SDK says it's up to date, but it never updated since around March 2014?

Troubleshooting SDK

Hi, this winter, I installed the SDK and it updated a couple of times, if I remember right the last version I saw was 3.0.9 but I may be wrong (by the way, how the H*** can we get the running SDK version? It’s not written in the ABOUT window, it’s just written 3.x or 3.0 regardless of the actual minor revision) but anyway, the problem is that I do not have the latest fixes for known bugs that date back many months ago, so i’m sure there have been new updates, but I’m not getting them, the SDK always says it’s up to date. Here are a couple screenshots. Can somebody guide me on how to obtain the latest automated updates like it used to work before? (I remember seeing a notification at the bottom that was asking to restart the SDK to apply the updates, now I don’t see that anymore.)

Here is one fix that I know is not in my SDK yet, altough it dates back to April 6th: Fixed issue in MotionPath where having a path with only 2 waypoints w… · jMonkeyEngine/jmonkeyengine@dbae186 · GitHub

Thank you for your support on this matter.

You have nightly enabled, you’ll have to delete the updates or simply the complete settings folder to reset back to stable. Nightly doesn’t get updates anymore as master is not compatible to the current SDK release.

You can see the version by looking at any of the installed SDK plugins in the “installed plugins” window btw.

I understand. I have uninstalled nightly, downloaded a fresh copy of stable and installed it. It then immediately updated to 3.0.10 and now everything seems up to date, but my project has SO MANY lighting problems! O.O at least it runs, it’s just shader-wise I think… wow that’s… nearly all black! I mean… all lights do not seem like they emit anything anymore :frowning:

I’ll have to debug this I guess :stuck_out_tongue:

Thx, +1’ed.

Found it. LightScattering was causing the issue. Thx, case closed :smiley:
