Have you tried the newer versions? I would recommend trying with v2.0.0 Beta 2.

scruss commented 8 years ago

I followed the Click here for the latest release link under Downloads / Install, and it took me to v0.95

v0.9.5 is the latest stable release, however the v2.0.0-Beta.2 (and Beta.1) release have many significant improvements to RoboPaint. We probably should update the documentation to reflect this.

You can find the v2.0.0-Beta.2 release on the releases page.

oskay commented 8 years ago

It does indeed link to the older version. :(
This does appear to be a significant failure of documentation.

Would you please give the current version a try?

docprofsky commented 8 years ago

It links to the most recent release, ignoring pre-releases.
