How to enable Lion Fish?

Spyder · 02-24-2002, 07:56 PM

Howdy!

Up to this point I had been using the Plus! 3 Fish version and I've held off buying the full version because I wanted to wait for the Lion Fish. Well the Lion Fish is here and I downloaded the demo wanting to see what it was like, but I can't select it?? This is more or less the pivotal aspect of my buying it but I'm not even allowed to see what it looks like first? Whats that all about?

You really should have purchased before the price went up.

I think Jim is only interested in the demo helping you see if the thing runs correctly on your hardware.

If the aquarium as a whole works, then so will the lionfish.

You don't get to see a lot of the fish. You just get to see if it works.

If the lionfish was in the demo, why would anyone with an 8MB 3D card buy the thing?

There are snapshots of the Lionfish at my website.

To see if its worth it? I mean, great..it runs on my hardware, but I'd like to see what I'm buying before I buy it.

And with all due respect, I found the pictures myself before posting, but seeing a picture isn't my point and that doesn't answer my original question anyway.

Sorry, Spyder, but if I gave away all the fish in the demo, then no one would buy the full version.

You'll LOVE the Lionfish! Trust me.

Yeah...it looks pretty amazing

Spyder · 02-25-2002, 03:36 PM

*sigh* arguement makes sense

regardless..i guess i'll have to wait until a new trial serial shows up on the web and then use that to evaluate whether or not I want to buy based on the new lion fish.

thanks for the answers

Trial serial. – Is that what they're called? Apparently I've been using the wrong name for a long time...

Hope your *trial* yields satisfactory results.

no..but thats what i call them. in cases like this, i use them to see if i like it. if i do, i buy it...if not, i delete it. *shrug*

Jim Sachs · 02-25-2002, 03:56 PM

That's very noble of you to delete it. Most people don't.

Spyder,

You mean after everything you have seen so far, you still can't tell about this program??

We don't need no stinking bat rays!
