Can anyone here please clarify how to properly update one of the versions if not through the in-game updater? I've read the thread and I am still very confused. If Thorfinn's explanation is for that (which I am not sure if it is) then I am stuck on the first step. "Install new version. Do not remove the old version." Where does the new version get installed? And how do you avoid removing the old version? I have successfully followed the steps to get a 1.20.3 folder up and running. But I'm stuck on how to do the same thing for a 1.20.4, if not using the auto updater. Do you use the installer downloaded off the website? But then, where are you to install that? In the 1.20.4 folder that I made (that is currently unpopulated)? Edit: Tried my best to figure it out but ended up scrapping everything and starting again, still super confused about how to have 2 different versions. Edit: Have scrapped and retried multiple times closely scouring every post on this thread, following every step to the letter and still I can't seem to update any version (not even the original install) manually. When installing the manual update from the website, I selected the copied over directory I made from the working 1.20.3 directory I had made (not the original), so that should be the right one shouldn't it? Then once installed, I renamed the directory to something I'd recognise I made a shortcut of the launch exe from that and edited it's target to match the new directory location. Yet, when I launch that shortcut it's still version 1.20.3, not 1.20.4. And neither the separate 1.20.3 install nor the original install got updated either, so I don't know what did. And yes, I've double, triple, quadruple, lost count checked the target IS right. Edit: Turns out, the update did take effect I just can't get the shortcut to properly target it, even though the Start in: leads to the vintagestory folder inside the newly copied directory (where the update went), and target: correctly points to the copied directory. If I'm slow to reply apologies I may be napping, got a headache. Got this figured out, was missing the \data\ part of the path.
