MARTHI Very kind developer! On two occasions, he corrected his app during less than a day. Recommended!

HELIOS9 Just checked the realtech-VR forum. A post there says, "SkyORB 08 has been released (1.8.0). Note: It has been only tested for MacOSX 10.5 Intel and Windows XP and Vista (Geforce 8 on both)." So, I guess, it's not intended for OS 10.4. Nor PPC Macs either, perhaps?

HELIOS9 realtech-VR just informed me that they're fixing a SkyORB 1.8 issue that's particular only to PowerPCs running OS 10.4x, and a fix will come shortly.

JAVIERHZ The problem seems to be graphic card related. It doesn't work with Intel GMA 950. I've tested on different machines and found it works fine when not using an Intel graphic card.

ANDYS I installed it with no problems and was very impressed with the quality of graphics, the speed of the software and the amount of available information. I will probably only be using 1% of the data provided by this software at any given time, but I can definately recommend it for depth of information, layout and overall "wow" factor. Great graphics. MacBook Pro, 1GB RAM, 10.4.7
