Daz to blender bridge version error #148

Open Thunderas opened 1 year ago

While i install daz to blender bridge for daz studio 4.20, (Daz is showing that it installs bridge version 18.42), in reality when i enable the addon inside blender it shows that the actual version Daz installed is 17.40. I tried everything but everytime the version that is installed won't be the 18.42 that daz claims.

Correct. The Daz Sutdio-based C++ source code was bugfixed and version was incremented but the Blender-based python code was NOT altered, so version remained the same. The major and minor versions match, only the revision number and build numbers have changed.

To avoid confusion, future version numbering scheme will use the last number as a bugfix and build number, rather than just a build number. That way, the major-minor-revision numbers can stay consistent with each official release while being updated with hotfixes, etc.

Thank you!

Reopening this issue so that people are aware of the confusion with version numbers that are not actually mismatched. This confusion in understanding version numbers should be resolved with the next update which will switch to a more intuitive version numbering scheme.
