New beta version of Bet Angel v1.63.0 beta1

...thank you BA and Memphis for those posts/replies - I'll take as good look at those solutions

I know how to get videos noticed, but that involves going down BS clickbait route, which I note others have done. But I don't want to do that. Feels like selling your soul.

I'll have to strike a balance: realise videos won't get many views on YT, but use it to add longer, more relevant details on the Academy. That's what I've settled on.

I do sympathise Peter ... as a pure training instrument they can go in the Academy but to get a bit of advertising from them they need to be in Youtube. I find it amazing that Youtube always treats me as an idiot (no comments please! ) by suggesting I watch videos on how to power my car on a pint of water or link a generator to an electric motor and have the generator produce the electricity to power the motor to power the generator to power your house!!! But please whatever the solution you decide upon do not sell your reputation to the Youtube algorithm.

Video isn't the optimal format for education; good old-fashioned written content is usually best.

But of course no-one would go looking for it, so YT wins out because that's where the music, gaming and funny animals are. 58 million views for a horse farting - that's where the real action is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCzwyFHSMdY

Well I guess it's horses for courses weemac ... I definitely find video my optimal format and written content the most difficult.

Thanks for the tip!

Excuse the simple question as this will be my first upgrade attempt. Do I just run the installer and it will retain the couple of files I have previously downloaded or do I need to install them from scratch? I'd rather ask before I attempt to update. Thanks

Just run the installer and everything is there. No harm in backing up your Bet Angel folder beforehand though just in case.

Thank you James I will look to where my bet angel folder is too (hoping I saved my baf / bat files? in there too in an organised manner!). Thanks!
