While use turing on vista I have discovered some errors

#1 Turing can not play mps files on vista with turing
#2 Turing can not set .t and a turing file

Here are thing turing also needs to improve...

#1 Pic.Scale can not scale past 1400 for the x value and 1400 for the y (It's not actually 1400 but around there)
#2 When making a standalone program The detal on the generated stand alone program say turing 4.044 file not 4.1 or what ever the version it should be.
#3 The number Of pictures that you are able to have should be increased from 1000
#4 when useeing pic.rotate if you are not using a square picture then some of the picture gets cut off as it turns

These are just some errors and things that need to be improved for turing if this is going to be used for a longer time. Anyone else find any errors? (using vista or things that need to be improved)

You will not see holtsoft fix this because Turing is no longer being updated. Unless someone else takes over the rights of Turing and starts updating it again then you will not see your problem be fixed.

One question, why do you have vista anyways, Its horrible Sad

No it's not if you actually know how to use it...
People don't using vista only because They aren't open to new things and ideas. Partly because they Know how to used what they already know but are not willing to learn. Windows Vista is Better.

For the improvements, I don't think any of them are actually Vista specific.

And we were not (yet?) given the source code for Turing.

Actually I have Vista and I have the .t files associated with turing. You probably don't have it installed, just extracted from the zip.
Not sure what .mps files are, but if you mean .mp3 then they are compatible with both 32 and 64 bit.

Sorry yea I mean Mp3 files. Turing can't play them. I have Tried many Times with different sizes for mp3 file but when useing Muisc.PlayFileLoop (music.mp3) Well once the music begins to play turing freezes.

yet when i use xp the same program works...

Check to see the version of turing you have an each one. Turing 4.1 works with mp3 files on my computers that have Vista.

Do you have turing installed on your computer, or are you just unzipping it and running it?

I also have it running off my usb and it works fine with everything, It might have something to do with your computer and not turing.

What version of vista do you have?

i find Turing runs a bit slower on vista than xp (dual booting) and has more trouble compiling

If .t files are not associated with Turing, download and install Turing 4.0.5. The newer versions are not installers, they are standalone EXE files. Install 4.0.5 and replace the 4.0.5 EXE with the 4.1 EXE.

The version of Vista shouldn't matter. They are all really the same at the base. The only difference between versions is the Aero effects and some other features.

Run turing in administrator mode to allow it to access the registy and associate respective files.
