So the how to install for pregmod says that i need Git is there a another way to install it without Git?
The only program you need is a browser, google "pregmod gitgud" then go to deployments > releases < download the latest version ( currently it's 4.0.0 alpha 17). > extract the zip file and launch the game.
While the releases are nice. they are not the most up to date. last release is from 2 months ago. but in the last day alone there have been 9 commits.
which is why I self compile. it is really easy with the right instructions
Assuming windows:
step 1: install tortoisegit
step 2: in gitgud repo, select clone repository and copy the url
step 3: in free cities folder. create a new folder called git. right click on it and select "git clone" from the context menu. it should have automatically copied the url. click ok.
step 4: go inside git folder. right click on fc-pregmod and select tortoise git > pull. this updates the source to latest version
step 5: enter fc-pregmod directory and double click on "compile.bat" file. wait a few minutes for it to finish
step 6: enter the subdirectory /git/fc-pregmod/bin/ where you will find "FC_pregmod.html". cut and paste it back to your main free cities directory. you run the game by double clicking this html file
Steps 1,2,3 only need to be done the first time you do it.
Step 4 can be skipped the first time, but needs to be redone on future times.
Anyways. the above get you the most up to date version.
