Linux / What files to download?
« on: January 04, 2010, 11:58:38 pm »
Hi, I'm playing this great game from time to time. I don't remember the game with so great atmosphere. The best feature in my opinion is that you cannot save the game during combat. Often I end the combat sweated and with shaking hands.
I decided to upgrade my version 2.2 to 2.2.1. But how? In wiki is just "download it on sourceforge". But there are four files:
ufoai-2.2.1-data.tar 390.5 MB
ufoai-2.2.1-linux.run 416.9 MB
ufoai-2.2.1-mappack.tar.bz2 72.9 MB
ufoai-2.2.1-source.tar.bz2 7.6 MB
Well, I don't need sources. But do I need ALL other three files? Or "linux.run" is enough for installation? It should be. Windows installation is only 404MB:
ufoai-2.2.1-win32.exe windows 403.9 MB
But what is "data" and "mappack" then? I Personally think that this information should be in the note next to a file name at sourceforge. And ideally in manual too.
BTW: I didn't found anywhere whether my saved games from 2.2 can be loaded in 2.2.1.
