v3.0.1
Hellar Core version 3.0.0.1 RS
We are happy to announce the release of 3.0.0.1
Release is now available from:
https://github.com/hellarcore/Wallets
This is a new hotfix release. All nodes should upgrade. We remove the differences between regular wallets and -Gen versions (used in masternodes and pools and other services), in this version we merge and mix all the differences between wallets of previous versions into one version. All future builds will also be developed in this thread.
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:

Upgrading and downgrading
How to upgrade
If you are using an older version, shut it down. Wait for a complete shutdown (which may take a few minutes for older versions), then run the installer (in Windows) or simply copy the /Applications/Hellar-Qt (in Mac) or hellard/hellar-qt (in Linux) folder. We also recommend that you keep your wallet.dat (and backup versions if you have any) separately, just in case of emergencies.
Downgrade warning
Downgrade to a version < v.1.0.1
Downgrading to a version older than v.1.0.2 is not supported due to changes in the indexes database folder. You don't need to use an older version.
Downgrade of masternodes to < v.1.0.2 / v.1.2.0.5 / v.2.0.4.9
Starting with version 1.2.0.5, masternodes check the protocol version of other masternodes. This causes PoSe penalization/prohibition for legacy masternodes, so downgrading the version even before the changes are activated is not recommended. The same parameters are used in the new version v.3.....
Notable changes
This release fixes an issue where outdated qfcommit messages played on the network were acknowledged and propagated to other nodes rather than being discarded. This patch updates the behavior so that old qfcommit will no longer be propagated.

Downgrade of masternodes to < v1.0.2
Starting with the 1.2.0.5 release, masternodes verify the protocol version of other masternodes. This results in PoSe punishment/banning for outdated masternodes, so downgrading even prior to the activation of changes is not recommended.
