(Solved) VB 4.2.2?

Post by loukingjr »

Just saw on the home page VB 4.2.2 is supposed to be released. Tried downloading the OSX version but it never starts. Was it pulled?

I believe there is a special 4.2.3 for OSX as there was with 4.2.1.

Based on what...? (At this point, no special 4.2.3 is planned.)

v4.2.1 was an interrim bugfix version, I would assume those fixes are now incorporated in v4.2.2 hence no more need for a Mac special.

marked this as solved because it seems there was just an issue with the links earlier.
