We've released a fix for Windower 4. If you use the Windower 4 Beta, just re-run the launcher and it will automatically update. If you haven't moved to v4 yet, we encourage you to do so here. We are working on backporting the fix to 3.4, and will be posting an update when a fix is available.

It's a hook update, so make sure you close the game before updating :).

They bust their *** to get things working asap and they still get ***about it. I'm ashamed to be on your server :(

Thanks again for all the hard work Ihm.

not that dude, just that fixing 4.0 before 3.4 seems kinda odd to me, considering 4.0 is based on a 3.4 project, that is all, i do appreciate the team's work and stuff, just asking if they got any info on 3,4

fixing 4.0 before 3.4

4.0 is (likely) cleaner code, and easier to fix, which means it'll be done faster, and provides an incentive for people to upgrade who haven't already (which means it's less likely they'll need to backport 3.x in the future).

4.0 is quite substantially re-written, and truth be told, we have the 4.0 code readily available, 3.4 is quite broken and bitty, we re-wrote a lot of plugins and stuff for 4.0.

I will throw this out though. The only reason we're fixing 3.4 is because 4.0 is still beta. When 4.0 is final, then 3.4 is dead.

Just a quick question, I just updated to 4.0 and it looks like all my macros/scrpits are gone, do I just have to rewrite them? :o

Also, thank you for being so fast, making the game actually playable so quickly.

XML and Macro work fine, nothing has changed, just need to make sure to copy them over. v4's installer doesn't (And won't) copy your old stuff over. I'm sure its easier for you to do it manually than for us to make an automated system xD.

Hey guys, I was just going through a similar problem with my scripts. I just upgraded my 3.4 windower > 4, and when I transferred my scripts over to the new folder in v4, it wouldn't execute in game >.>... I went ahead and restarted my windower app and it began installing updates to a few plugins, I think Auto Exec was one of them. Anyways I've had serious connection issues w/ windower and PoL today as many have experienced. I would try to restart windower in hopes for an update or be patient as bugs get fixed.

Plugins can also be dropped from our 3.4 to 4.0 folder as well?

Echoing the comments of others...you guys rock! Thanks for your work. SE should be thanking you too...if not for your program I would not be playing this game anymore lol.
