I just installed the Seed Tray Utility. I chose to "RUN" the .NET application. It took a l-o-n-g time and I was kinda worried that I shouldn't have done it. I didn't have to reboot or anything. When I double clicked on the Virtual Seed Tray icon, it loaded right up. The only thing is that I am a visual person, so I recognize the plants by sight rather than so much by name. So that's kinda new for me. Plus, if I ever have any seeds that are crossbred and show both parents, I ditch them. And then save the actual seed. So that doesn't effect me at all. THIS IS A GREAT HELP FOR THE GAME!!! I tend to be a pack rat and want to save all the seeds.....especially if they are "pretty"!!! And now I can. THANKS BORG!!! I LOVE YA!!!

It is already available for you to download HERE
Now you won't have to ditch them. You will just love the "remove lineage" button which converts the pictures of both parents into a picture of what the plant will grow up to become!I love you too , and you are most welcome

thanx borg!your the best!

There is another thing that the VST can be used for, and that is tracking which species you have discovered. To do that, all you need to do is make sure that you make seeds from every new species you discover and store one of each in the VST. Then it's fairly simple to scroll through and see which ones you have and which ones you're missing.

I hope to use it to keep track of breeding info. I was tiring of writing/typing breeding information and I believe the VST will work for me as long as I use seeds that show the parents and keep my seed trays organized. Needless to say, I was very excited with finding this thread a few days ago.

I tried to download .NET Framework from the link in the guides but all I get is a IE error page. I'll try another time.

Can't wait for the mac version . . .

Margi, that link works for me, but if you're having difficulty, go to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads and the .NET Framework download is in the middle of the list of most popular downloads.

I tried it again and got the same IE error page. When reading the program description it says to delete previous programs. Is Microsoft Visual J# .NET Redistributable Package 1.1 the older version of the program?

Before I delete this I'll wait for an expert opinion.
