Why not use the CO8 mod the first time through?

    Well in their defense, they probably aren't supporting the game anymore (besides hosting the patches).

    Between work, 3D modeling and my other games I don't think I'll ever find the time to play an RPG of this length a second time. I wanted to go all out with enhancements, fixes and added content so I headed straight to the latest Co8.

    This sounds convincing. What version do you people advice me to install?
    Co8 v5.5.0 BETA (I don't like the idea of "beta")
    Co8 v5.0.0 (is this the latest final mod/patch?)
    co8 v4.0.1 perhaps?
    Other?

    Wait a couple days for the latest - 5.9.3. Generally, always go with the latest for the best stability and largest number of bugfixes.

    v5.0.0 are 4.0.1 are old and outdated, so I wouldn't choose them unless you're looking to capture that particular state of development for some reason.

    Beta means only that it's technically a 'testing' release. The betas are functionally identical to any other and are in fact quite a bit more stable as you go up in number. 6.0.0, due at the end of December, will not be a beta.

    Cool. Will v5.9.3 be on SP's ToEE "Co8"-section or should I DL it from another site? The latest on SP is v5.5.0, afaik...

    Thanks Gaear! Awesome! I think I'll play and test this game a little and restart once I installed v5.9.3.

    -Edit-
    Snipped a question and sent it as PM.
