10 years ago the spams was prospered , and almost all users received 30 spams per day via mail, and many spyweres made setting on computers against wishes, and attacked servers.
Just MICROSOFT's servers was been attacked by unknown authors and by trojans 10 years ago.

message to Lyc and to Aexion:
I found new hint about how to been attacked Aexion's servers.
8 years ago, I hadn't antivirus, and my computer was been infected with trojan spywere whick may attack other server that to seem that I attacks servers. That's Al was believed that I would been hackers, and reported me to Aexion, else he would been right.
Now I having NORTON antivirus, so I won't attack neither servers, and won't modify neither file on servers.
Else I so sorry of Al and Aexion that I wrote several offenses and complaints
I felt offensed for fake accusation.

I am almost sure it is the art theft issue. Probably DA gave no help to solve it.

Hi
Just been sent here by the chatroom. Just started working with Chaotica 1.5.6 in LinuxMint 17.1. Program runs and renders fine on my 64bit AMD 4gb of ram but if I try to create a new flame or add iterations it just crashes and disappears. Can't actually alter anything or do anything creative.
Any ideas
Thanks

please try grabbing 1.5.8 by modifying the download URL, it might resolve the crash issue thanks!

lyc In reply to Convincedspirit [2015-05-27 19:00:03 +0000 UTC]
hi, does the problem still happen with the older 1.5.5? (you can change the download url to get the older version)
i ask because 1.5.6 had some small crashbugs which are fixed in 1.5.7, i need to get the newer builds up on linux like right now!
thanks for the report, i'm in aposhack again now by the way.

sorry for the super late reply, and thanks for letting me know!
the linux build is easily the fastest of all, if i didn't develop in windows i'd possibly switch to linux

Jakeukalane In reply to lyc [2015-03-05 14:38:35 +0000 UTC]
I had crashes also when using parameters of different versions. That happens usually? thanks!

Thank you + Dank dir for adding me to your watch list - Although there's currently 'just' some output from those usual bulb programs
I'll add you to my list as well - and hope that you will find the time again to provide some creation made with one of your nice programs.
