What's has changed in FX_Composer2_2.52.0319.1250.exe ?

Hello,

In the past I downloaded and installed:

FX_Composer2_2.51.0827.1525.exe

I see there is now a new version available:

FX_Composer2_2.52.0319.1250.exe

What has changed in this latest version ? (No info on this available ?)

(Also I see there is now a free shader debugger available ! Huuray ! Since
my trail expired ! )

Bye,

Actually on the website it appeared as if the shadow debugger was a seperate
installer...

But it's actually a bundle:

FX_Composer2_Shader_Debugger_Bundle_2.52.0319.1250.exe

Gonna try that one instead... now

Bye,
Skybuck.

 

FX Composer 2.5 installed.

nVidia Shader Debugged tries to install.

It show an activation menu... I choose "non commercial use".

The license is nice:

"

only.

I click activate... error happens:

"Software Activation server is busy. Please try again later.

Read Error from network (-105)
No error (errno: 5)
"

Shitty. Gonna press ok.

Bye,
Skybuck.

 

Ok,

After pressing "ok" it goes back to the activation menu so it allows me to
try again.

The second time worked !

Fingers crossed

Bye,
Skybuck.

 

Ok,

It installed and it seems to be working ok on Windows XP X64 Professional
Edition.

(The fragment shader I wrote doesn't seem to work on Direct3D... but it does
work on OpenGL just like last time. Could be on old driver issue or
incompatible shader who knows )

Anyway... it doesn't seem to install any services so that's good.

The msiexec.exe is still in memory... probably cashed by windows...

So far so good.

Bye,
Skybuck.
