Upgrade question

hermy65 · 2007-10-30, 20:01

Im still using RC1 with the last SVN released for it. Now that RC3 is out, is there a good reason for me to update to RC3 or just keep using what im using now. Or should I update to RC2 and wait for RC3 to get better? Can someone help me out here.

I cannot honestly think of 1 reason to not update, backup the whole MP folder to a safe place in case you want to restore it. make sure you have your copy of MP RC1 + the last svn you used backed up as well, just in case.

Some Database Files have been updated so yours may or may not be compatible, if not then either start from scratch or revert back by reinstalling your previous setup and copying the old folder contents back.

Do not actually think that MP0.2.3.0 final will be out till Christmas (could be surprised).

Depends if there is something particular you want like xface skin etc.
