Hardware requirements
Our first lab had 26 PCs with 486/66 processors and 16 MB RAM and worked fine with z-Tree.
Now we have 866Mz Pentiums with 128MB RAM and 20GB Harddisk.
OS requirements
z-Tree works fine with Windows NT (3.51 or 4.0), Windows 2000 or Windows XP, TCP/IP- Network.
The program does not work properly with Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows ME:
Z-Leaf freezes frequently after a certain time. It is possible to test
treatments with Windows 95/98. However, it is not recommend to run sessions
using Windows 95/98.
Versions of z-Tree
Newer versions of z-Tree can always open treatments programmed with earlier versions of z-Tree.
The reverse is not always true. If there are important changes,
treatments that are saved in a new z-Tree version can’t be
opened with an older version anymore.
I try to avoid semantic changes between versions. However, it might unintentionally happen.
Please check old treatments when you
run them with the new version.
WINE
It seems that a new version of z-Tree will partially work with some versions of wine.
Oliver Kirchkamp has tried it out and written a detailed
report on it.
Please tell me if you try things out.
Vitual-PC on Macintosh
z-Tree seems to work in this environment.
