WindowFX 5 Coming Soon! Late?

Hello, I want to know your Road-map for WindowsFX 5, because the waiting starting to become very long...
I'll be happy, just with the Beta version!

Regards.

The beta build is currently awaiting a release slot.  Unless something terrible happens I would expect to see it in January.

Thanks for the quick answer. I hope you're right.

Since Compiz-fusion I've never seen any software doing good effect until... Soon! ^^

I'd say he's pretty much "in the know" on this one...  :)

Indeed, Sorry if this question has cropped up before but do current WFX4 customers get a free upgrade to WFX5 ?

If you bought WindowFX4 after September 9th, 2011 you'll get a free upgrade.

Great, Thanks for that information Zubaz :).

The wait is especially long for those who saw on the site:  Beta mid-November and Release end of December on the windowfx5.com website around October.

I understand it is likely to get the next Thursday slot for the beta release.

For those who have bought it before the 9th september 2011. How can they get the beta? I planned to buy version 5 directly with the release. But I would also like to get the beta (I cant wait no longer xD). Can I just buy version 4 with my account again and will then get access to the beta (when its released) and also the final release? Or would this not work?

I do not have an active objectdesktop-sub.

Hi

I do believe an active ObjectDesktop sub is required to get hold of the Betas.  However you can wait, and get the full and final version 5 free if you bought it before the date of 9th of Sept. 2011.

Cheers

Rub it in, Brad.

There is no beta of version 5, at least not in my OD subscription.  Only days away, however.
