Okay, everyone, begin chanting....Backup, backup, backup.
We should put this somewhere prominent on the main page IMHO.
My advice is to maintain two "nomimal" eq folders on your hard drive: one for normal EQLive, and one for gotfrags. ALWAYS use eqlive first to see if there is a patch, and ALWAYS backup your gotfrags eq folder before patching that folder:
c:\eq_gf
c:\eq_gf (pre-patch)
Or somesuch. You get the idea. (Or if you're like me and have quit eqlive, you can skip the normal eqlive folder, but you still have to back up your gotfrags folder before patching).
Please be patient. The fact that 0.2.4 isn't out yet hints to me (in two-foot-high letters) that this will be a BIG RELEASE. Just my opinion, I have no inside info. But I think we will all be delighted at what they've put into it once it comes out.
