Hi guys... "TERRAFORMER 0.50" developement is back on track. Actually - off and on - it never left the track, lol. The delay to being more vigorous about completeing this installment resulted from the following pathetic excuses (that are - nonetheless - true): #1, "LIFE", need I say more (well - I will anyway). #2, An inability to command myself; "STOP ALREADY - IT'S GOOD ENOUGH!" #3, "Murphy's Law", i.e. " All things have a tendency to collapse, given sufficient opportunity - and a touch of a sense of false security WITHOUT knocking on wood. I will NOT go into details - sufficed to say that I have been riding the tsunami of rapid fire life transitions - floating only on a broken lawn chair, lol. So far - I have completed 168 .lgt lighting and color files, 200 cloud maps, 100 cloud color swatches, 236 Image Climates, and I am finalizing 22 Compass Roses, a few map cartouches, some borders, and I am grappling with writer's block on the Manual. Good thing I'm not getting paid to do this or Ralf would have fired me by now - lol. Work continues - I will press on - I have not bailed on everybody, or pulled a "Claude Rains" and ducked out. I have been improving the old files (Release 0.001), and have been holding the new stuff to a higher standard. I have however, run into a minor snag as I get the error "
Error Number: 0x80040707 Description: Dll function call crashed: ISRT.VerGetFileVersion" when trying to update my copy of F.T. Pro to 2.3. I am using VISTA (I know, it's a pain). I will solve this delemma somehow - and include the troubleshoot in the manual. Anyway - marching forward and moving ahead!!!
