Eek.

Sounds like maybe the script may have not put the right items in the  
right places- although I saw your script and it looked good to me.  
Just in case can you double check your pathnames? Even if it doesn't  
load, the plugin should at least be listed in the manager, unless  
it's physically not there.

I wonder if the bundle isn't more geared toward 8.5 than we're lead  
to believe.

Have you asked Feeling about it? They support their products -even  
the free ones- pretty well from my experience at least.
