The Mechanical Clock animated screensaver and live wallpaper is not an attempt to stop the time but an opportunity to think what we are working for and what we want to achieve in reality. And one day we may realize that have wasted the most valuable things in our life and stayed with nothing. In this rush, we often fault spending enough time with our children, parents, and friends. We are constantly looking for something, doing some deeds, selling and buying in order to provide our families with more and more necessary and unnecessary material goods. The spare time tends to be always in deficit despite the great variety of new devices supposed to make our life simpler. In the era of high speeds, the time becomes the most valuable and expensive resource. The measured ticking of the clock mechanism matches with the beautiful graphic perfectly to reproduce the smallest details of the clock with amazing accuracy. And the risks they have taken are now paying off. It looks like the designers of this wonderful free Windows screensaver have relied just on our feeling of curiosity. However, the diversity of complicated mechanical details joined with one another in some tricky way might be interesting to every inquisitive person. You can also set the password for the "screensaver mode".The Mechanical Clock 3D screensaver will be a great joy for all supporters of the mechanical world theory. Moreover - if you click on "Hide Wallpaper", you won't even notice them and the app will work in the "screensaver mode" only and run automatically after the settled period of time. There is just a little difference that separates our wallpapers from the system screensavers - our wallpapers have a "screensaver mode". Please try to update the app.Īs for the integration with the system preferences - yes, our wallpapers are not actual screensavers, but it is all because of the store policy. Plus we have added the "hotkey" to run the screensaver mode. from 2017, we made a lot of changes and all the issues are fixed in the latest version. I’d purchase again despite limitations, alhtough I’d give it 5 stars if they integrated the app into the OS. Besides this limitation, it is an absolutely beautiful desktop AND screensaver. It cannot be used as a default desktop (it over rides the systems desktop. It can only be turned on by opening the app. Also, the desktop component also does not integrate with System Preferences. I’ve recently asked the app company to consider integrating a keyboard shortcut into the program. Within the OS, scsreen savers can be turned on by keyboard shortcuts and ‘hot corners’, which make it a breeze to use whenever one chooses. Mechanical Clock 3D Screensaver Allows you to use your music in multiple formats Comes with sounds Adjustable volume Enables you to tweak the resolution and. It is a stand alone product and the only way you can get the sceen saver aspect of it to ‘come on’ is to click on the icon, and then click on the ‘turn on screen saver’ option OR wait until the preset time of idelness to have it start. Unfortunately, this program does not integrate into the System Prefences portion of the OS with the screen saver options. While this app afforded me the opportunity to clear a desk clock from my workspace, part of the reason I purchased the full version was to get a fully functional (per Mac OS standards) screensaver. Thank you for your feedback, 5 stars review and reaching out our Support Team! We are happy to help anytime!īeautiful Desktop/Screensaver but limited in functionality 3Planesoft support just responded to let me know that my Mechanical Clock 3D chime patterns are actually working as designed (a pattern I have never heard before) and have little to do with Big Ben. Because the chimes sound just like the Big Ben bells, I expected the Big Ben patterns of bell strikes like most grandfather clocks also have. Oh, I see a pattern here but not a Big Ben pattern.Īs a simple workaround I set the “No sound” option in this app and then installed Clock Chimes app (no graphics just Westminister chimes/bongs) to run in the background - they sync beautifully together but I much prefer the Big Ben chimes/bongs sounds in this app. At 6 PM I get two quarter chimes and six bongs, 6:15 PM silence, 6:30 PM no chimes - one bong, 6:45 PM silence, 7 PM two quarter chimes - seven bongs, 7:15 PM silence, 7:30 PM one bong, 7:45 PM silence, 8 PM two quarter chimes - eight bongs. 1.3.1 (3) SIX stars and a heart IF only the chimes and bongs worked properly. !!!WOW!!! I would gladly hack this review software just to give this clock ver. Marvelous graphics and superb animated mechanical detail but.
