Anyone remembers Light Alloy? went Freeware recently

[TOM_SK]

Seems that the good, old ''Light Alloy'' is now free. It has the same interface but a lot of settings.
The home page (http://www.light-alloy.ru/) is still in Russian but some info in English and direct download links I found here (http://codecpack.co/download/Light_Alloy.html)

They have updated their forum, added language choice dropdown, and quick register, so if any english-speaking user have questions, he can easily register on LA's forum and ask questions.

They seem to have serious problems on their side -> links to forum or changelog fail miserably for me :(

yeah, they're moving to new hosting service, so these problems could appear occasionally. But currently their forum works fine.
