Hi Luis, you're getting that with the trial version not the actual final release version, is that correct?

I think there is probably some conflict with the very initial released beta version.

The public beta version has not expired yet so you can continue to run the public beta for now.

You did great Martin. I knew what you said... Just to be sure, my "hahahhahaaaa" wasnt "at you".... I could have done without making my post. I'm going to delete it because it doesnt belong.

Michel,

Correct, I got this error with the trial version.

Hi Luis, I've sent you a private message.

Hello, I'm having a similar problem with the trial complaining about a clock mismatch. I messed with the MoI beta for a couple months on my previous computer-- a few days ago I got a new Macbook Pro (completely fresh install, no migration) and stuck the last beta (Jun 1st release) on it, which I think I opened once. I'd really like to give the trial a shot; any chance of some kind of workaround? Oh, I am running Mountain Lion DP4, so perhaps the issue is related to that. Anyway, I'd be happy to help diagnose; I'm eager to check out the final version!

Thanks,
Will

Hi Will, there's really no difference between the 30-day trial version and the last public beta, so you can just continue to run that last public beta for the moment instead of the trial. There seems to be some problem with the 30-day trial right now where it gets confused on some people's machines. I will be looking at reworking it slightly to try and avoid that.

The actual full release version (the purchased one, not the trial) does not have any kind of expiration mechanism in it at all and so it is not affected by that problem.

Congrats, Michael, a lot of folks have been asking for this, nice to see it finally coming to fruition!

Great timing! I had not really followed this effort too closely, since I use Windows almost exclusively. But my new Macbook Pro Retina is arriving soon, so suddenly this seems very interesting indeed. I'll be sure to give this a try shortly...and thanks for the dual licensing Michael, very classy of you as always.

Hi Dave, there are some issues with MoI on the new Retina Mac - Apple has introduced a new mechanism there where it basically lies to some apps and tells them that their window is only half as big as it really is so and then displays it as doubled up in size in order to avoid making things like controls too small on the screen.

Right now they did not seem to include any method to turn that mode on or off for every kind of app, so you will probably end up with MoI looking kind of weird and blocky since it will force it to use that "half size and then stretched up" display method.

You can avoid that if you set the screen to the real full resolution, and you need to use a separate utility to do that since Apple decided to not include that in the regular display settings, see this thread for some info:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=5211.1

So anyway that will be one issue that you will see on that one particular Mac model right now.

Just got my license through for the program;

Thanks again Michael for making this available for mac users.

I'm sure all the hard work will be worth it.

Thanks very much for your order Sam, I'm glad that the new Mac version is useful for you! :)

More than useful

MacOS High Sierra 10.13.1 - MoI 2.52

Hello, I am not able to start Moi 2.52 App on High Sierra. The Sever X11 crashes. Any solution?

Best Regards,

Luca

Hi Luca, MoI version 2.5 is an old version released 5 years ago, and I haven't been working on it for several years now. If I remember right the last OS version that runs it is 10.9/Mavericks. The current MoI version is 3.2 which has been updated recently to run on High Sierra, you would need to upgrade to that in order to run on High Sierra.

The other solution to run v2.52 would be to revert your OS to 10.9 or earlier.

- Michael

thank you for your reply.
is the upgrade discounted? I've seen that there is a cutoff date :(

Hi Luca, yes the upgrade is discounted, you don't have to pay full price again. It's the 2nd link on the purchase page.

There's only a cutoff date for an automatic free upgrade if you purchased within a couple of months of a new release. The regular discounted upgrade version does not have any cutoff date.

Thanks, - Michael
