Hello, if I want to force my users to update the application, how can I block older game versions?

Can I just change my AppID?

Thanks,

Joel

    Hi @OneEyed,

    Thank you for choosing Photon!

    As shown on this documentation page, you need to implement this in your own custom authentication provider.

    You can also change AppId and archive old one, @Markus can confirm if this option is OK.
    If you just want to separate players by builds just change GameVersion/AppVersion.

    You can of course switch the appid, however, this is a rather unflexible approach, in case you have a paid subscription. Closing a monthly subscription keeps it active until end of month.

    Using authentication is a better way of doing this.
