I'm sorry, i'm new to itch.io. I've dled the latest version, extracted it. Now what? Do i copy the "saves" folder over to the newer version? Cause i did and got a shitload of errors and failures. If anyone wouldn't mind explaining how to apply these updates to me like i'm a special needs child i'd really appreciate it cause i can't seem to make this work. Thanks in advance
ok, so what i did exactly was select the updated zip. Clicked extract all. Then i selected the headmaster 12.3.1 folder and clicked extract. It didn't overwrite anything though. It just created a completely seperate folder within the original. What am i doing wrong? I swear i'm not usually this technically challenged but for some reason i just can't figure this out
Yeah, it sounds like you basically extracted a new installation within the existing folder. Delete that new folder and pay attention to what you're extracting and to where.
What you really want to do is select the contents of the Headmaster folder in the ZIP, and extract it to the existing main Headmaster folder (there should be game, lib, & renpy folders and four other files. These will overwrite the existing ones).
(I’d suggest renaming the Headmaster folder, just for your own reference because it's not going to be version 12.3.1 any more, but that's up to you.)
