¶ Testing
This release introduced a couple of new features / additions, which need to be well tested to ensure it works with the rest of the application.
- Please test the -uninstall option on a VM (In worst case you might lose data!)
- Change settings, go wild on it.
- Login & Logout
- Test playing through UGXL and so on.
¶ Known issues
Download Manager is buggy, report all issues
Updater of rev 21 / 20 is broken (7z extration failed. Alexander Diller is investigating it)
Be carefull, the updater is broken (you'll see) but just hit the button and it should work.
You then will get a 7z extraction error
close the application and locate the installation root of UGXL.
Remove all files and go to %TEMP%\UGX Launcher or (C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp\UGX Launcher)
and extract the full.r22.7z by yourself into the install dir
Now start UGX Launcher.exe =)
¶ Whats next?
Focus is now on RC2 and UGX Play + add more maps.
In this process, the UGX Installer needs to be finalized.
Also MapPacker and MapValidator need to be completed!
I'll work on the web push as well, so Andy King or Luke Houben can help to implement / fix / improve web projects.
