    Alan,

    It appears by original pi3 disc from 2004 was scratched and I had e-mailed tech support. They indicated they do not sell replacement CD’s. My two questions to you are:

    1. When did you stop selling physical CD’s?

    2. Is it no longer needed to install from CD in order to get the organized libraries? They provided me an exe file but I thought I remember reading somewhere you needed to install from CD in order for the organized library to be installed with the program.

    Thanks.

    No, if you download the emitter library zips, you should get the reorganized emitters.

    You’ll find though that since there are now more libraries released after this reorganization than before, the majority of the emitters will not be organized.

    That’s why using the search function of particleView is important. Also, the emitter catalog may be useful.

    Alan.

    Thanks Alan. I was just checking because I am going to need to re-install this program soon since I’m changing hardware on my system.

    I assume the only way to organize the library now is to manually create new groups correct?

    Thanks.
