Update and migration¶
Update an installed engine version through Zodiac Engine Hub. Before changing a project's version, review the release notes for breaking changes and keep a recoverable copy of the project.
Moving to ZEngine 1.0.0¶
ZEngine 1.0.0 includes a breaking asset-importer change: importer and codec writes now use VFS paths. Read the exact release entry before upgrading:
Suggested update flow¶
- Commit or back up the project before changing engine versions.
- Install the target version through Zodiac Engine Hub.
- Read the release notes and migration entries for every version being crossed.
- Open a copy of the project with the target engine and verify asset import, editor startup, and launch behavior.
- Update the project only after that verification succeeds.
For source-built projects, also rebuild the engine and refresh generated assets before testing the project. See Build from source.
