Cool, thanks for the update, I've just installed it and will let you know if I encounter something.

Hehe.

I downloaded it, tried the elipsoid tool, and it froze up immediately. Maybe I should have changed the image size :)



Anyway, are you able to make the website automatically email me (and others who've paid for it, of course) when there's a new version? I only checked now, 4 days after the release :(

I'm going to have a lot of fun with this version >:D


by the way is anything bad gonna happen if I accidentally installed it over the old version, without removing that one first?

Edit: ...Wow! The walk around mode is amazing! It increases preformance, allows more control and better accurcy... WOW!!

Edit 2: I somehow managed to break orbit, and it started to work like look around. I don't know how it happened, and after restarting P3D I wasn't able to recreate it.

Edit 3: oh, of course. I must have zoomed in too far and therefore made orbit just turn. Hehe. Hmph.

I've also installed the new version over the old one and encountered no problems. Only one installed Paint3D entry remains, so I guess not deinstalling the old version is no problem.

Great idea, take a look here.

TBH I don't know, never tried it. In the worst case it will leave some uninstallable files/register keys on your computer that you'll have to delete manually.
