S3D V. 3.0.2 download

Post by Lateralg » Wed Feb 10, 2016 7:38 pm

Has anyone successfully downloaded version 3.0.2?

If so, what are the steps? (I've owned S3D for > 3 years)

Been a while, but as i recall you need to register before downloading the update. Then you go to your Account page and it has the Update button on that page.

Version 3.02 changes some things though - infill extrusion width overlap settings and whatnot. (Much cooler infill patterns though.) :D

S3D site sends me to "upGRADE ACCOUNT". I merely need to download & install the software "upDATE" to 3.0.2

Example: I did 1,2,& 3 as shown below.

"Previous Simplify3D Software users can upgrade their accounts using the steps below:
1.Locate your Simplify3D Software product key. This key was emailed to you immediately following your purchase with a subject heading of "Simplify3D Software Product Key".
2.Enter your product key along with the email address where you originally received this key into the form below.
3.After you submit the form, we will send an email to that address to verify your new account.
Once your account is verified, you will be able to access the latest features from Simplify3D including the new Version 3.0 software update!"

I Clicked on "UPGRADE ACCOUNT" and got the following:
"An account with that email address already exists. Please return to the login page to access your account and download the software. If you have an additional license that you would like to merge into this account, please contact our support staff."

"return to the login page to access your account and download the software."
Doesn't work for me.

(BTW: I'm now using 3.0.1, and I registered a few years ago)

I merely need to download & install the software "upDATE" to 3.0.2

Oh, in that case just open S3D and click on Help > Check for Updates.

It's my habit to: "Help > Check for Updates", but I don't believe the required links were there earlier.

Thanks Jules.

Actually it changed from 2.0 to 3.0, so if you're running any version of 3.0, you're okay. No further changes since then. :lol:

I meant from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2. I found the changelog, it's nothing with stability improvements.
