i currently have beta3 installed using the installer. Now beta4 is out, anyone know any easy way to update?

i tried unpacking the new beta overtop and rerunning the fixinstall sript and it made it so that i couldn't start a new game or load an old one - the menu options were grayed out.

i just made a backup of my save games and deleted and started from scratch.

updated to beta4 with 1,2 and 3 previous installed without having to do a reinstall, did you get a good download?


edit update: when I try to start the nnw client with nwncleint i can't start new game or load but if I go and cd to nwn and start with nwn it starts and I can load or start new game, this has always worked like this so my questions to you is what command do you use to start nwn? nwnclient, nwn, nwn, dmcleint? I use nwn and it works.

i saw it was out on their site, great I thought.
Read on and knew it was gonna be a major arse to install.
if you have any luck, give us a solution.
when i install linux again i'll give it a go.

hope it goes well.

so do you just unzip beta4 into the same folder, and it will overwrite whatever to update to the newer version?
