file in programs so the 2.03c version will take it's place. I always store parameter files somewhere besides the Apo' folder and make cds on a regular basis
