Oh? Whats XVI Census btw? I am not really a graphics person. The only few graphics programs i use are microsoft stupid photoeditor (for screenshots capturing) and GIMP 2.0. Lol.
What are XCF?? I am really nuts at graphics rendering (just not my forte and not my interest much). lol.
Ildamos:
I'm doing concept art for this game. The XVI Census is: http://ufoai.ninex.info/wiki/index.php/Research/XVI_Census
XCF is the file extension of the photo editing program The Gimp. ;D

Hahaha, this is embarrassing..... i din even realised XCF is for GIMP 2 haha. I usually set it to default in JPG tats why. Haha. :P
Like i say, i am nuts with graphics; to me, most arts are nice when i thnk they are nice, wont be able to comment further on this. lol.

Odie I had my wife DL your latest compilation and now I'm ready to uninstall the previous build. (Yes, her name is Lilah, she's also a gamer and I'm Ethan. I have a best friend named Lucas.) However, I want to clean my registry clean of UFO: AI traces AND save my games.
So what I'm going to do is make a copy of these files:
paste it somewhere safe like MyDOcs > My Porn (kidding. ;D), uninstall the games, install your newest compilation.
Copy-pasting the above folders to that same directory should reinstate my games right? And if I decide to install again 2.2.1, I could simply c-paste the 2.2.1 folder in the same directory and continue where I left off right?
Thanks for any helpful reply. ;D

Hi Ildamos,
Wow! Interesting ring of relationships with all-familar names u have! Lol.
Back to topic: :P
Those 2 directories are the correct ones to backup. :)
Just save em somewhere if u intend to remove all settings during the uninstallation procedure.
The regedit is usually not necessarily, cos i seen the uninstaller doing a good job. But if u wish, all instances of "ufo" will be good enuf. :P Unless u have some other ufo-like games. :D
Actually, when u uninstall 2.3, and keep your 2.2.1 or other earlier versions, the save games will only be removed for that particular version. But regarding the reinstatement procedures u gave, it is definately the case. Copying your particular versions' savegames will bring back and reinstate your old savegames alrite. :D
A note on this, if its 2.3 - dev u are talking about, some earlier versions' (revisions) savegames do break. So take note of that.
Toodles!
Have fun both u and wife. :D
