Sorry, schoolboy error, release 3.6.1 has messed up the realtime.txt file (additional line feed), fix out shortly...

Re: v3.6.1 - realtime.txt error
Upgraded Just now;
One notable thing was that \interface\now.html appeared unchanged from my previous version.
Is the realtime.txt issue easily recified by reverting to previous versions of CumulusMX.exe & fluentFTP.dll?
Thanks
Phil.

Re: v3.6.1 - realtime.txt error
3.6.2 is now available to fix the realtime.txt issue.
The now.html file has definitely been updated - subtle, you just get the degree symbol on the wind directions now.

Re: v3.6.1 - realtime.txt error
The 3077 I downloaded mast have been cached out there somewhere, same bytes & time stamps as the 3076.
Did also download it after you mentioned the change, so cached in the only viable explaination.
Cheers

Think you must have been looking at the wrong directory.

Re: v3.6.1 - realtime.txt error
Gotta be one of those weird paradoxes!
Zip file contains the updated one, but the extracted folder, (Via 7-Zip has a different time stamp.
Just cant figure how that comes about.
