Package Patching

Scripting Issues
1

I’ve read through the manual several times and I can’t seem to get the patches to auto-download. Am I suppose to enable something for it to look for patches?

I used the following command to create the p3d and package files:

ppackage -i C:/game -p game.pdef

The result is one p3d file and one package.

Then I made a small change in one of the package files to test patching, so I would just use that same command correct? Then it created the updated package along with a patch due to the -p option. Then I just transferred all the output files to my host server. But when I ran the old p3d file, no changes were made meaning it didn’t even download the patch?

So if this is all correct. What did I miss?

Nevermind. I found out that I need to use the -f option with panda3d to look up patches as it doesn’t do it automatically.
