AGS stable version confused

[rock_chick]

I was told there was now a new, stable(I think they meant stable anyway) of AGS that followed on from 3.0 but the download page still has 3.0 has the most recent one, so were they incorrect?

3.0.1 Final - Tibet edition

Somebody probably just forgot to update it. Keep your hat on.

Okay, I've downloaded it, thanks for the location.
Why is it called the Tibet Edition? Is it a reference to the Olympics Games this year in China and a lot of the uproar about China hosting the games because of how they control Tibet?

CJ names the versions after current events. It doesn't mean anything. It is not an official release yet until the main page is updated. However, it will be the official release if no-one finds any bugs in the next few days.

Well then I guess he did name it for a similar reason at least because Tibet currently mainly seems to be a current event feature for the reason I mention or is there another reason?

So until he places it on the download page it's technically still a beta as such? Well then I'll wait until he does so before I start using it and if it does have bugs, then download it again when it's finally on the download page.

Right, so unless you're too excited to try it out, the official version is still V3.00.
Also, since it's not the real official release yet, V3.01 is only distributed as a ZIP file instead of an executable, that means it will miss a proper installation programme (which might be needed for those unfortunate Vista users) and probably even miss some other important files, so you still need to have a copy of V3.00 installed and have the files in the ZIP copied over it.
