That must be what's in my box of scraps.
It says "8" and not much else. The ref to VTwin in the install notes
for the plugins was a blast from the past. Wonder if He still has His
fancy blue bike... mehehe.

I find that really weird, don't you?? That such an old Brother format
is not able to be opened on older Brother software??
/puzzled...
I jumped from XPHome to XPPro and now can't run all the Hus3D
functions. I get Organiser and the freestanding programs to run, just
not the "suite" part of it. So, when loading it on XPPro, I just
exclude the suite and can have the other stuff if I want.
Whomever cracked it, cracked it for XPHome 2 and 3. Even then I had to
run the hasp update from the Hus site as well.
I think we've seen the last of the cracked stuff for any sewing
programs. Artista and Viking have been quick to catch on to "updating"
so that people think they are missing out if they don't have the
latest and greatest. I am still trying to find something in Hus5D that
I can't make VIP do (within hoop boundaries for my machine).
Agh, rebuilds... doancha jus' lurve 'em... not!
I'm nearly 7 months into my "testing" phase of the new job.
I'm not keen to revisit that degree of stress again.../grin

There really is no "holy grail" of software for embroidery that I have
ever seen. One just has to learn what one wants and then find the
software that you can get to do it.
I always cringe when Ladies ask for "the best digitising program".
There isn't a clear answer. The "best" is the one you know how to
drive and delivers the results YOU are able to extract from it - and
are happy with.
There is no magic button that reads your mind and delivers.

Can't say I've used it or even seen it. We have Babylock overlockers
here, but not the embroidery machines.
Viking have just gone daft in the head with their behemouth setup for
HusxD now. Totally brain dead. When my machines die or my VIP dongle
dies, I'm going to have to seriously think about what I'm going to do
with my day. I've never installed the cracked VIP from here, not sure
where it was up to with updates.
