Title: A question about Snapshots (Nighty Builds)
Post by: UFOtonic on August 13, 2011, 05:29:26 pm

Regarding the buils available at http://ufoai.ninex.info/snapshots/

Could anyone tell me if it is advisable to uninstall an outdated Nighty Build prior to the installation of a updated one, or if there is no problem on installing it directly, in a similar way to the "Win32 Development Binary Installer Links" that Mutton builds from time to time?

Thanks in advance.

it's safer to uninstall it, but it's not really needed though. the only things that might conflict are the settings stored in your home dir - but those are not included in the installer

Thank you for your answer, Mattn.
