BiteFX for Windows: Do You Have the Latest Updates?

Posted by Doug Brown on Fri, Dec 20, 2013 @ 16:12 PM

We issue updates with new animations, pictures, presentations or software fixes fairly regularly. We try to limit the updates to one a month, though occasionally we break this rule if we need to release a software fix quickly. If we are developing more complex animations or are in the process of issuing a major upgrade, updates are much less frequent.

This post will be updated each time we release a new update for BiteFX for Windows so you can check that you are up-to-date.

Here's the quick check for having the latest updates (lower down in this blog I'll give you the history, but I expect most of you won't want to know all that detail):

  1. From the BiteFX menu select "About".

  2. Check that the version number displayed at the right, above Credits is BiteFX 4.0.24 (did you know you can click on Credits to see a list of all those who helped put BiteFX together?).

  3. Close the "About" box by clicking on "OK".

  4. From the BiteFX menu select "Updates".

  5. In the BiteFX Update dialog click in the "Show installed updates" box at the bottom right (just above the "Close" button).

  6. You should see something like the following listed (older version of BiteFX displayed with the latest update being Update 78):

  7. If you see that the latest update status is "Installed", you are up-to-date.
