ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Ahoy folks,

I recently wanted to go from 1.7.4 to 1.7.6, but I'm not sure what the "correct" way would be.

I have the game residing under ~/Games/Tome and there's game data under ~/.t-engine

So, simply unpacking the 1.7.6 tar over the game directory won't do, as that gets rid of my addons and stuff (not sure what else lives there ... settings? Addon settings?)

How do I do that right, without losing anything or messing stuff up?

It's not really like tar will clear a directory, so your addons should be safe.

you can always make a backup

cp -axv ~/Games/Tome ~/Games/Tome.org

try it, and when it doesn't work, restore your original directory

rm -rf ~/Games/Tome
mv ~/Games/Tome.org ~/Games/Tome

Oh, duh ... yeah, that seemed to have worked splendidly. Thank you kindly.
