Need Skyline 20.1.0.31 32bit (f09d9bed5) wnc4  2020-11-04 07:30
 

Hi, I am working with a collaborator and they are using an older version of skyline. I would like to import the current transitions everyone else is using but I do not have the same software version. I have the newer software version. Where can I download the older version from?

The way to get to older versions of Skyline is by clicking the "Archive" link on the page from one of the "Unplugged" installer pages.

Here is the page for 32 bit unplugged installers:
https://skyline.ms/wiki/home/software/Skyline/page.view?name=install-disconnected_20_2
After you click the "I agree" button you will be able to click the "Archive" link that appears.

Current versions of Skyline can always open Skyline documents that were created by older versions of Skyline.
If you are using the current version of Skyline and you need to give your document to someone who is using an older version of Skyline, you can use the menu item:
File > Share
to create a .zip file containing a document that can be opened by the older version of Skyline.

I am not sure I understand why you think you need to go back to an older version of Skyline in order to use the same transitions that someone else is using. Normally, the reason that people need older versions of Skyline is to exactly reproduce the numbers that the older version of Skyline was calculating. (Also, if you're in the middle of spending several months analyzing a large complicated dataset, that would be another reason not to want to upgrade).

Also, we always recommend that people use the current version of Skyline. Do you know why your collaborator does not want to use the latest version (20.2) of Skyline? Please let us know if there is something wrong with the current version of Skyline which prevents them from wanting to use the current version.

Questions, though: Why exactly do you need 32-bit Skyline? Is it because you have only 32-bit Windows?

64-bit Skyline 20.1.0.31 should be functionally equivalent to the 32-bit version. You might also consider taking the latest version of Skyline 20.1 (20.1.0.155) which should only have critical bug fixes and will not change any file formats.
