indicates that the AC 26 Update 3 Preview (build 5002, 5003) was available for language localizations INT, AUS, NZE, UKI, USA, GER and AUT for all operating systems/platforms.

 

I just tried checking for this preview - USA edition -  (appropriate Work Environment setting to include previews) - and I just get "Your Archicad is up-to-date".

 

Has the preview been removed?  Has anyone been able to download it in any localization yet?

I think the release date is correct.

The preview build 5002 was released on Feb 19.

The actual release build is still build 5002, so it seems nothing has actually changed in the update.

So that build was indeed released on Feb 19.

Hello Martin,

 

Thank you for this feedback! You are right, the date for the final version of the update should be 04/03/23, so I contacted the team responsible for the Updates page's development and it should be fixed soon. Even though the same build number is used for the final version, (as there was no technical need to change it after the preview period,) we handle it as a new entity on the site, therefore it should refer to the final version's release date.

 

Once again, thank you for bringing this to our attention!
