Not recognising previous install?

Open placeboyue opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

i pointed this to my flashpoint infinity 10 install, thinking it would somehow pick up on it and update.. but from the looks of it, it's gonna do a fresh install on that folder... i'm not convinced it's not gonna break everything. Maybe it's not an issue but there's no clear instructions on which folder to point it to, or if it's intended or not to update versions from.. certain version onwards.. or whatever

I noticed this issue too.

I downloaded Flashpoint Ultimate 12, and now it wants to "start all over" if I use the updater to keep my folder up-to-date. The main selling point of the recent versions of Infinity and Ultimate is that they can be incrementally updated, without having to download entirely new versions from scratch.

It feels like this project is abandoned.

Same with Flashpoint 11.0 Ultimate. It wants to load version 13 as a new install.

I previously updated several (Ultimate) versions with the 0.5 updater without issues.

When opening the 0.5 updater it shows Initialization error: Index metadata cannot be parsed! Please check your configuration file or contact a server administrator. and logs: [CRITICAL] Could not parse index metadata. Aborted..

But I guess that just means the "index_endpoint": "https://unstable.life/fp-index/" (in the config.json) is no longer online.
