@afjweb, the first post states "while stocks last", so without a live inventory ticker, i don't think there can be a set deadline.
@softwizz, i bought the bonanza package here and can also verify plant life works fine on vista (and tree magik, dark shader, dark lights, cart shop 4, too; haven't tested the rest yet). unfortunately, many demos don't work as smoothly as actual/final products, which would make anyone hessitant to make purchases such as this but, while i wouldn't personally guarantee all products invovled would work fine for you since all our systems are unique in various aspects, i seriously doubt you (with the author's and the rest of the community's help) couldn't get things going one way or another. meanwhile, if you're determined to get the DEMO running, start with updating everything (vista, ie, display/graphics card drivers, etc) if you haven't already. personally, i'd just take the plunge (which i did without trying any of the demos here first
). good luck, either way!
side note: it's curious that it shows a display depth of 15(?) bit in the plant-life demo "requirements". i didn't know that existed. heh.
@mobiius, i'm on a vista 64 "home premium" system here (and, as mentioned, everything runs fine, so far for me, too) and maybe it's different, but i'm showing SP2 here and you're on SP1? i'm just curious if SP1 for vista 32 is most current for you?
