Updates
A quick note on updates. You should only be running the updates that sit between your current version and the version you are upgrading to.
For example, if you install 3.0 you should run the 3.0 updater only (and even this is only because we have accidentally left some 3.0 fixes out of the installer).
Warning
You absolutely, categorically, should not be running all the updaters for a new installation. This is just bad. Linux compatability was not available for versions prior to v2 of FarCry. Hence the issues with the updaters.
Updaters are just for "updating" – moving you from one version to the next.
Anyway.. I know this isn't all that clear in the installer/updater and it needs work but hopefully this will help someone.
