TBBS VGA Planets Manager 2.1 - Upgrade From Version 1.0 Instructions
These instructions only pertain to those Sysops that are upgrading from
VGAPMAN 1.0 to 2.1.
If you are installing version 2.1 for the first time, the file UPGRADE.EXE
may be deleted from the VGAPMAN directory. No changes are necessary to
upgrade the 2.1 databases.
To upgrade the 1.0 databases to the new 2.1 version, the following steps need
to be performed correctly to ensure compatibility with the new code.
1. Unzip the TVPM21.ZIP file into the directory where VGAPMAN 1.0 is
installed, overwriting all files. This will update the VGAPMAN database
structures. This process will not overwrite the game.dbfs so do not be
alarmed. Care must be taken not to delete the game.dbfs.
2. Run the UPGRADE.EXE utility. This program will upgrade all existing
game.dbfs.
3. Enter the VGAPMAN directory when the upgrade program asks for the
location. Once a valid directory is entered, the program will update all
of the game files to the new version.
The upgrade process is now complete. UPGRADE.EXE can now be deleted from the
VGAPMAN directory to conserve hard drive space.
Please see VGAPMAN.DOC for information concerning new features.
