Version 0.98 not working for me
vekenti:
Hello, I am on Windows 7 64 bit System , and I have a Nvidia GeForce GTS 450 graphics card.
When I try to run Anim8or nothing happens, no window,error,etc pops up. Anyone know whats up? The previous version works just fine , So i don't understand whats wrong with the new version.
Raxx:
Right-click Anim8or.exe and go to Properties, then the Compatibility tab. Try setting the compatibility to Windows XP (Service Pack 3).

Tried that,still just spins for a couple seconds and then nothing,I also tried disabling desktop composition and visual themes,no luck
Raxx:
Personally I've noticed that my antivirus (avast) delayed the startup of Anim8or by several seconds for me. Try disabling yours and starting it. Also make sure you're not running it directly from within the .zip file.

Myself and at least 1 other are having this same problem with win7, although i'm using 32bit. I also have nvidia graphics card. (GeForce 7800GT).
Have you tried build 1103? That works for us, but none of the later progress updates. They do exactly as you say. A few spins of the 'doing something' wheel and thats it. Although, if you look at your running processess, you'll probably see that anim8or is listed as running, and if you ignore that, and try again, anim8or says that autosave wont work because there is already an anim8or running.
So, it does seem to open, but nothing is showing on the desktop.
There is some discussion about this here recently on the forum, (i'll try find a link), where steve describes possible 'windows open gl problems', but as far as i remember, it hasn't really made a difference to builds AFTER 1103.
?? so... you're not the only one with this prob.
Could you try build 1103 and let us know if that one will work on your win7?
EDIT: Heres that link.
