When the new version of RPH comes out how do you update your callout plugin to work with it? Is it as simple as switching out the references or do you have to change things in your code? I just want to be prepared so when it does come out I can know and hop right on it.

It should as simple as switching references unless the new RPH update has changed methods from existing methods that you used. In that case, after switching the reference, Intellisense will tell you where the errors are, then read the changelog to know what has been changed and fix it. And finally compile it.

Switch out the referenced dll files and you should be good to go. Any methods or variables you used which have changed or deprecated will be highlighted by VS.

Obviously test you did it right by loading your plugin in the game before releasing it lol.

Sounds easy enough, thanks! :)

Do people actually do that? I just cross my fingers I didn't make a typo somewhere. I think it's totally overrrated.

Once upon a time I ran into a weird bug that only manifested when I had run a Release build through an obscufator. Ever since I always make sure to triple-quadruple test everything before releasing it publicly!

The problem with this is i get utterly bored playing my own stuff..i think i had to play the Terrorist subway attack 150+times to get it right. 

Most times you don't NEED to release an update. Most new versions are backwards compatible as long as not too much stuff changed.

That being said, however, don't let it slide too long lol. And if you're updating stuff anyway, its best practice to use the latest version.

You don't even want to know how many peds I've slaughtered so I could call EMS on them! And I've had to kill them in every way possible too... 

"Attention all units. Medical assistance requested in Grand Sonora Desert for... a civilian shot   an officer on fire   a motor vehicle accident   an ebola exposure. We have multiple injuries. Dispatch units from... Sandy Shores Fire Station... an ambulance requested from Sandy Shores Hospital. Units respond Code 3." ... soo many times!

When you cant like anymore posts because you hit limit of 30 >:(

Thank you guys for all your help, much appreciated!

A little tip from me: I always reference the *.dll from the main GTA V folder so anytime I update RAGE VS uses the proper version of the hook and I don't need to do anything

That's it?

God, I must've done like 400 bank heists. I hate that call now 

Personally, I have a single dependencies folder and I just replace everything in there. VS will find the updated assembly automatically.
