I am currently having problems with Vivians Flower generator in Vue 6 Esprit at home, which is strange as it works at the office with Vue 6 infinite.

Has anyone here used Vivians program with V6 Esprit? I cant get it working, but i think its my crappy computer rather. Afaik Vue 6 Esprit should handle .veg exactly as Infinite, right?

I attach the link to this mail, i hope some nice user of the board cvan help me getting it working.
Vivian said its a free program as long as its in beta, so i think its okay to post here.

The program doesn't start, i always get some error message.

Edit: Nevermind, just read that it needs the .net framework 2.0 installed. Vista only came with .net 1.1 so i guess i need to upgrade first.

Gill,
Just click on the large download box to the right and a paranoia box opens where tou have to type the numbers that appear above it, then click 'get' underneath where you typed the numbers.. ...

@Nicolas_Ciel
At work your Admin Guy probably has your .net up to date...update that and I bet it will work, don't have Vue so I can't check but will watch this thread with interest anyways...LOL...love torturing myself about software I can't afford.. ...

Sorry Bobby I deleted my post before you replied .... some of the images weren't showing up so I couldn't see I'd got to type the code in the box.  I was getting lots of red x's

Thanx anyway :-)

I've never heard of this program - are there examples anywhere, so I can scope it out ?

Thanks :)

No Problemo Gill, my pleasure.. ...

@Nicolas_Ciel
Are you sure you linked the right download ?
What's in the zip is very tiny and more than a bit suspicious :glare:

Spysweeper starts to scream that the program tries to link to a know spyware source for the .net update. Had to do a system restore to get rid of the files.

I downloaded the program, extracted it to a folder, ran the exe, get an error message about  it not recognizing my display hardware, and  then nothing.  Does ithe program need to be extracted to a certain folder?  I checked all the files with my antivirus and anti spy-and they came up clean.

Won't even show up for me after executing...just resides as a process. Have all the required .NET runtimes, so a bit lost with this.
Says in the readme that he would like E-on to use it as a module...well, he's off to a good start - E-on seem to like bugs ;0)
Ok, I'm being harsh as it is free and beta, but it's about as much use as a chocolate kettle as it stands. Needs a lot of work before it's finished "beta" and I would be prepared to pay for it. The good intentions don't really make up for the bad execution (excuse the pun)!

Cheers

I had the same - nothing happens after execute.

Chocolate kettle.....hmmmmmmmmm like the sound of that.  Would be useful for my late night cup of cocoa :lol:

Well I think I'll deposit it in my trash then as I don't have Vue yet maybe the'll fix it by the time I get Vue.. ...

I'm not saying it's the author of the software, it could be the download site, deliberately or through hacking, but something tried to run a chat server on my PC after I installed. The only process running I was suspicious of was FlowerV6.exe, and killing that fixed things.

I'd run a virus/spyware/trojan check just to make sure nothing nasty got left on your machine.

Already did, plus I run ProcessGuard so no process can start without me knowing.

I notice that Nicolas_Ciel has made just one post on these forums, also the link is now broken, 'nough said?

*Indeed.....looks like he joined just that day ...well fore warned is fore armed, thanks for the original head's up.. ...

I am locking this thread after complaints about malware infecting the link initially attached to the first post.

I also removed the link to be safe (it is not working anyway at the time I am writing this).
