 Re: Build 26 Okay so I didn't have the time to read through the whole thread so if this has been answered then sorry for asking again.
Can I install over Build 25 or should I do a clean install?

Re: Build 26 I'm not sure, but do a clean install to prevent annoying little problems you might get.

When a new version comes out I always rename the old directory by appending the build number, then install the new version, and slowly copy over mods to test (and correct) compatibility. This way I never have any false positives on mod compatibility in a new build.

Re: Build 26 I've been doing that with every build, and have mentioned it already with the B24/25 mod false compatibilities.

Re: Build 26 It doesn't really solve problems before they are problems, but that method does make the problems a little more manageable to solve, which is why I've done it that way since uhh B18, I imagine.
It's also nice to not get your edits of vanilla content overwritten, if you have any, and I always have.

Re: Build 26 On HIB, the Linux version wasn't updated. At least in the filename it says b25 while it says b26 in the mac and windows filenames.

Re: Build 26 That's where you're supposed to go.
Enter in your registration email as your username and your old pre-b24 key as your password and you'll get access to the new versions.

Re: Build 26 No, new versions will be on your HIB download page. The keys are only if you bought it outside of HIB.
