Upgrading Development & Build Unity Version to 2018.2.21f1

Post by Interkarma »

I'm bumping version of Unity used for development and builds from 2018.2.11f1 to 2018.2.21f1. No code changes are required as it's just a minor update version. The main reason behind this is the recent security flaw in Windows Unity editor. I want to make sure our devs running Windows can be properly patched.

I have tested several mods with a build created under this version and have experienced no issues so far (e.g. pink textures, mod not loading). I haven't tested all mods, but so far this appears to be a safe update to make (famous last words, I know). :)

Below are test builds of Daggerfall Unity 0.7.65 created under Unity 2018.2.21f1 if you'd like to test with your mod loadout. Note: Builds may include other changes/fixes since last release, but are mainly here just to test mod compatibility.

0.7.65 - Windows 64-bit

0.7.65 - Windows 32-bit

0.7.65 - Linux Universal

0.7.65 - Mac Universal

FYI There's no later version available for Linux, so those editors will have to stay on 2018.2.7f1.

Thanks for letting me know. That should be OK, I don't think there are any substantial code changes required on our end in DFU specifically. Change is mainly so that Windows users can install security fix.

For Linux I used the unpublished downloader URL https://download.unity3d.com/download_u ... 018.2.21f1
Looking good so far...

How did you find that? I thought all the Linux Editor builds were on the forum thread...

By the way, from what I can tell it fixed the input bug under Linux; I no longer get spurious characters in the console if I try to go uppercase, and can even revert f065d70 without noticeable drawbacks...
