How do I install the Marine Aquarium
from the CD?
To properly install the MAC OS9 Marine Aquarium from
the CD, follow the instructions below:
1. IMPORTANT: Before installing, be sure your anti-virus
software is deactivated for the duration of the installation.
Also, if your computer is a lower end machine, you may
optionally wish to set its color resolution to "thousands
of colors" to improve performance (See "Displays"
under System Preferences, in the Apple Menu).
2. Double-click the CD to open it.
3. Double-click the "OS9" folder and copy
the Marine Aquarium application to your desktop.
4. You may run the Marine Aquarium application right
from the desktop, or move the Marine Aquarium application
to your “Applications” folder.
5. Double-click the Marine Aquarium application to
start the program.
6. To set the Marine Aquarium as your default screen
saver choose Settings from the File menu.
7. Select the “Screen Saver” tab in the Preferences
window.
8. Select the “Use as screen saver” checkbox
(so that a check mark appears in the box).
9. Adjust the amount of time the system must be idle
for the screen saver to start-up by adjusting the slider.
10. Select ‘OK’ to save your settings. You
will be asked if you would like to create a document
in your Startup Items folder. This document will allow
you to continue using Marine Aquarium as a screen saver
whenever your computer starts up without having to remember
to launch the application each time. Select the “Create”
button to create this document.
11. Leave the application running. The application
must be running for the screen saver to function. If
you don’t want to keep the aquarium window constantly
open and running, close it.
12. Don't forget to reactivate your anti-virus software
when you are finished.
[Back to top]
The Marine Aquarium is slow or
freezes.
Slow or frozen graphics are most often caused by low
video resources. The best way to improve performance
is to complete ALL of the following steps:
1. First switch your color resolution from millions
to thousands of colors.
2. If your display colors are already set to thousands
of colors then check the "Economize video memory"
checkbox in the Marine Aquarium preferences. If you
are trying to drive multiple monitors from one video
card then both steps may be necessary.
3. Go to the Marine Aquarium Settings menu and reduce
the "Shimmer" setting.
4. Also, turn off the bubble column and reduce the
number of fish.
5. Lastly, set your Apple Extension settings back to
the OS9 defaults. Click on the Apple Menu, select "Control
Panels" then "Extension Manager". At
the top of the menu, choose "Mac OS 9.x All"
After finishing all of these steps, take each setting
back to default to see where the problem is solved.
Freezing problems have been known to occur on the iMac
DV. Our program does not cause this problem, it happens
to many 3D products. It appears to be a problem in the
Rage128VR chipset. Apple is researching the problem.
If none of the above fixes work for you, please Email
us and include the Frames Per Second that the Marine
Aquarium is running at (This can be found by pressing
the "S" key while the program is running.)
and an OS9 Apple System Report (ASP):
1. Open Apple System Profiler, select File/New Report.
2. Select the standard System Profile, and "Devices
and Volumes" and "Extensions".
3. Save the report to a file.
4. Compress it with stuffit or some other common compression
tool.
5. E-mail it to us with a description of your problem.

Will the Marine Aquarium run on
Apple Macintosh OSX?
Yes. Click HERE for information
on the OSX version.
The Marine Aquarium is mostly dependent on its compatibility
with OpenGL (version 1.2.), which allows the Apple Macintosh
to render 3D graphics. Some older operating systems
for the Apple Macintosh are not compatible with OpenGL,
however, all Mac OSX systems should be compatible.
If you purchase either Macintosh version of the Marine
Aquarium, you will be able to unlock the other version
for free.
[Back to top]
Do I have to purchase the Marine
Aquarium for OSX and OS9 separately?
No.
If you are planning to, or have already purchased either
of the MAC versions of Marine Aquarium, then you can
download the other for free. The keycode for one is
good for both versions.
[Back to top]
Will the Marine Aquarium run on
multiple Monitors?
Yes.

but the program still requests a keycode.
The CD you have acts as the keycode. After installing
the program from the CD, leave the CD in the CD-ROM
drive and start the Marine Aquarium. The program will
read the CD for authorization and you can now run the
full version of the Marine Aquarium. After the initial
authorization, the CD does not have to be in the CD-ROM
drive.
When you download newer versions of the Marine Aquarium,
repeat the process above to authorize the new version.

