LIQUID MEDIA System Requirements
As is always the case with complex Multi-Media software, best results will be achieved using well-configured computers. While effective presentations may still be composed on more humble systems, we strongly recommend the following:


SkunkLabs. LiquidMedia Editor (The Editor requires more resources than the Player.)

• Microsoft® Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP or ME (And Windows NT® 4.0 or later versions, but only if they can run DirectX 7.0 or above.)
• Pentium II MMX or AMD, 350Mhz processor or better. (500Mhz would be preferable!)
• 64 Mb of RAM, but preferably 128 Mb or more.
• 2Mb of Video RAM.
• 120 megabytes of hard-disk space (more if you wish to load all the extra clip-art), but preferably of 3 Gb capacity (and the faster the drive the better).
• 8 megabyte Graphics card (hardware acceleration is preferable), particularly if you wish to “fly” 3d objects around the screen.
• 256-color display adapter (although a 24-bit color display adapter would be preferable) and compatible monitor.
• A Sound Card is recommended.
• You will require a CD-ROM drive and at least 100Mb of free disk space for the installation (if installing from CD).
• DirectX 7.0 or better & Direct Media 6.0a or better.

Windows 98 and 2000 includes DirectX, but Windows 95 did not. Similarly, NT machines require their own version of DirectX... Liquid Media will check this for you. Alternatively, you can download the latest versions of DirectX (for free!)
from various sites on the web, including Microsoft’s own sites. For example, you can get DirectX 8.0 (as of Feb 2001) from Microsoft or from SkunkLabs’ own web site:

We recommend that you download DirectX version 8.n ... if you decide
to remain with version 7.n, however, please be aware that you will
also need to have DirectX Media version 7.n installed as well.

Caution: Please also be aware, though, that DirectX 8.0 run-time cannot be easily uninstalled. DirectX is a system component. It cannot be uninstalled without reinstalling your entire Operating System or using a utility such as McAfee Uninstaller, although you can install any version of DirectX over the top of an existing one.

 

SkunkLabs. LiquidMedia Player
The "minimum" requirements to run the player are:
• Pentium MMX or AMD processor or better.
• 64 Mb of RAM, but preferably 128 Mb or more.
• 30 megabytes of hard-disk space
• 4 megabyte Graphics card (hardware acceleration is preferable).
