4.1.1 Suggestion...finally fix the Check for Update

It's been way to long for this feature to not work. My guess it's a server side issue. Wireshark shows packet being sent up during a Check for Update check from the Help menu. What's in those packets I'm not sure. They very well could contain no information about the current version and the server has no idea what to send back. Simplify3D may have implemented this feature a different way, but which ever way it was done, doesn't actually work.

Re: 4.1.1 Suggestion...finally fix the Check for Update

I've just tried the "Check for Update" in all versions from 3.1....ie 3.1, 3.1.1, 4.0.0, 4.0.1, and 4.1.....and I get a consistent "Simplify3D version 4.1.0 is now available...." message on all versions except 4.1, which I get the "Your software is up to date!" message.

I use Windows10. So if there's an issue, its not on Windows systems.

However, version 4.1.1 is now available and Simplify3D 4.1 on my Mac still claims that it is up to date.

Oh, look!
4.1.1ishere.JPG
4.1.0 on Windows claims an update is ready.

Sign into Account....and the latest version is 4.1......wrong!

Re: 4.1.1 Suggestion...finally fix the Check for Update

Did the "Check for update" using 4.01 and 4.1 and both say "Software is up to date". Still doesn't work.
