How to play Experimental Builds

[SeVerin]

Greetings medievalists!

We have created an opt-in Experimental Branch for Going Medieval, where you can play a build that includes the latest changes before we update the main branch.

Please note that builds on the Experimental Branch can be buggy and even cause crashes, it may also have a couple of hotfixes before we promote it to the main branch.

We are aware that many Epic Games Store and GOG players are following these updates too, and some Steam players might not have done this before, so below we’ve listed instructions on how to access those branches on each platform.

Prerequisite: You must have Going Medieval in your library for this to work.

On Steam:

1. Open your game library
   
2. Right Click on Going Medieval there
   
3. Open “Properties”
   
4. Go to the “BETAS” tab
   
5. Select “experimental” from the dropdown menu
   
6. You are good to go!

On Epic Games Store:

1. Open your Library
   
2. Locate or search for "Going Medieval Experimental" (it should have its own entry)
   
3. Select 'Install'
   
4. You are good to go!

On GOG:

1. Experimental branch is only accessible by using GOG Galaxy client
   
2. Proceed to the game card for Going Medieval within the GOG Galaxy
   
3. Enter game settings by clicking Settings icon, then selecting Manage
4. Installation→Configure… from the drop-down menu: experimental
   
5. You are good to go!

To return to the main branch, simply select it from the drop down menu mentioned above (Steam and GOG), or play the original install (EGS).

NOTE: You should be able to load your saves from the main branch and continue playing. If you have problems with that please let us know. You should not play saves from the experimental branch on the main one as it can cause various bugs - please avoid doing this.
