How To Access Other Branches/Builds

Hello all,

With the update from v1.51 to v1.55 not being save game compatible we wanted to take a moment to provide simple instructions on how to access either branch of the game at will.  

There are 3 builds of the game:

1. default - The current released build
2. version_1.51 - Version 1.51 for those who want to play older save games.
3. insiders - For those who want to play pre-release updates and help test new features/fixes. These builds eventually become 'default' on release.

How to opt-into a specific build:

On Steam:

• Select "Galactic Civilizations IV: Supernova in your Steam Library list.
  
• Right-click and select Properties.
• Select the BETAS tab.
• From the dropdown, select the desired build and exit the dialog.
• Steam should pull down the changed files; if you ever want to go back, do the same as above but select
  default (or None).
  
  

On Epic For Insider Build:

To enable the patch, please do the following:

• Open the Epic Launcher
• Select "Galactic Civilizations IV: Supernova - Insider's Edition"
• Install and play!

Epic does not currently support old version downloads.

Please note: The opt-in (Insider Build) is an early preview of the next update, and you might experience bugs or other issues.
