newton2: a first look at the next version

im actually up waiting lol

Im sooooo excited for this
Cant wait to download it!

Oh come on. You've GOT to upload it now! This is unfair!

Why is it unfair?,Entropy might have other more important things to do!.

More important? [shocked] You mean...

Having a life outside of CC?!?!

We don't speak of these things.

[stoning]

I can just tell this will be released after i go to sleep, so when i wake in the morning I will have to go to school and be waiting a whole other day...

(sorry, guys i had an EMO moment)

Released: http://nolimits-exchange.com/news/20/newton2

Now I won't get outside for at least a week =)

Thank you entropy for the programme and thank you Matt for hosting the file

Neither version 1 nor version 2 want to work for me! D:

So far it's amazing.
Great work entropy!

I don't think I'll ever go back to FVD now. It's great how Newton instantly shows you the position of the first and last vertices. That will really help with trying to reproduce a ride from a rough layout made by hand.

What OS are you running and also in which way aren't they running, any error messages coming up? Imformation like this will help others work out a possible solution for you (maybe).

Okay then!
I'm just running a normal XP home. Nothing different. I used CAM-unzip to unzip the files, which may have made problems arise. I'm not sure, though. ut anyway, when I try to open Newton, I just get that screen that says that Newton encountered a problem and was not able to run. I really don't get it. D:

GAPman, maybe you should go back and read the thread about the first version of Newton. I'm pretty sure that XP users had to download something extra to make it work. Do a forum search for newton and you should find it.


Nice little program, by the way. A great alternative to the NL editor, without having to switch between a bunch of different programs. Thanks Entropy.

You need to download the latest .net framework in order to get either of the Newtons to work.

Thanks! Both of you.

Yep, XP users need first to install the .Net 3.0 Framework. It's about a 50 mb download. Vista users do not need to install anything.

Mac users can run it if they have Boot Camp on their machines (with Windows, obviously). I've also tried it in VMware on a Mac Pro workstation. The performance was acceptable (if not great).

Will anyone be making a tutorial on how to use it? Or a Tips/Tricks guide?

Follow the link on one of my recent posts...or the link on the download page...or the link provided in the readme file. They'll all take you to the same place. [;)]

This looks crazy! I don't even know where to start, haha. XD

D:
The framework doesn't want to install correctly. It hives me an error every time. I've tried 3.0 and the newest one... This is so weird!

PROTIP: There's nothing more annoying than saying "it gives me an error" and not saying what the error IS.

Haha, I understand. Sorry!
This is what is says: Microsoft .NET Framework has encountered a problem during setup. Setup did not complete correctly.
Not good..

Here's the log thing:
