[QUOTE="NoEx, post: 213214, member: 5267"] If FarSight provides an update in the middle of my night and you let steam updates PBA, it won't work because the game's version will be something like 1.39.9 and the mod checks the version at startup, at this time my server setups the mod to work on version 1.39.8, you'll get the incorrect game version error message. The update i've made on the mod yesterday is just to automatically retrieve the offsets patch I provide when the game is updated, this way you don't have to re-download the mod to get the new version updated to work on the latest game update, you just have to wait until I deploy the new offsets on my server and restart the mod to get them. Furthermore when the game has been updated and my mod not, you won't be able to start it, you'll get a "mod under maintenance" message which means that i'm currently retrieving the new offsets. To answer the last part of your post, when the game is updated and i want to make some tests and don't have time to update my mod on the latest game version, just before the game update, i make a backup of PinballArcade11.exe, let the game updates, then i rename the updated game exe and replace it with the old game exe, this way the game version doesn't change and you can still use the mod until i update it, well if the update contains a new table you won't be able to start it but it works for the older tables.
