This patcher utility will update a version of Specular Infini-D 3.0 to version 3.0.1.
****************
IMPORTANT NOTES
****************
1. Be sure to make a copy of Infini-D 3.0 before you run this utility as it operates on the original version and will not create a backup copy for you.
2. Using the patcher utility on any version of Infini-D other than version 3.0 will effectively destroy that version.
************
INSTRUCTIONS
************
1. Double-click the program to launch it.
2. Click "Continue" at the startup screen.
3. You will be presented with the standard open dialog. Navigate to your BACKUP COPY of Infini-D 3.0 and click "Open."
4. The patcher will work it's magic - turning Infini-D 3.0 into Infini-D 3.0.1. Note that it might take as much as several minutes for the patcher to complete AFTER the progress bar reaches the end.

FIXES IN 3.0.1
************
* Problems with End caps and extrusions or EPS imports have been fixed.
* Spotlights with gels/masks can now be copied and pasted without causing save problems.
* Saving files with data blocks larger than 32K can now be saved and loaded. (i.e., DXF files.)
* Fixed some problems with the smooth velocity animation assistant.
* Improved the handling of interpolation after undo.
* Rails and rail markers now exactly fit the bounding box of curves in the cross-section. Previously they matched the bounding box of the control points. *****WARNING***** object shape will change (perhaps a lot) when edited the first time.
* Cross-section previews are now accurate at ANY point on the path, not just at point nodes.
* Previous, Next Cross Section command (cmd </>) and Lower, Higher Detail (cmd -/+) now available no matter which window is active in workshop.
* Undoing an edit operation after changing from one path view to another (same window, but use view button) no longer gives an incorrect display.
* QuickTime surfaces now update when the world time changes.
* Pasting objects with QuickTime surfaces between multiple, shaded scenes no longer leads to crashes when those scenes are closed.
* The "Get Image" dialog no longer causes possible memory corruption when loading QuickTime movies.
