How do yah use it? It hangs when I make a system...

Ok, now it no longer hangs... but I can't see any systems on the screen. The print preview shows me them, and if I click on the screen it usually selects one, but I can't see the actual systems on the page...

K.
The Three Most Important Questions:
1) Is it easy to use?
2) Is it free?
3) Where can I get it for free?

1. Yes.
2. *Technically*
3. Argherall (sp?) uploaded it to these boards awhile ago. You can find it somewhere, provided the link wasn't lost in the purge. In any case, you may ask Mindset.

Ok, it looks to me like my camera isn't moving either
I click and get lucky and end up selecting a system. I think maybe it's somehow offscreen, and I click the Go To button. The little co-ords talking about the camera don't change...

It is Argheraal...

No, it is not free.. but i bought it and donated it to ESUS for members to use..

And it is easy to use.. help file is easy to understand.

JJR?..
What video card do you have? the problem must likely be because of your video card.. try downloading the latest drivers for it.
This are the requirements:

* Intel PentiumÃ‚Â® III class PC or comparable with 128 meg ram. Pentium IV class processor or comparable and 256 meg ram highly recommended.
* 100 meg free hard disk space
* Microsoft Ã‚Â® Windows 98/Me/2000/XP.
* A video card featuring OpenGL graphics acceleration is highly recommended.

{Late Edit}
Hmm.. Well, i discovered one thing: if i set my screen resolution higher than 1028x780 i get problems with Astrosynthesis, so, if you have a higher res and have problems try lowering it to 1024x780..

Pentium 3, forget exact amount, but it does stuff like Doga...
Gigs of space
Windows 2000
Voodoo 5 or 6, I run Starscape on OpenGL

Screen res is at 800x600...

Can someone link me the download again? Maybe a reinstall will fix it.

I would be interested in using the Argherall Map Making program as
soon as it is available. I would like to map the Nelchizedeke Cluster;
my system in the Andromeda Galaxy.
