Timed .dreams no longer work.

I recently bought a new machine, Intel core I7 4 gigs of ram on a Nvidia G-force GTX-295 and though Dreamscapes did the timed dreams perfectly on the old P4 1 gig with an old ati all in wonder 9500, they don't work on the new machine but stay in the single display mode. Any ideas? I've updated all video drivers.

It's not your machine...triggered, or timed Dreams do not work in DeskScapes 3

I wonder when they intend to fix it? The timed/triggered dreams are really nice, not to mention all the work you guys went through to make them. I would think that a bug that serious would have been sorted out when they beta tested it. Thanks for responding, hopefully the admins will see this and put a bug in someone's ear for a fix.

It isn't actually a bug.  It is by design as a change in design removed the logic to control those.

We plan to introduce a replacement for triggered dreams in DS 3.2

So what happens with the 15 or 20 triggered dreams we already have? I'm sorry, but it seems ludicrous to remove functionality and call it an improvement. So this "replacement" is it going to support the art we already have? Makes me think about the way M$ "improved" the pocket pc. Now nobody wants one, just my 2 cents. ;)

aspillman... give Neil some time, his comment shows a fix is in the works.

DeskScapes has come a long way and it gets better with each update.:thumbsup:

And hey, I actually have 2 pocket PCs that I use every day. Ya, I'm a geek. :grin:

Okay, I'll do that. I must be a geek too as I have a half dozen with various degrees of non-functionality :) My fav is an HP Ipaq 2795b that I used a hacked driver on so it does 32 gb sd cards. Add the 32 gb compact flash it also has and it has more capacity than my laptop. Been stuck in the hospital a couple times and man it is borrrring! ;)
