Title: Is there install documentation for the current version?
Post by: Jaque_Thay on February 01, 2025, 06:09:01 PM

Hi all, last time I posted was 2016... and last time I played we were still waiting for C# to be released.

I finally have time on my hands again and want to dip my toe back in... but I've long since forgotten what the installation process is.

Have seen a few threads discussing it, but the most recent one is 7+ months old.

Is there anything current on what I need to do / can anyone describe steps involved?

The usual instructions would be to download the complete installation for 1.13 I think and then manually download each update/patch in the order they were released and replace the files they mention, but I think only the .exe and the dabatase file changed, so I **think** you can just download the 1.13 installation and then 2.5 and 2.5.1 respectively instead of going through all of them one by one?

Yes, see here (https://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php?topic=13462.msg170928#msg170928).

There is a subforum called "C# Installation" (https://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php?board=276.0) for exactly this purpose. The sticky threads always contain what you need to install the game. Refer here in the future when updating to a new game version.
