New Version of MetaTrader 4 Client Terminal Build 418 - page 2

 
WE NO BETA TEST
 
Shame on you MetaQuotes! Now I've updated to Build 418 and I can't use my EA!!! I expect you to fix this problem soon! How could you have realesed the update without proper and basic testing?
 
I have done some testing, and it appears the issue has to do with any dll function that returns a type of double. We are in the process of contacting brokers that we have found that are affected. If everyone else does the same, maybe they will notice and fix this, and hopefully as a temporary fix roll back to somewhere between build 409 and 416.
 
Doesn't look like this affects double[]'s so that's a good sign :)

Well, that can happen. Stanislav from the support team told me that they work on it and will release a new build next week. In the meantime, don't update your terminal. If you already have, you can switch back to previous version by replacing the terminal.exe file with an older version.

I just wrote about on my blog. Here is the link to the post: http://pipburner.com/metatrader-build-418-bug-alarm-how-to-switch-back-to-previous-version/

If you need to rollback to Build 416, here's another way to do it: http://mnikolic.com/metatrader-4-build-416-manual-update-t-482.html
 

I have lost some money with this changes, I have customers that had lost a hugh amount of money because this situation! I don't know what metaquotes think about customers who are using their platform and losing money! This is not professional work! How they will work to recover the money that customers all around the world are losing or lost until discovered this issue???

 

Double returned by external function as functional result does not work at all. Double parameters passed as argument are working.

What QA process is established in Metaquotes that somebody can release in production such fundamental error which may cause money lost !!! Thumbs down.
