### This is the *old* 3.x branch of the project, with Face Recognition, but no Over The Air updates

I will continue to fix bugs as needed on this branch for the forseeable future, but will not be adding any new features

You need to **downgrade** the esp32 board definition in the Arduino IDE to use this, instructions are below but please understand that this is not really recommended, the only reason you should be using this branch is to investigate the (very limited!) Face Recognition features of the camera module.

See the [master](https://github.com/easytarget/esp32-cam-webserver/tree/master/) branch for the current (v4+) version which has lost the basic Face Recognition features, but gained Over The Air updates and other new features.

This will give you an archive file with the Version number in it, eg.`esp32-cam-webserver-3.0.zip`. Tou need to unpack this into your Arduino sketch folder, and then you need to rename the folder you just extracted to remove the version number, eg.`esp32-cam-webserver-3.0` becomes `esp32-cam-webserver`.
