#Question of a noob

I did but I don't understand what snapshot means, english actually isn't my primary language
So the term snapshot is unknown to me
I wonder what I did wrong, I downloaded the snapshots and extracted them as instructed in the site, then opened forge again, tried to scan the files from the folder and restart forge but doesn't update it
Am I missing something crucial?

snapshot = current development copy
wild dome
Thanks
leaden spruce
extract it twice
wild dome
I did, I extracted it once just in general not to a spesific place and then in to a forge snapshot folder after that
But it didn't work
leaden spruce
open the extracted folder, it should look like this:
then run forge.exe or forge-adventure.exe

But what do I do about the old forge in my desktop?
Is it safe to delete it now that I have this new version and all the files for it?
And yes I'm a retard I forgot to extract it inside the folder itself 🤣 so all I need to know now is if I can remove the old forge since having 2 would be dumb

In English, a snapshot is a quick picture: freezing a moment into a photograph. For development, it's freezing the current code, whatever its state, into a build that you distribute. Hopefully I made that understandable enough for you!

🤷 maybe for keepsake i guess

@formal quail Thank you so much, I really appreciate you spending your time just to clear it up for me, you explained it well

It's better not to mix snapshot and release version
leaden spruce
Extracting it in the same folder
