  Have fun, please let me know how it goes, Ive tried to test it as much as possible to ensure its not buggy,
but as always pls let me know if you find it doing things you dont like. :)

Hi Art,
The ratchets work as I would expect no problem, however they always have spokes and the enable box doesn't function.  Perhaps this is intentional, however I don't usually have spokes on my ratchets and it would be nice to be able to turn them off.

Hi Art
Just loaded the version 4.93.04, I just let install over the  previous install. In Gearotic Motion it seems to be working fine but in Gearotic Thoughts I get the following error.
Thanks
Cecil Dupre

  Thx for the bug report. Im not sure why that one is happening as yet.. when you start GT, the first thing it does is kill all files in the TempData folder. It shouldnt fail
in that way. Does the program fail after that or run normally?

Thx

Gearotic Thoughts opens normal, I then click on the tools tab, create circular, from circular gear module when i click add wheel to project or pinion, is when the error appears. I can not place any gear into the project.
hope i explained it correctly. :P

  Interesting..sounds as if the installer didnt create the TempData folder. Can you verify you have a folder called TempData in your GM main folder?
If you dont, can you create one and see if the error remains?

hmm.. That file should be deleted the first time GT is run.  This sounds liek a system security issue.. Have you tried running as admin?

( Anyone else having this trouble as yet?? ))

Thx
