Post by: deoxy99 on March 23, 2010, 08:03:12 AM: But those pictures of those systems squashes the menu, and the tutorial doesn't explain everything.

Post by: Bla on March 23, 2010, 10:06:27 AM: The tutorial explains a lot to new persons who don't know how to use the program and use it for the first time. :)

Post by: Dan Dixon on March 23, 2010, 06:58:47 PM: I released Beta 5a today.

It has some minor tweaks to the tutorial and most importantly it fixes a problem with a new batch of beta codes that I sent out to the teachers from the WSTA Conference (the science teacher conference).

Please let me know if you have any problems updating.

Thanks!

Post by: Dan Dixon on April 01, 2010, 01:18:23 PM: What version are you running?

You can click on "Settings" and the version number will be at the bottom of the page.

You can also click on "More..." to get to the old menu and click on "Check for Updates"
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: Chaotic Cow on April 01, 2010, 06:18:47 PM: 1.0.604.0
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: deoxy99 on April 01, 2010, 06:21:34 PM: Oooh, that's not version 2, so it can't update to the beta 5a.

Ummm... No one has version 2. It's not out yet. One month.
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: deoxy99 on April 01, 2010, 07:17:31 PM: Yes, you have it right now, it's called Version 2 Beta 5a.
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: deoxy99 on April 01, 2010, 07:29:15 PM: It shouldn't be 1.0.604.0, but 2.0.###.5a
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: Chaotic Cow on April 01, 2010, 09:58:14 PM: You mean..my version broke? D:

When I open it..at the top it says Universe Sandbox - Beta 5
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: Dan Dixon on April 01, 2010, 11:42:39 PM: Version 2 Beta 5a is the same as 1.0.604.0

You've got the latest version.
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: Chaotic Cow on April 02, 2010, 11:05:44 AM: So...what is different in 5a ?
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: Dan Dixon on April 02, 2010, 11:52:29 AM: 5a fixed a licence code problem and there was a slight change to the tutorial verses to beta 5.

And deoxy99, you were very right to be confused as we're using two different numbering systems.
Title: Re: Beta 5 is released
Post by: deoxy99 on April 02, 2010, 02:20:25 PM: Well, I thought it was supposed to be 2.05a or something like that. Now I know.
