Upgrading to 26.3 | Pixotope Help Center

We do not recommend that you upgrade your Pixotope machines in the middle of a production or pre-production phase.

When choosing to upgrade, we recommend that you back up your existing Pixotope projects, so that you will be able to go back if you need to.

Installer

After the install you can now enable

Launch Pixotope [Pixotope version number]
- This will launch the newly installed version and before that close any open one
Enable autorun (start after reboot)
- On next machine restart, the newly installed version will be autostarted

Setting what output texture to output, moved from Pixotope World Settings > General > Video outputs to Director > Routing panel > Output texture.

The Gateway API deprecated the version segment. However, versioned URLs still work.

To carry over show files and machine settings from an old installation, you can

Click "Copy folder" at the start of the installation
OR manually copy the files into the Local storage folder of the new installation

When opening a project from Unreal or an old Pixotope version:

When prompted in the Editor, click "Update"
- This will update your .uproject file
Restart the Editor

Unreal projects can be used in Pixotope right away and do not need any migration steps.
