Note: The Miro Board contains screenshots of the behaviour/workflow that the new installer has

 

3. General information:

3.1: The installer now uses 7zip instead of InnoSetup

3.2: The file extensions are now .000, .001, .002, etc instead of .BIN

3.3: The installer now creates a file which is named .CACHE - the importance of the file is due to its communication to the server to verify the validity of the .00X files that the installer is downloading. If the .CACHE file is not present, the Installer will redownload it together with .00X files.

3.4: As of the 25th of March, there is an issue with the silent installation of Lumion with Installer 2.X - Danny and Floyd are working on it.

3.5: For more information when you encounter issues, please contact via GChat Peter, Dimitris or Javier.

3.6: To report issues with the installer, use the LUMINS Project in JIRA
