I asked for an older version via email and got this as a response:

Uhm... I've been an AC3D user since I think 2. something I have used AC3D since the AC3D home page was yellow and green on a black page with screen shots. I used AC3D well before SDOE made it popular. I have pointed anyone who asked what 3D program I used to AC3D, even when it CTD' quicker than I could save.

I didn't raise hell when AC3D told everyone that bought before Inivis "took over" were no longer getting free upgrades for the life of the product and to buy an upgrade, which at the time my understanding was the upgrade price was until 7.0 came out. That appears to have changed. I am not the original poster, but I am also not quite happy with the current situation.

I do understand in the past Andy was hesitant to put older copies of AC3D out due to piracy, but not emailing or linking an older copy to long long long time supporter of AC3D isn't quite the happiness I would expect or actually have grown accustomed to from AC3D.

So hopefully you can understand why some of us are slightly cranky.
