Do NOT install the trial over the top of the EA version. It would be a very silly thing to do. The new trial does nothing but fix a 30 day expiry issue.

A great many people think they are thinking when they are really rearranging their prejudices.

not sure what it is (because to load it would be a "very silly thing to do")

I just thought it might have some new stuff in it. er...maybe not?

YES! YES, THAT WAS THE PROBLEM!

But sadly, so, so sadly, it hasn't actually made a difference to me!

I still get the 31st of may expiry excuse, and it is definately the updated trial version as uploaded on the site recently.

I uninstalled, deleted, obliterated, eliminated ALL the files from the last one before even starting to think about the merest possibility of considering the download of the updated version, so it couldn't have left anything behind at all. This includes the old registry files which are recreated by the new version anyway, so that was safe.

Are you sure the updated trial has replaced the download link of the old one? there is absolutely no evidence anywhere of what version it is, no '1.1's in the corner or anything, so it seems exactly the same as the last one.


musttt...test....my levels......urghh. dyyying....slow, and painful.....torture.


please, moderator or some other TGC employee person (the bloke hired to clean the floor will do), let me know what you plan to do about this by posting a reply or emailing me at

Oh, another really little thing.

On the 'help' bar at the top, you guys got 'about' and 'credits' round the wrong way!
