Updating OpenMW
How do I do this? I'm used to clicking a couple buttons followed by downloading/installing then it's done after another click or two. Thanks.
Re: Updating OpenMW
if on windows: download the new release or nigtlies and install to new location or delete old one and to same. if to different location, make a new shortcut and you'r set.

Or simply use Chocolatey.

Currently, the Chocolatey package doesn't update cleanly. You need to uninstall the previous version before installing the new one. Ace is aware of this, though, so it might be fixed at some point.

Re: Updating OpenMW
Oops just installed .40 with .39 still in. Is there something I need to do remedy the situation? Or is it no biggy just uninstall .39 and more than likely everything is good? Windows 64-bit btw. Does this mean new profiles every update? Not to concerned if so.
Re: Updating OpenMW
Just uninstall .39, so no biggie. No new profiles required either. All the settings and saves are stored in my documents, so they will still be there when you uninstall the old version and install a new version.PrimordialBronze wrote:Oops just installed .40 with .39 still in.
