Hi all,

I'm tweaking my Codex screen saver, and have a Beta available if anyone is interested in trying it out and letting me know how it works. I would also like to know what version of Windows you're running, and what video card you have:

Just unzip and put the codex.scr file in your main Windows directory. Thanks.

I've had a little feedback, and fixed a few minor bugs. This should be really close to what I'm going to release:

I found out how to cause an error:

-Simply uncheck all of the alphabets when configuring

causes this error:


CODEX caused a divide error in module CODEX.SCR at 0177:0040496e.

I've found the best way to test software is to try even the stupid, counter-intuitive stuff. Pretend a little kid is playing around in stuff he doesn't know about .
