gaab Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Operating system: Win10 Simulator: P3DV4.5 HF2 Screenshot: Central V 4.1.1 Issue: Global is saying that I have version 1.1.5 installed and wants to update it to 1.1.62 BUT Chaseplane says I am at 1.1.65 (it always auto-updates at startup... ) Gérard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell Williamson Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Hi! This is normal and you should refer to the version number in ChasePlane. The reason this occurs is that Orbx Central downloads a version of ChasePlane (in this instance 1.1.62) and then ChasePlane manages its own updates from there.

gaab Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 Ok - so could CP and CENTRAL simply use the same logic ? Updating a common version.txt should not be that difficult ! Gérard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Hello Gérard, perhaps it would be simpler to just leave the version number off the Orbx Central page, so that it reads Chaseplane is installed, then this minute attention to detail would be unnecessary. For me, Orbx Central reports the version that it installed and this does differ from the later version the Chaseplane has updated itself to. However, there is no notification in Orbx Central that an update is required, as of course, one is not required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My remark was more targetted to CP team : but of course I have setup Central to ignore CP updates. It's just surprise me that CP don't follow at least the very simple CENTRAL version management in C:\Program Files\Parallel 42\ChasePlane\version_p42-chaseplane.txt Regards, Gérard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The version in our system will almost always be older than the latest. You can test this yourself by editing that txt file, then restart Central. It will then try and downgrade ChasePlane to an older version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
