Okay, I'm lost

The extras DVD:

Tutorials Folder

Piston Folder

Piston.zip

 

I have extracted the Piston.zip file to it's own folder on my hard drive.

I have opened Piston Tutorial/Piston Tutorial.html

I get the active x popup on my browser page, I click to allow (use this control)

I get the "play bar" for the tute... nothing more.

 

I need to make a working piston. I'm sad. I can't see how to do it. I want a make piston button.

 

Uh... Help?

What exactly are you stuck on.

[oakchas]

The tute won't play, Bruce. I can open the project and decipher... the tute might help me decipher better.

 

I've got enough mental horsepower to figure it out, but with age comes a certain desire for efficiency, IE:not excercising all the brain cells at once so as to not require a nap mid afternoon.

 

So, bottom line: All I really wanna do is play the tute, and it won't "go"

It may use the WINK software. Perhaps you need to install that?

[oakchas]

nah, Ken it's camtasia. And should play through SWF which I have installed... I'm currenly downloading the original from gene's post. Just wanted to avoid DL'ing a 46 MB zip. Even with DSL (slow DSL) it's a lonnnng DL.

 

Thanks though, I'll let you know if the DL version works.

Download version works... apparently, the file PistonTutorial.swf is missing from the extras DVD.

Maybe you are missing the Codec that it was recorded with?

 

Ensharpen Codec

Nope, just the fact that the file was missing.
