Aesir Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I know where in my steam games library to get to the experimental update in order to dl it; but I've never done it before. I've only gotten updates for games when I either notice they are queued up or upon launching the game. My question is this. Are there any additional things I should do when manually opting in for an update, or is the process the same at that stage? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyStar Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 1) Open Steam 2) Go to Library 3) Right click on 7DTD 4) Choose options 5) Betas [right now 17e doesn't show up yet but it will] 6) Profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesir Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 Great. Thanks Lucky. That's what I was hoping for. No additional steps between five and six. Yeah, I checked a little bit ago. I don't expect it to be available for another four or five hours at the earliest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eguzky Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 So I need to opt-in to this beta? Here's hoping it updates in time for my stream tonight (Roughly 6 hours from now). Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed! Yes you'll need to opt in to the experimental. The update won't be automatic until A17 goes stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halz Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Any idea if games with a17e will be compatible with a17 (stable)? What were the experiences with last updates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eguzky Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Yes you'll need to opt in to the experimental. The update won't be automatic until A17 goes stable. Thanks. I keep checking the betas tab every 30 minutes. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's best to just assume that if you're playing 17e your saves will get wiped every few days or so. The same would probably be true going from the experimental to the stable version. At least that's what I'm planning on happening to my saves. I'm not sure about the other Alphas. All my 600 - 700 hours have been in A16.4(b8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
