This is actually a problem in our updater. We pulled an update because it did not work all the time. This causes the confusing message. By re-installing on you computer it set all the flags correctly so the message…"

Hi all ...This is not a serious problem but it has been perplexing.I recently bought a new laptop ... primarily for taking to meetings with clients and using it to display rhino/flamingo architectural models to clients.It came with Windows Home 8 ... so I updated my desktop to Windows Pro 8 (up from W7).My laptop kept telling that a critical update for 3.0 was available and each time I downloaded and apparently installed the Sept 11 version of nXt.But my desktop was running the October 18…See More
Eric Clough replied to Scott Davidson's discussion New Service release on 7-10-2012"and on the laptop it is downloading the 09/11 patch today."
Eric Clough replied to Scott Davidson's discussion New Service release on 7-10-2012"and on the desktop when I click on the download above I get the link to the Oct download which is already installed.
stranger still

Eric Clough replied to Scott Davidson's discussion New Service release on 7-10-2012"However, while that is true on my laptop my desktop says I have the October update and that I am up to date but there the latest release is listed as Oct. 18
a little strange.

Eric Clough replied to Scott Davidson's discussion New Service release on 7-10-2012"Hi Scott ...
The patch downloads and installs but then when I check 'about' it tells me that I have the Sept version and I keep getting the update notice.

Eric Clough replied to Ryan Wynott's discussion Installing nXt with Rhino 5.0"I installed nXt a few minutes ago ... went through all the stuff, loading R4 and then inserting the Fl2 CD and seem to now have nXt running alright ... I have enough room on my HD to leave well enough alone if this will not cause a problem in the…"
Diego Navarro replied to Eric Clough's discussion Plant material"They are really doing something odd there. Looks like you need flamingo for Lands and viceversa. So, if I want to render trees from Lands with another render will be difficult, but if I want trees in flamingo I need Lands... odd."
Eric Clough replied to Ryan Wynott's discussion Installing nXt with Rhino 5.0"Hi Scott ...
Is there going to be a fix for this or do I have to also install R4 on my new laptop in order to use nXt?
Will my new R5 release take care of the problem? It should arrive in the mail any time soon. I am at somewhat of a loss about what…"
Eric Clough replied to Ryan Wynott's discussion Installing nXt with Rhino 5.0"Yes, I just experienced the same problem.
On my desktop I simply added the eval version while waiting for my order for the new one to arrive. It came in fine and left Flamingo nXt installed though I have not attempted to use it yet.
But, on my new…"
Nick Perez replied to Eric Clough's discussion Plant material"Thank you Eric, I completely agree. Seems a bit backwards to me as well. "
Eric Clough replied to Eric Clough's discussion Plant material"I have used Asuni Cad's Land Design plug-in for Rhino and it does seem to have a rather large plant library though I have only tried a few trees so far. The leaves seem to be too large for the scale of the tree but I have not attempted any…"
Nick Perez replied to Eric Clough's discussion Plant material"Good day Eric!
I have also found it a bit frustrating that the extensive plant library found in Flamingo 2 does not exist in NXT. Specially since I work for a plant nursery and I would love to be able to render plants together with the rack designs…"
Eric Clough replied to Eric Clough's discussion Plant material"I have downloaded the Lands Design plug-in for Rhino (beta) and it looks promising ... seems to include a large nXt compatible plant library ... no idea what it will cost but their other software (VisualArq) was fairly reasonable so I have hope that…"
Eric Clough replied to Eric Clough's discussion Plant material"Well, never mind ... I recently actually purchased nXt and simply forgot a discussion a year ago about previous plant libraries not working with nXt. So, if I want to use the old plant libraries I have to render with Flamingo 2.
One of the things I…"

I like the new plant editor and the few library trees I can access but ...I have lost access to all the plant libraries I had with Flamingo previously. Flamingo nXt reports that there are none. I can see from searching that there are many in my system ... search does not tell me where the files actually are, though.Do you have any hints about how I can get them recognized by nXt?thanks, ericSee More

I have not used this newsgroup previously but I have a question so I'll try it.
NXT loads into Rhino 5 just fine but not into Rhino 4 ... how do I get it into there?
thanks
