Isadora 2.0 - Responses and Reactions from the Community

[Armando]

CONGRATULATIONS MARK AND THE WHOLE TEAM!!!!!!!!

I LOVE THE NEW SEXY ISADORA'S DRESS AND THE NEW FEATURES!!!!! I'LL UPGRADE FOR SURE IN ALL THE PLACES WHERE I TEACH AND GIVE WORKSHOPS. AND ISADORA WILL BE THE CENTRAL PIECE OF SOFTWARE IN THE DANCE AND NEW MEDIA LAB I'M SETTING UP IN MY NEW JOB AS AN ASSOCIATED  PROFESSOR IN UNIVERSITÉ DU QUEBEC A MONTREAL (CANADA).

ISADORA 2.0 YEAH!

[laurentR]

Joke or error? Am I the first or the only one?
Tonight, impatient about this so expected new jewel, I take a look to the forum, then to the Pre-realeases page of the website and what do I see? The 2.0.0b1 available!!!!
I download it, nervously install it in a fresh folder, run it and... A splash screen telling me " Welcom to Isadora 1.5" !
No, no... Probably a mistake... I click and  discover a very familiar soft  looking just like the 1.5.3f28... No new feature, no fancy dress...
Before starting to cry I check the "about" menu wich is telling me 2.0.0b1 !!!
???!!!???
And the save function is not disable while I did not upgrade... I am for sure in front of a 1.5 pretending to be a 2...

[Reinhard]

same to me.
after weeks and weeks of waiting can't stand no joke.

Dear All,

The pre-release version of 2.0.0b1 does not include the 2.0 features until you purchase the upgrade.

In addition, I do not yet have a demo version of 2.0 that allows to you try the new features. That's coming in a few days.

Users with an existing license can download and use this version, and all the features they currently have (e.g., Core Video upgrade) will be there. But the new stuff won't appear until you purchase the upgrade.

I'm sorry if this transition phase is a little confusing. We wanted to increment the version number to 2.0 because we're letting those who have joined the early adopter program purchase licenses now. We want the copy they have to say 2.0.

I'll have added a note to the pre-releases page about this to clarify make things clearer.

Best Wishes,

Mark

@Mark: Question about 2.0 upgrade non-USB licensing: is this going to be the good old 3 licenses per year deal?

Thanks.

@bruper,

Do you by any chance have "v002 Screen Capture" installed? It seems to have a problem with 2.0\. Another user was getting the same crash, uninstalled  "v002 Screen Capture", and then everything was fine.

Please check for this.

Otherwise, file a bug report and **compress (please!)** a crash report and send it to us as a bug report.

Best Wishes,

Mark

Dear All,

Just a small update. I was hoping to process the remaining early adopters tonight, but I am stuck at a hotel in Copenhagen with an internet connection that is only barely useable. I will be back home in Berlin tomorrow, and will be processing these orders starting at 10am or so. Those of you who are waiting can expect to see your upgrade notices then.

Also, for those of you who got 2.0.0b1 -- there will be an new build tomorrow fixing some things that the first batch of early adopters found. It will be 2.0.0b2.

Thanks for the patience

Good Night,

Your intrepid leader,

Mark

[Bill Cottman]

Rest intrepid leader!

[mark]

@eight: to answer your question about 3 per year: yes.

[gavspav]

Do we need a 2.0 section in the forum?

[bruper]

@mark: YES, IT WORKS, it was in fact "v002 Screen Capture" Thank you very much!! by the way, in the bug report page there is not yet a 2.0 selection possibility, I wanted to do it yesterday but then I choose not to, to avoid confusion

[mark]

@bruper - yes, I'm looking into why this came up now. There is some sort of conflict with a piece of code called an TaskWrapper, which Isadora wasn't using before but is now.

Will fix the bug report page presently. Thanks for the tip.

In any case, glad it works.

All the Best,
Mark

Got it, thanx Mark! Great, didnt expect the new FFGL Effects, trying them right out now. Really fun! Or is Isadora loading my Plugins from Resolume?

I really should be finishing some animation work, but Isadora 2.0 came in today Works like a charm here. Can't wait to dig in deeper, thanks Mark and team it looks great, definitely worth the wait!
