    If you want to play the source code you don't need to compile it.

    If your using VBc++ just hit the green arrow at the top.

    HeyJD:

    Play the source code? I assume you mean modifying the source code and/or try out the new beta. And for both of those compiling is needed to try it out.

    The person who compiled it probably compiled it under Debug mode.

    yeah, the beta is pretty slow, is that because its not the sse2 version? and the zoom window's broken, but yes, the new elements are nice additions to play with. love the insulated wire, Can now make 2 pix wide, 4 channel wire!

    Nah, like bchandark said, the guy who posted the .exe must have only compiled in Debug mode. The Release compilation is MUCH faster.

    If it's not using SSE it will be VERY slow.
