I'll add it to my list and take a look at it, no promises on how fast I'll get it packaged though.

Great! Thanks!

Great! Thanks!

update for ya

so Stevo and I both have different versions of Viking 1.8 packaged, our build dependencies are a bit different

they both seem to open fine, but at least in my testing (opening and poking around) right now they both seem to work
I am waiting to talk with Stevo some more on the build dependency differences still.

would you be willing to test each and let us know if one works (functions) differently then the other?
you'd just have to install one, test it, uninstall, install the other, and test it

[SwampRabbit]

Great! Thanks!

I hope you're still watching this, but Viking 1.8.0 was sent for inclusion to the MX-17/18 and MX-19 Test Repo.

Hi there. Sorry I missed your message from May 19. I've just installed Viking 1.8 from the MX test repo and it's working fine. Thank you very much for your trouble, I appreciate it.
