RouteConverter 3.5 is ready

[routeconverter]

RouteConverter 3.5 is out — a trust-and-stabilisation release.

The Windows installers and the standalone Java artifacts are now code-signed (via the SignPath Foundation), so Windows SmartScreen and Defender no longer warn about them. The app moves to Java 21, the macOS bundle now launches cleanly on Apple Silicon, and there's a round of fixes for download integrity, the background map, and KML/GPX parsing. No new features this time — the POI search arrived in 3.4.

Note: the standalone jar now needs Java 21 or later (the installers bundle their own runtime).

Hi, thanks for your great work! The link https://releases.routeconverter.com/  allows me to download version 3.5 for Linux, but for Windows it downloads the older version 3.4.
On github windows download is correct.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, or the Windows link is wrong....

Thanks for the report — you're right, and it was my mistake, not yours.

With 3.5 I renamed the download files and merged the two Windows variants (with-Java / needs-Java) into a single installer. The download page, however, was still linking to the old 3.4 filenames, which were left over on the server — so the Windows link kept handing you the previous 3.4 build. Linux happened to still resolve to 3.5.

I've corrected the links on the downloads page. Please reload https://www.routeconverter.com/downloads/ (force-refresh, Ctrl+F5) and try the Windows download again — it should now be 3.5. If your browser cached the old file, clear it or pick "save as" once more.

Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for flagging it.
