Version 2.28c

Post by Techfixer »

Hi. I noticed that version 2.28c is available in Matrix's website (it shows as 2.28V for some reason). Why the Steam version was not updated ( I don't see a new build)?

Yes, you are right. How strange.

A friend of mine tried to install it, and his version says 2.28b. Probably another mishap with naming.

Did he try to install the Steam or the Matrix version?

Matrix.

My guess is what happened is that some Matrix employee had a bit of a fast day of typing. He hit V instead of B, which are right next to each other, and C instead of B which is just next to V.

But 2.28b is the current official Matrix version. I am not sure what the current Steam version is.

Steam's latest build is 3928834 from 2019. So, since there is an update (even if the version number might appear as "2.28b") there should be a new 2022 build. Not sure what's going on. Anyway, thanks for the update.

Also based on http://ftp.us.matrixgames.com/pub/AdvancedTacticsGold/ 2.28b and 2.28c are different files, so there is definitely an update available. It doesn't look as a typo to me ( I agree with you on the 2.28V part).
