Installation Problems
« on: October 29, 2009, 11:59:01 am »

Hy guys,
it seems none had a problem like mine: when I click on the downloaded file (anim8or.exe) to install it, nothing happens, just some second of the lil hourglass near the cursor and then nothing.

I tried to click it several times, but nothin to do!
I also tried with the previous 0.95b version, but it's the same! :(

Hope someone can help me!

Bye

What PC / OS have you got.

Also there's no need to install Anim8or, you should just be able to click on the .exe and run the program.

You realize, I hope that it's PC-only (no Mac version available), and that it's directly executable (no installation, per se).

Maybe I have the same problem.
I downloaded and executed anim8or.exe. I immediately got the message:
"Anim8or has stopped working". I have vista and, before posting this message. I disabled my antivirus and tried version 0.95b with the same result.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Right-click on the executable or desktiop shortcut, and select Properties.  Then, in the compatibility tab, select XP, as shown:
