Default RockSim v9 Bug Fix Coming

I got this in the latest Apogee newsletter early this morning:

RockSim v9 Bug Fix Coming

I just found out that there is a minor bug-fix to RockSim that will be available to all RockSim users in the next day or two. The biggest fix is that you'll be able to print out graphs again. As soon as I get a complete list of fixes, I'll post them on the Apogee web site at: http://www.apogeerockets.com/rocksim_history.asp

The other news is that we're testing the demo edition of RockSim v9. Up until now, our free demo was of the older version 8.0. We wanted to make sure we got all the bugs worked out before sending out the v9 trial because we didn't want people to think that the software has a lot of bugs (it had a few minor issues, but nothing major). Watch for that announcement coming soon.

Scott,

Do you help Tim with his web site?

No, I'm not the one that does his site.

Yes, I guess "help" doesn't quite fit the description.

FWIW, I think the Apogee site is one of the most professional looking web sites devoted to rocketry, in both style and content. It's not amateurish at all. I think that it is better than NAR's, and certainly better than TRA's (and I am a TRA member). Although TRA was planning to revamp their site, at least a while back they did.

Do you dabble in web sites, or is it part of your professional suite of activities?

Greg

I'm in IT, but I just do hardware stuff and network support. I only dabble in web sites. My sites (other than the vBulletin forum here) are old FrontPage templates from around 2001 or 2002. I am by no means an HTML guru.

Yes, the Apogee site is nice. Anything is better than what the NAR has unfortunately.

Sounds like me. What little HTML I know is old stuff now. Then again, I hate all this web 2.0 crap! Mostly those little boxes that keep popping up while my mouse moves across the screen. Who ever came up with that needs a bullet in the head (for the good of society).

Apogee just sent out the Newsletter notice to my inbox, and it mentions the RockSim update. It's described as 9.0.5 build 80. I'm running 9.0.4 build 78, but my updater is not finding the new build. I'm wondering if the new build has actually been put on the server yet...

Fire off an email to Tim. It's showing in the "fixes" section on the Apogee site.

The new build never came down for me either via the update feature when I just tried it .....

I've been checking daily for it.
