I have a gig this Friday (21 December) and frankly I will not update even if its out before this date - my project works fine as it is and I wont risk troubleshooting and malfunctions (not that this is standard with updates, buy ya know, if it aint broke dont fix it thing). This will be my first gig with Lemur so I will be reporting back to tell ya how it all went. After that date, I will of course update to 4.
Initial play with L4 here . . . crashed twice within minutes. Changing the skin did it the once, and adding a new page to a template using in-app editing did it the second.

So at least on my setup (iPad 2, iOS 6.01) it's buggy as hell.

Not to worry though - I'm sure the guys will have it all sorted out within ooohh . . . months and months, if not sooner! :D

Don't upgrade before the gig. I did that already twice this year. In no sense was it a good idea on either occasion.

The skinning looks fairly rudimentary - "bitmaps and xml, have fun". That's the tale so far, as I'm experiencing it.
HI
Have never had it crash under those conditions. In fact no crashes with RC versions
Can you send crash logs? Are you running standard iOS?

There will be updates in the New Year - I believe Liine has a pretty good update track record.

And of course - you should NEVER alter a working system just before a crucial event . . .

Re Skins - System in place to support provided skins, more work to be done . . .
It is not necessarily a case of 'here, re-skin the whole app, with a simple user system . . .' sorry . . .
Running std iOS yep. Can send along crashlogs no problem - can you tell me how to go about that and I'll scoot those along? Cheers. :)

And yeah, 'twas a foolhardy thing to update before hitting the beach, but on both occasions it was upgrades to address bugs, or fix / improve things already causing problems and so I felt I hadn't much option. It's hardly been an orgy of added features round here.

The std iOS thing is very likely to change in future - as it's probably the largest contributing factor to (not) recovering from catastropic upgrades, among other things.

[edit: moar info]

Win 7 Pro 32bit.

Just noticed that in the Skins dir, (Pixel) - there's a 0KB file ("empty") where there should be an "Object" dir full of bitmaps. As this was the skin in use during both ops described, looks like a likely suspect. Reinstalled,no fix - could be a corrupt download (or a bug in the installer).
Argh


This update sucks ass. My MKS80 template from the user base is ruined with crap faders etc.

Is there any way to change this back. I have tried reinstalling the template but its the same.

If this isn't resolved I wanna go back to the previous version does anyone know if this is possible??
