    OpenRails not updating.

    G'day all, I have always updated weekly and am on version X4074 I have tried to up date to X4079 and although it downloaded it did not apply. This has never happened to me before and was wondering if it has occurred to others.
    Regards

      Thank you, there must be a fault with the auto download install.

        Hi Folks,

        Yeah - ditto - I did the manual download as well and it still said it needed an update 4079...

        Regards,
        Scott

          4074 had a problem with updates, which has been solved in later version. It's better to manually download the latest experimental version from here https://james-ross.co.uk/projects/or/builds .

            My problem is that's exactly what I did, and OR still thinks I'm running 4074.

              Ummm ... right ... happening here too ... so I pulled 4080 from Jim's site and manually applied it. The menu now says that it's on 4080 but it still wants me to update to 4079. Is some registry entry or other resource perhaps dangling?

                I had re download and install ORTS V1.2 then apply the 4079 update to fix the problem.

                  Was hoping not to have to do that ... it's sort of like having to reinstall windows because the calendar doesn't update correctly ...

                    Mike, It appears to have worked for 24 hours as the update to 4079 thing shows up again in the top corner. I try to apply the update but it keeps telling me that 4079 is available to download.

                    The issue appears to be with ORTS and the recent updates. It's time for a code error check on their end.

                      I wonder why we don't all have that problem . I run a Win 7 and a Win 10 machine and I have been updating all along with no problems .
                      Could it be an Anti-Virus program that is checking as you download and also when it tries to install the upgrade ?
                      I use Avast and it wil check the file and halt the install until it clears the file as a secure item .
                      Just a Thought !

                        G'day all, I patched 4074 manually with 4079 and all is now going fine. Thanks for the assistance.

                          4081 solves the issue.
