FSDT Live Update version ahead of offline installer
« on: March 22, 2023, 05:35:28 pm »
Just did an update from 2.4.0 to 2.4.1 with offline installer that I downloaded this morning,USA time.
Looking at the Liveupdate app afterwards. however it says the latest version is 2.4.2.
Not sure what to make of that.

If you read the 2.4.2 changelog, it only added some extra operators and, as explained in the Sticky thread about the Offline installer:

Quote
This Offline installer will only update the complete GSX code. It doesn't contain updates to object models or textures or new operators. Those are only available through the normal online Installer/Updater.

That's why there wasn't any need to update the Offline installer again, because updates to models/textures/operators are only available online with the Live Update.
