I see the errors:
Cannot Open Mesh File Watson_f.bfxm
Cannot Open Mesh File Watson_shield.bfxm

But those files should have been added last night... are you sure everything is up-to-date in the "units" directory?

I also see that the modules folder hasn't been updated in a while, or else there is something weird going on.

If youa ren't sure, go into "units", and into "watson", and check if those two Watson_f and Watson_shield.bfxm are there.

I am very new to the world of subversions, beta and so on... How can I have the most update vegastrike? I am trying Tortoise, but it look like download rather synchronize... I am sure i do something wrong.... thanx. F.

In your first post, how had you downloaded Vega Strike?

Sorry, but I don't understand you when you say "the download was synchronized". Was this inside Tortoise? Which Revision number did it say?

Just making sure, but when you update, you should right click on the whole data4.x folder and go to "SVN Update".

I happened to recognize the error about some files that changed yesterday, so that's why I assumed you were using SVN.

I have downloaded the complete 0.5 version more than 2 months ago... then how can I add all the modified files? If I run SVN over the path where I installed I see that the tortoise say "Failed to add directory... object of the same name exist... " Maybe it's the wrong command (I clicked on the SVN Update as you said), or I have a doubt: SVN just download the entire directories or can it add just the new and modified files? Hope to explain, my english is quite bad...

. Thanx. F.

Tortoise will not be able to update the version you downloaded 2 months ago as it does not have a svn data base so to get the latest you will have to check out data4x as is describe in the Wiki.Once you have it that can be updated as per right-clicking on the top folder (data4x) and SVNUpdate hope this is under clearer if not just post your question and we try to be more clear.

Enjoy the Choice
