Leadwerks Updater goes on indefinitely

Recommended Posts

Description:

The Leadwerks Updater kept downloading files indefinitely after multiple hours on a fast internet connection, while displaying 100% as progress.

 

Steps to reproduce:

1-Download and run the updater

2-Check "Force update" and "Clean install"

3-Press the update button

 

N.B.: I previously had a demo version installed in "C:\Leadwerks", so perhaps this is related.

Here's a log of the download with just "Force update" checked.

As you can notice, it loops this section forever after being done:

 

Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Fonts/arial.ttf.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Fonts/MORPHEUS.TTF.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Architecture/arch01a.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Architecture/column01a.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Architecture/column01b.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Architecture/column01c.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Characters/Goblin/Goblin.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Containers/barrel01a.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Decorations/switch.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Decorations/woodcart.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/Prefabs/Effects/smallflame.pfb.meta"...
Downloading "Projects/DarknessAwaits/projecticon.tex.meta"...

 

On a side note, it doesn't download the \Engine\Source folder correctly either. I'm missing a lot of files.

Since no one else has experienced this, I recommend leaving the optional settings unchecked. It is possible these just haven't been used yet and no one noticed a problem.

 

The updater downloads a zip file full of header files into the engine/source folder and then unzips them when finished.

 

I don't doubt this could be a real problem, since I experienced something similar when I was creating the program.

My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.
