That's really great news to hear This warms my tiny little heart! We have been working ridiculously hard on this release with this goal in mind! Next update, I am planning to spend a lot of time finding memory leaks and more crashes, with the goal of having even better (more stable) performance.

Used the Preview on my Mac and ... No Kernel panic! (I still hesitate though!) -now where is the viewer to install?

SingleSparq

never-mind found it but http://gamesalad.com/products/creator is not where I would tend to look.

Yaaay -- I'm so happy to hear that. It's not *quite* perfect but we're getting there

Thanks for the feedback!

Creator is still getting slow after a period of time.

dmcdowell

Yeah ... we are working on that. This release we focused on fixing a ton of crashes and performance enhancements. Next release, we are going to focus more on memory not leaking in the creator.

I can't figure out how to install the viewer. I downloaded the package but it didn't come with instructions. =P

You guys must be pretty tired now and happy that this update is out. I wouldn't want to have to figure out how to kill the memory leaks though and I'm learning programming myself. Blegh. That's one thing I'm not looking forward to.

If your talking about obj c then its not that hard actually. You can drain the memory with only a couple lines of code. Apple has a very useful resourse on this in the developers resources.
