good idea to start this thread. i had v2, and didn't realize there was even a 4 until i saw it somewhere here.
how exciting though, to have the game and then have the updates every few days like this!!! i feel like we're getting a chance to see something most people that eventually get the game won't.

No Sweetie, I only restore those that I've made mods to...just in case there's image changes in the newer versions. I installed it twice just to make sure it installed right, and had the same problem both times. I'd sure love to be able to use the newer version. As it is I had to go back to version .02. I read that there was a version .03, but not until it was already replaced with the .04 version.

Sorry too about not getting my mods uploaded yet. I was without internet most of yesterday evening, and it's been in and out all day today. As soon as Windstream gets it fixed I'll upload for whoever may want them.

It'd really be nice if a newsletter or something were sent out to let us know...or at least it would be posted on the download page.

I agree that there should be an easier way for us mac users to get an update

I do in a way agree that posting the version number here is a good idea. after all during the soft launch it can only help LDW make the game that much better by finding all those tricky bugs.

I think it's great that they offer us the soft launch to be able to buy the game directly too. Even though the Amount of coding knowledge that I have would leave plenty of room on the head of a pin, I do know that it is very intensive (and in some cases frustrating) that the goal is to get everything working seamlessly so we can enjoy the game.

And for all the hard work that takes I think everyone at LDW deserves our Thanks! Besides with this thread we can keep track for ourselves for now *winks*

How do i get the updated version of VF? I purchased mine on the day of release. Please help.

just go to the page you purchased it and download the try it now. it will install the newest version. in your menu it will show 1.00.04 The download will show 1.00 because it only shows the first 3 numbers.

Please see this thread for an answer on how to update your Virtual Families game.

oh i got it. i just downloaded the trial version and now its working fine.
