I just bought a openmv 3 camera. After I upgrade fireware online, the fireware 2.6.0 became 2.5.0. I want to upgrade again, and I have downloaded a fireware（2.6.0） file. I want to make use of this file to upgrade by OpenMV IDE and how to do it. I upgrade offline without wire, can’t do it.  
Thanks

Does everything mean a new IDE release in conjunction with the 2.6 firmware (released on Dec 4)?

Yeah, the firmware was released earlier but the next IDE will package the v2.6 firmware.

Yes, I was almost there over the weekend d but discovered an issue with the text highlighter parsing help files. I’ve fixed most of the problems but need to verify I got everything. I’m finished the process of fixing compile errors on all platforms though so I should be able to quickly get it done and release during the weekend.
