Thanks for this aaronblood. Looking forward to trying it out, but having no success in getting it started.
D/L'd it on 2 different computers (both with .NET Framework 2.0 installed), and on one computer I get an instruction to install .NET Framework, and on the other computer I get this message:-
"Cannot continue. The application is improperly formatted. Contact the application vendor for assistance."
If it helps, here is a copy of the Error Details:-

Both computers are running Windows XP Home.
Sorry that my first response is to report an apparent problem, but I do like the look of the programme, and am keen to try it out. As the computers are networked, I am planning on running SH4 on one, and viewing on the other (as you suggested to Darkfin). That's the idea anyway, but I'll have to get it started first, and then try it out
Cheers
