Hi people. The TViXiE site has now been down for a while and I am uncertain of what will happen in the future. I know that towards the end, the site had become infiltrated by a small number of people who had managed to fill every thread with SPAM. It became impossible for me to effectively clean up the forum so I asked joma to consider new filters for the forum. I know that in the past, the forum has been closed to new members but things never got as bad as they eventually have become.
I haven't had a reply from him, but since we did all our communication on the site itself, it is therefore no wonder that I never had a reply from him. I will try to get some official reply but in the meantime, I have opened this new thread to discuss the latest version of TViXiE.
I am sending links to both versions (installer and portable) to those who request them and will attempt to give support here until the future of the site can be established.
Which version should I use?
Both versions have the same dependencies and are therefore the same. The fundamental difference is that the portable version can be run directly by expanding the compressed file without the need for 'installing'.
What is the benefit of using the installer version?
A link will be automatically created to the program (found from |START|Programs|TViXiE|)
.tvixie files can be clicked to open TViXiE (but note that only one instance can be run at the same time)
I used to always use the portable version until the start of the 1.3.3 betas and kept them in a TEST folder. Something within the program stopped them from working so I switched to the installer and functionality returned.
If you can't use one version, you have the option of using the other. In most cases, we found that this was enough to solve the problem.

UPDATE: Due to the amount of interest I have received so far, I have decided to make the link to both versions available here (http://sdrv.ms/KNDsJP).
