Updates of files

Hello,
As far as I understand it, when I look at the list of updates if there is a red exclamation mark next to it it means that there is a newer version of the data files ready to be downloaded. However no matter how many times I download the Hordes file and the Warhammer Ancient Battle file, the exclamation mark remains.

Could anyone advise please?
Thanks
 
That problem would be due to the data file authors entering incorrect information when they post updates about their data files. Authors handle their own release of new updates without our involvement. If the author doesn't do things correctly, then you'll get the behavior you describe below.

This is something that should be reported to the data file author as a bug. The author should be able to fix the problem quite easily.

Uh oh, what did I do?
I do the Hordes file and the Warmachine file. The Hordes file used the Warmachine .def file so, I'm guessing the Warmachine file is doing the same thing?
The uploading is pretty simple, is it something in the .def file that's doing it?

Thanks for the help,

The data files stipulated in the definition file that they are V1.0. However, the Updates entry shows them as V1.1. Consequently, the V1.1 Updates entry will always be flagged as newer than the loaded V1.0 files when AB checks the versions. You simply need to enter the proper version number into the definition file and everything should work fine.

Hope this helps,
Rob

Hello,
Well I don't know about the tech side but if it helps the version of the update that I'm seeing is:Hordes V1.1 July 2006. In the description it says Hordes 1.1.1. It still has the red exclamation mark.

The warmachine seems to have updated and is current. It is Warmachine (V1.5) 24 Sept 2006 and in the description reads "Superiority - Contracts added".

Cheers
 
Ah, yes. I sometimes forget to change the .def file's version but change it on the sign in form on the website.
Another one of those doh! moments.

Thanks!
