HyperStudio 5 will play most old HyperStudio stacks, but not the HyperLogo scripts. The HyperStudio Legacy Player will run HyperLogo stacks, but is play-only; you can’t do further editing.

There are actually two sets of players, or two and a half for Mac. For both Windows and Mac, there is a new HS 5 player. Its description says it plays both the new HS 5 stacks, and those made from old versions 3.3 to 4.5. There are also legacy players for both platforms. The Windows legacy player (HyperStudio 4.5 Player) says it will play stacks created on Windows 95 or later from HS versions 3.3 to 4.5. For Mac, there are separate legacy players for stacks made on OSX or Mac Classic. So from the description, yes, either the legacy players or HS 5 players ought to play your 4.5 stacks on your current system, be it Mac or Windows. HyperLogo? I don't know. It's not in HS 5, at least as yet, though there is a grayed out "scripting language" option under Button Actions. So it's possible the new HS 5 player won't run HyperLogo. I would hope that the legacy players, at least, would be able to handle HyperLogo actions. The best way to find out is to download players and try them. The players are free, and I've put links onto my page reviewing HS 5 (HyperStudio Is Back!) to go directly to the players download page for each platform. Give them a try, and then let us know how they worked for you, especially HyperLogo scripts. Chris, I haven’t tried out the players, since I have HS5.

Do HyperLogo scripts run OK? Both PC and Mac? In the 'old" days...updates usually meant re-working some stacks!
