What's the next update for 2020.3?

Postby awen » Sat Oct 30, 2021 5:25 pm

Hi all,

I am just curious when I find that the latest stable version, 2020.3.11, was released four months ago. Is there going to be another version of LTS or is it jumping toward something like 2020.5 or 2022.1? I know there is a lot going on in the background, but I was not able to open the recent nightly build of 2020.4 on OSX. (It crashed immediately on 12.0.1 Monterey.) So I am just wondering what is going on with the development. Thanks folks for your great efforts!

The 2020.3.X releases are only patches which fixed things. You'll only see another one, if more stuff needs to be fixed.

The next expected LTS will probably be 2022.3 with an expected release date near the end of 2022.

20204 aka next currently undergoes major changes so things can break. If you want to keep using nightlies, try in a few days, if it has been fixed. (personally I always keep a working version around, if the latest next build fails)

it remains to be seen what the next update/release is and when it will happen...

Thanks for letting me know. But the last working 4.0 version for me was from May 2021. I do not know why it always crashes. Hopefully it works someday cuz I really enjoy testing out new features!
