Steve's Demystifying Dramatica Made Simple FAQsQuestions About the Dramatica Software My friends tried Dramatica when it first came out. What has changed since then? Dramatica has undergone seven releases during the last seven years, so much has changed in the application. Overall, the program has become more reliable, easier to use, simplified the terminology, and has improved the quality of supporting materials. So the Dramatica of earlier days is not the same program as versions 3.0 and especially versions 4.0. (if you own an earlier version of Dramatica, the software can be updated for a nominal cost. Contact our sales department for more info). 1.0: June 1994. Initial Release. Mac only. 1.1: December 1994. Initial Release for Windows. Feature enhancements. Mac bug fixes. 1.5.1: May 1995.