Installation
I cannot get the Marine Aquarium
to install across a network.
To use the CD version of the program, the computer you
are installing to needs to have a CD-ROM drive. See
system requirements When first activated the program
looks for the CD to unlock the full version of the program.
This is true of the free updates we offer on our site
as well. Networking or linking computers will not work
for this purpose, but a portable CD-ROM drive will suffice.

How do I test the Marine Aquarium
on my computer?
There is no separate "demo version" of Marine
Aquarium. We built the Marine Aquarium to act as a demo
until you enter a valid keycode. To properly install
SereneScreen Marine Aquarium, and activate the demo
mode, follow the instructions below:
1. IMPORTANT: Before installing, be sure your anti-virus
software is deactivated for the duration of the installation.

activate and unpack the needed Aquarium files. An application
will be created named "Marine Aquarium". The
operating system may take several seconds to update
the desktop with the file. If you do not have your system
configured to automatically expand downloaded files,
double click on the downloaded file, and use StuffIt
Expander to uncompress it.
If you do not have Stuffit you can download it.

document in your Startup Items folder. This document
will allow you to continue using Marine Aquarium as
a screen saver whenever your computer starts up without
having to remember to launch the application each time.
Select the "Create" button to create this
document.
7. At this point you can try to switch your color resolution
to millions if that is what you are used to. If there
is no difference in the Marine Aquarium's performance
than you can leave the resolution as it is.
8. Don't forget to reactivate your anti-virus software
when you are finished.

Marine Aquarium Settings.
Performance
Frames Per Second
Limit Frame Rate (FPS) - Forces the frame rate (animation
speed) of the Marine Aquarium to the frequency you select.
If your the Marine Aquarium is jerking, or running slowly,
you may need to reduce the frame rate below the default
62 by using the slider bar.
Show FPS - Displays Frames Per Second (animation speed)
in the Marine Aquarium tank.
Shimmer - Controls some of the animation procedure
regarding light. Should be reduced or turned off if
the animation is slow or jerky. The highest setting
causes the reflections off the Fish's bodies to be calculated
every frame, the middle setting causes them to be split
across frames, and the lowest value causes them to be
calculated only once.
Economize Video Memory - Controls some video memory
requirements. It should be used when frame rates are
well below 30 fps. Reduces hardware support for depth
sorting (distance from the screen) and thereby reduces
the amount of video memory required.
Full Screen Resolution - Controls the Desktop resolution
and Color depth settings that Marine Aquarium uses when
it runs full screen.
Resolution Dropdown menu - "Desktop Resolution"
will match the Marine Aquarium display to your current
desktop settings. 800x600 and 1024x768 will display
Marine Aquarium at these resolutions regardless of your
desktop settings.
Exit Full Screen on Mouse Move - If this is checked;
you can exit Marine Aquarium's full screen mode by moving
your mouse or pressing a non-hotkey (see above) on your
keyboard. If this option is not checked, you can only
exit full screen mode by pressing the ESC key.
Starfish Allowed on Glass - If this box is checked
and the automatic lighting is on (see below) the starfish
will climb onto the "glass" of your monitor
and show off its belly.
Lights
Automatic Lights - To prevent your monitor from burning
in, the Marine Aquarium will cycle the lighting from
light to dark across the tank. Un-checking this box
will give you full control of the lighting using the
Lights Slider below.
Lights Sliders - Manual settings for the lighting, Foreground
and Background, when Automatic lighting is off.
Delay Slider - Determines the length, from light to
dark, of the lighting cycle when Automatic lighting
is on. Can be set from 3 minutes to 30 minutes.
Bubbles
Column - Activates/Deactivates bubble column. Bubble
sound will still be present and is controlled by the
sound settings below.
Volume Slider - Controls bubble volume.
Always On - Bubble sound will always be heard when
the Aquarium is running.
When Active - Bubble sound will only be heard when
the Aquarium window is visible. Helpful when Goldfish
Aquarium is in Windowed mode (see "F" hotkey
above.)
Off - Turns off bubble sound entirely.
[Back to top]
Where are the other Fish
and how do I choose them?
The Marine Aquarium can display up to seven fish at
a time, from a library of colorful exotic breeds. To
access and use this library, please follow the instructions
below:
1. Press the space bar while the program is running.
This will bring up the Settings window where you will
find seven slots for fish, in the upper left-hand corner,
under the heading Livestock.
2. To access the library, click on the small black
triangle to the right of each slot and scroll up and
down through the menu. Here there are over twenty Fish
to choose from. Select a Fish by clicking on the name
you would like.
3. Selecting will leave that slot blank and the Marine
Aquarium will have one less fish on the screen. Select
and the Marine Aquarium will pick a fish for you at
random, every time you open the program. Checking the
option "Don't Duplicate Random Choices" will
make sure that no random choices are the same.

