If you check that and take updates you can download beta updates for developers and translators. There are bugs and stuff. Final Release always will be better for the last user.

The Papaw Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 (edited) Not 100% sure this is beta update related, but after I updated to beta 5 I noticed some missing artwork (not using default locations for my media), when I looked into it, the following folders had been reset back to default locations for every platform (40+). I found it strange that it was identical to every platform? Luckily I had a recent back to go back too.

goin3d Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 (edited) With the latest beta I am unable to access the Tools>options menu. When I attempt to there is a box popping up behind the Launchbox app for EA Play login, but that box cannot be focused, nor can the main LaunchBox window. The only way to access Launchbox again is to force close it. I've attached a screen shot of what the mouseover of the LaunchBox app icon looks like in the windows task bar when this happens.

Same here. Hopefully admins will fix this asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faeran Posted October 2, 2023 Author Share Posted October 2, 2023 Thanks everyone. We have one of our builds where we can reproduce the issue with the options page, so it should be fixed for next beta. 11 hours ago, Beforedeth said: If I get big box will it show RA achievements now or is that still down… It's still down on their end. We do continue to try and resolve it in any way we can, but our hands are tied to their infrastructure and their timetable on when a fix will become available from their API.

At the moment you have to download them by hand or with a third Party tool (Stellar). At the moment we don't have plans for this, but you never know what the future may hold.

Nah, used some of my backups. TY Sir. Just a thought, might be wise to not drop beta's just before the weekend when much of the development team is gone for a couple days?

faeran Posted October 3, 2023 Author Share Posted October 3, 2023 Beta 6 is out to help fix the issues some users were having with their Options menu. Fixed: Options menu refusing to open for some users due to a conflicting process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Papaw Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 I am curious why "THE FIX" in the last beta fixed some and didn't fix others? Do myself and @shadoweez have something in common that the others didn't have? specs: Win10 Nvidea 1080ti Dual 4k monitors non-standard media locations gotta be something I would think???? Anyone have any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
