Hi,

why there is no information about this new version in "News and information" forum?

And BTW it should be numbered 1.5.3 because the Beta version is 1.5.2.57. Why is it going retrograde?

This version is numbered 1.5.2.58 and it is not Beta but retail one.

It is very confusing.

Petar,

 

> why there is no information about this new version in "News and information" forum?

 

because on the launch day of the Trail there was a lot to do, and this had to wait. Its there now.

 

> And BTW it should be numbered 1.5.3 because the Beta version is 1.5.2.57. Why is it going retrograde? This version is numbered 1.5.2.58 and it is not Beta but retail one. It is very confusing.

 

It's not that confusing. The previous release was 1.5.1.43. All the customer betas after that were called 1.5.2.xx (46, 47, 48, 49 - 57). These customer beta builds were all leading up to a release build of an official 1.5.2.xx. Next we will do a customer beta of 1.5.3.xx (but only if we need to update 1.5 again before 1.6.0 is ready to go to customer beta).

My guess is that the section doesn't list every single update because then it would get tiring to see excessive new versions with bug corrections but not actually new major features. I guarantee once 1.6 is released, that will be in the News and Information section, because there were already sneak peeks of it, and will be introducing more major updates. I would assume the multiple decimals in each version is a way to identify where each version stands in testing.

 

Edited: Patrick beat me to the punch.

What I meant was this:

After betas with 4 numbers, follows retail with 3 numbers (1.5.2.nn -> 1.5.3 without the 4th number). After that betas continues with 1.5.3.1 and so on.

No it shouldn't I understand what you meant. The next beta will be 1.5.3.nn then 1.5.3.nn+1, then 1.5.3.nn+2 before the next retail 1.5.3.nn+3 meaning we are beta testing 1.5.3.xx while 1.5.2 is the release version. End of
