* * * GRAVITY NEWS * * * NEWS 01/17/2009 January 2009 - Gravity Open Source development at SourceForge is active again. (Thanks Richard) Some long standing bugs and annoyances have been fixed already. Always check the SourceForge Web Site for news and to download the latest Open Source version. All open source information will be at the SourceForge site (not at this site) SourceForge Gravity Page Web Page http://mpgravity.sourceforge.net/ Gravity Versions 2.7.1 and above are only officially supported for Windows XP. There are reports that it runs ok in Windows Vista, but there is no developer support for Vista at this time. No more additions or fixes will be made to the older versions compiled for Windows 95/98/NT/2K. YOU CAN HELP GRAVITY - You can help by providing feedback, bug reports, and testing new versions. Comments are welcome and wanted. SourceForge has bug tracking reports and forums. If you have a SourceForge account you can contact the developers by email. Or you can e-mail me, just like the old days. E-mail Tom nfn03862@naples.net This web site will not be maintained, except for major news announcements. However, until I move things to SourceForge this may be the only documentation of Gravity features after Version 2.5. Some of the information is good. There are some dead links that I will not fix. I also realize there are people using old versions of Gravity, so everything is still here. Older Super Gravity Version 2.6 (and Gravity Versions 2.3 and 2.5) can be downloaded at the link provided in the DOWNLOAD section. > > > Help for Version 2.5 INSTALL PROBLEMS < < < 08/10/02 Online Manual for Dutch Users Online Dutch Manual by SatCP 02/28/02 New Mirror Site http://gravity.tbates.org/ - Vhosted by sdf.lonestar.org, running Apache on NetBSD-alpha MicroPlanet MicroPlanet officially closed in December 2001, their URLs and e-mail addresses will no longer work.
