I occasionally open up older versions of PreForm for a walk down memory lane. It’s incredible how much has changed in just a few years.

Are there any dates to these older versions? I wish I still kept mine :\

Hello Edward,
I’ve tried to get the dates, but please thake them as approx. references, because these are the dates when I’ve stored the .exe files. But I hope this will help to have an idea about the periods.

Best regards,
Mattia

That’s great! Cheers :slight_smile:

Hello. I’m adding here the new links where to find the last versions (for PC Win only). I can’t edit anymore the first post… pity.

Hi Mattia,
Thanks for your work here. I absent mindedly updated from Preform 2.9 to 2.10 today and found the new version won’t run on my PC (2-year old Win7 machine). Luckily I still had the download file for 2.9 so I could revert to the old version of Preform. You are doing everyone a favor here. Thanks!

-Andy Hudson

Was that 2.10 or 2.10.1? Version 2.10 hit a bug in a couple of versions of Intel’s graphics drivers for Windows 7. We released the 2.10.1 version with a workaround for that issue. So if you hit that problem with 2.10, you should try upgrading to 2.10.1.

If you saw the issue with 2.10.1, then I’d really like more details.

Sorry we didn’t catch this one before shipping 2.10, but the particular combination of Intel graphics chips and drivers that had the bug is actually pretty rare.

Hello Andy,
Glad to be usefull. I’ve added to the last list the latest releases. I’ve missed the 2.10.1, but already have the 2.10.2 that solve the graphic cards issues and works for the new matte grey resin (v03), too.
Best regards,
Mattia

I’ve opened a “Firmware older versions” thread. Sorry they start only from 1.14.21 for the Form2. Hope that in a future it will be more useful.
