Construct 3 Desktop - Launcher (Release & Version Management) [Deprecated]

Yeah there's something weird going on with recent releases, in both NWJS and C3. If I use the newer C3 releases it just closes after it opens up.

If I go back to NWJS 56.1 and C3 r264, without updating either, it works fine.

Strangely, I think sometimes the newer C3 releases work but not every day, so I have to manually edit my .c3p to pretend it was saved in an earlier version.

oh you'll have to teach me how to do that !

there's a button that takes you to settings, you can then change which version you want to use!

No, I mean to edit the .c3p in order to try to change the save version.

Rename project.c3p to project.zip. Unpack the file. Edit project.c3proj with a text editor, and look for the line "version": "rxxx". Change to desired version, save. Repack as zip, rename to .c3p.

Yep, sometimes unzipping then zipping it again doesn't work for me, so I just directly open the .c3p file with 7zip without unpacking it.

ye theres something weird goin on, it works then it doenst then it does, its driving me a bit crazy ?

I tried to launch debug mode but it just crushed the whole thing, anyone else stumbled upon same problem? I tried different settings (Preview method: popup/dialogue) but there doesn't seem to be any changes. How do I fix it?

yeah I had to switch to just using the browser, it feels worse and is not as well featured as this desktop version, but it works!

Hi guys. Any idea why everytime I run the desktop build and close it, I can't run it again before deleting the construct 3 appdata?

It either hangs with nothing ever happening OR tells me I need to give it admin rights (despite having those) and spewing somekind of access error in the dump as far as I can read?

I really really don't like the browser version. Any clues?

Thanks

ye thats an ongoing issue, but it only happens if you use beta version, i switched to only stable for now to avoid it.
