Fresh Install from Milestone?
« on: July 13, 2018, 10:13:29 pm »
Hi, I just bought the game on Steam for a friend, to introduce him into OXC.

Can he use the milestone from the main page?

If he wants to play only vanilla, yes.

If he wants to play ANY mods, definitely not... use nightly instead.

So he can ignore the milestone and go directly to the nightly?
Or should he first install the milestone and then the nightly over it?

(It`s years, since I did it myself for me).

The nightly is a complete working version, you'll just need to drop the UFO/TFTD files in the proper directory with just the nightly download.

Didn`t know that, cause the nightly is so small.