Troubleshooting
The Marine Aquarium works
perfectly on my friend's computer, but not mine. Why?
We are sorry, but without knowing the exact specifications
of both computers, this is impossible to answer.
[Back to top]
The Marine Aquarium is slow
or freezes.
Slow or frozen graphics are most often caused by low
video resources. The best way to improve performance
is to complete ALL of the following steps:
1. First switch your color resolution from millions
to thousands of colors.
2. If your display colors are already set to thousands
of colors then check the "Economize video memory"
checkbox in the Marine Aquarium preferences. If you
are trying to drive multiple monitors from one video
card then both steps may be necessary.
3. Go to the Marine Aquarium Settings menu and reduce
the "Shimmer" setting.
4. Also, turn off the bubble column and reduce the
number of fish.
5. Lastly, set your Apple Extension settings back to
the OS9 defaults. Click on the Apple Menu, select "Control
Panels" then "Extension Manager". At
the top of the menu, choose "Mac OS 9.x All"
After finishing all of these steps, take each setting
back to default to see where the problem is solved.
Freezing problems have been known to occur on the iMac
DV. Our program does not cause this problem, it happens
to many 3D products. It appears to be a problem in the
Rage128VR chipset. Apple is researching the problem.
If none of the above fixes work for you, please Email
us and include the Frames Per Second that the Marine
Aquarium is running at (This can be found by pressing
the "S" key while the program is running.)
and an OS9 Apple System Report (ASP):
1. Open Apple System Profiler, select File/New Report.
2. Select the standard System Profile, and "Devices
and Volumes" and "Extensions".
3. Save the report to a file.
4. Compress it with stuffit or some other common compression
tool.
5. E-mail it to us with a description of your problem.

The Marine Aquarium does not
fill my whole monitor screen.
Pressing the "F" key will switch the Marine
Aquarium to full screen mode.
[Back to top]
How do I get Marine Aquarium
to display on multiple monitors?
Be sure that the "Use multiple monitors" checkbox
is checked in the Aquarium Preferences. Preferences
can be accessed by pressing the spacebar on your keyboard
while the Aquarium is running.
[Back to top]
The Marine Aquarium has lines
or artifacts when it runs.
White lines and "scuffs" are usually caused
by the renderer of OpenGL. The bug shows up on our products
because we allow people to select any resolution. Other
products (like games) have it too, but it is less noticeable
because they tend to take control of the screen. Changing
resolutions by resizing the aquarium window will fix
the problem almost every time. To do so drag the lower
right corner of the window to a different place.
[Back to top]
I cannot access the eighth
Fish.
There are always eight Fish slots in the Fish settings
screen, however the eighth Fish only appears in widescreen
mode (click HERE for more information on Marine Aqurium's
widescreen mode). The note at the bottom is simply an
explanation. Count the slots to be sure that you have
eight. Also, to be doubly sure you can set all but the
last slot to the same Fish then watch the Aquarium for
the lone eighth Fish.
[Back to top]
I have a very large screen.
The Marine Aquarium looks pixilated at higher resolutions.
A single image at the higher resolutions would be about
7 megs (for example 1920bits x 1200 bits x3). Our whole
program, with fish and code and art is about 3 megs.
About 95% of our current users do not have such an amazing
display. So sadly, as of yet, we're sorry to say that
the product will begin to show its resolution on such
high-end equipment.

Can I make my own Fish for the
Marine Aquarium?
Currently we do not permit people to create or add custom
fish for Marine Aquarium. The reasons is multifold,
but the most important one is that while we trust an
artisan would be motivated, and even capable of creating
a truly wonderful masterpiece, there are others that
might not, and a version were to get out that was less
than the highest quality, it might reflect poorly on
us.
