			Hi,
When I finished installing the game, it asked me if I wanted to delete old .pk3 files from (home something-something?). I pressed no. What does this mean?
Also, I noticed that (on Windows), I couldn't view the installer when some of the pak.pk3 files were being downloaded. I think this was a bug.

			It means to delete outdated vms files, which could potentially cause the game to crash.

			Yes, it is a good idea to clear out outdated files.

			vms-{version}.pk3, where version is any version older than the current version. There are only old files if we release a hotfix update in the middle of the month to fix critical or blatant bugs.

			Ahh, well I've only got vms-0.6.0.pk3 so I should be alright. :D
EDIT: Talk about speedy development! Already v0.7? Wow...

			Just telling you, but the alpha 7 the installer didn't delete the old vms for me when is taated to do so. I'll manually delete this later anyway.

			It only deletes them in fs_homepath. Those are in fs_basepath don't do any harm as long as you have the latest vms there as well.
