Beta Test of the 32- & 64-Bit versions

DIVE Version 3 here

DIVE Version 3 Beta Test (from 08/2015 until 03/2016)

For Windows 7 and higher we have here
versions for 32-Bit operating systems (D3xx_32.exe), and, as well:
versions for 64-Bit operating systems (D3xx_64.exe)
for free and for free testing:
we would enjoy bug- and test-reports!
The versions D301_xx are Complete-Versions
for 32 Bit (xx = 32) or 64 Bit (xx = 64)
i.e.: "distributables" with all required DLLs for the graphics
you will find them in the table below in the line 1 & 2
the Ascii/TXT files are the N₂ and Helium compartment matrixes
you will find them in the table below in line 3 & 4
just for playing around a little bit with DIVE Version 3, there is in line 5:
a compartment matrix build according to Fibonacci's rule
another one according to J S Haldane

and in line 7 there is the favicon.ico, the icon for the ALEPH

CAVEAT! NOTA BENE etc.
update from: 03 / 2016

these beta-test versions are german versions,
i.e.: generally the old english documentation holds (DOS 6.2, XP, etc.)
for the new features you could check the new german documentation for Version 3
and here the RELEASE TRAIN as DRAFT!
this should be no problem: the mnemonics, say "D" for DIVE, "m" for MIX, "a" for ascent are english anyway.
the graphics are put to the smallest common denominator:
VGA, 640 X 480, 16 COLOR
following is a list of the new features with a short description:
A short list with the new features in DIVE V 3.00 (and from DIVE V 2.97 on)
command "TA":
temperature adaption: reduced skin temperature implies reduced perfusion,
und thus increases the half-times in certain compartments
command "W":
increased workload, and, hence increased O₂ consumption increases the perfusion,
and thus increases the inert-gas absorption and reduces half-times in certain compartments
command "LAT":
latency during a change in gas-mix due to finite perfusion/ventilation ratio in the lung,
so it takes time in the body until the new mix comes into play
command "PDCS":
the probability of decompression sickness is assessed with 5 (five, sic!) published algorithms
command "O2":
adaption of the usual O₂ halftime from 90 min to the new NOAA Standard with 120 min
as well there are a couple of nice easter eggs (undocumented features) in the german beta's:
one of them is a complete, numerical solution for the deco stop times with two inertgases
the density changes for fresh- or seawater
and the density shift with water temperature!
Hints:
if you get this or a similar error message::
" ...libifcoremd.dll is missing ..."
download and un-pack our zip-archive with DLLs from the DIVE 3.0 Beta Test-Site here;
and, for e.g., with Windows 7 store it under:
C:\Windows\System32\
the DLL Zip Archive: 32 Bit Version
the MD5SUM = 98b415577766991dfea19e43074f4517
the DLL Zip Archive: 64 Bit Version
the MD5SUM = b0d9a83852a715c4e6da4439ff1a8e16
these archives are collections of various DLLs, which came with our new Intel® Fortran Compiler 16.0
resp. our new: Intel® Visual Fortran Composer XE 2016 SP1 - Windows* OS
both DLL archives include:
libifcoremd.dll
libifportmd.dll
libmmd.dll
DLLs:
if you want to know, which DLLs are used by the various DIVE versions:
go to Microsoft SYSINTERNALS page
and download the tool: Listdlls
save it, open it in a "cmd"-Box, for e.g. with: Listdlls > DLL.TXT
(DIVE must be up & running prior to that)
key in, for eg.: DLL.TXT, then the NOTEPAD opens with this particular text file,
then you could search: cntrl f, DIVE
or key in:
Listdlls | more
Dependency Walker Tool
another possibility is this free of charge 3rd party tool:
Dependencywalker Tool
MD5 Tools:
german tool: checksum-verifier for MD5 and SHA-1, 32- and 64-Bit versions
hashtab for MD5, SHA1, SHA2, RipeMD, HAVAL and Whirlpool.
