While this roundup covers add-ins released through the Autodesk App Store, we also cover add-ins from other corners of the Internet. For the rest of the picture, see our current "week in review" article.



Apparent False Updates

Most weeks there are a number of add-ins listed on the App Store as having been updated when they appear not to have been. We call these apparent false updates. We identify these by comparing the current version numbers with our last posts about the add-ins.

False updates occur when:
  • Developers forget to update or change version numbers
  • Developers publish new artwork or change branding without updating the actual add-ins
  • Developers purposefully re-publish the same versions (a deceptive practice)
  • There are glitches in the App Store

In the hopes that the App Store will someday address these issues, or problem developers will cease purposefully deceitful practices, we list the apparent false updates below.

  • BIM&CO
    • BIM&CO
  • LastResort
    • Light Distribution
  • Omnia Revit
    • Scope Box Synchronizer (price change–now free)
  • PROISAC-BIM-VDC
    • Advanced Revision Cloud
    • Styler

The Scope Box Synchronizer update is not that deceitful, IMHO - it's a price change. Thanks for the blog and have a great day, Reviteers!

Thanks for letting us know—it wasn’t apparent to us. Kinda falls under our second bullet above, but we’ll correct the article tomorrow. :)
