4.85, will it require a re-install? - Jinx - 10-22-2008
hehe - but there are still people with smaller HDD s out there - that cannot run a clean vanilla 1.0 backup:$- but you re right - THAT is the best way to keep a clean folder.
( on the other hand - i saw an external HDD - something over 1000 GB USB2 for like 80? - so i guess i could just upgrade a little - but i m too lazy )

The best, safest most secure way to uninstall a mod is to reformat your computer:lol:
I use the "Tools>Restore Backups" option, never had a problem.

:(I lost the disk I was using for it.. Guess I will have to convince my friend to get it for me again... My bro took the original disk with him to Idaho.. If I mess with anything else.. well lets just say I would be like a monkey with a wrench in an expensive China Shop. (For those of you who don't know "China" is commonly used in reference to expensive dinner ware. Plates, etc.)

' Wrote:in theory, you can uninstally the 4.84 and reinstall the 4.85 with FLMM.
however - it is advisable that you:
- uninstall 4.84 with FLMM
- uninstall freelancer and ALL its traces from the registry and your private folders
- TAKE DOWN YOUR ACCOUNT ID !!!
defrag the system
- reboot the system and make a 100% fresh installation form your original freelancer CD
- upload 4.85 into FLMM
- install 4.85 onto the fully fresh freelancer 1.0 version you just installed
- run the new disco mod - and setup the links for the server
- enter your old account ID
that is the best way to do it.... every time you "just use FLMM" - things can be left behind. - so - i d advice ( once the public beta starts ) to make a fully fresh installation.
That is the way I do it.:D
