And after 6 pages worth of discussions, sigh...

Did you end up using Node's updated launcher console to make it work? Did you need to start from 4.44.1x again? I have it all updated at 4.44.2x but programming data still 4.44.11

No.

a) contacted my seller
b) re-sync license with ispi admin
c) re-run licensed ista launcher

... and finally, the familiar screen,

I wish to advise, mine also works with the standard launcher now. The seller I think has repaired the issue.

The problem I have as I have always used the updater form Sedoy. As a result, I only ever kept the BMW_ISPI_ISTA-META_SDP_xxx.xml files. I did not keep the other BMW_ISPI_ISTA-META_xxx.xml files because they were not needed. However, it seems as of this update, the BLP is no longer referenced in the SDP.xml, but only the META.xml. While I can use the updated launcher from Node, it doesn't work, because I don't have the previous META.xml files that are now referenced as dependencies (and the links have expired). So now, I am seemingly stuck.

This was covered a few pages back in this very thread. You need to edit the XML file...

Understood, but my concern here is that while I can modify the XML file to force it to work, I wonder if next update will be the same. In which case, it will be a matter of a. modifying each XML file to reference the BLP and b. ensuring all modified XML files reference previous dependencies which are also missing from the SDP XML in this update (if I need to perform a fresh install this is especially important). I am hoping this is a "one off", but time will tell.

Update: I was misinterpreting the logs. In short, I resolved the issue by putting BMW_ISPI_ISTA-META_4.44.22.xml in the Downloads folder (non SDP file not normally required) + the 'normal' SDP xml. Then, remove everything from the META xml that is not related to BLP. The output should look like the attached. (rename to .xml). I would imagine we will have to do this for every subsequent update, but at least it works.

FYI I tried with both the old Sedoy launcher (1.2.4.9) and the updated launcher from Node (1.2.4.11) and neither worked before I did this but both worked after I did this. Although, I didn't let the Sedoy launcher complete so maybe it wouldn't have worked if I let it finish.

Hi guys,
Here is the correct xml file for Launcher Console from Sedoy.
rename to .xml.
