How to download?

With Carbonite Maps Module being the MAIN & showing up in the Addon folder as "Carbonite"...

Do you:

A.) download all the *other* modules (Quest, Social, etc.) to the Carbonite folder as 'sub-folders' under Carbonite,

*OR*

B.) download all the other modules to the Addon folder, like you do for any 'new' *separate* addon?

The answer is (B). Curse client does the same.

Curse Client is what CAUSED me to ask my question in the first place... it installed them to the *Carbonite* folder, and all I got on starting game play was a whole herd of errors. Over the last couple of years, a few incidents like this have happened using the Curse Client. I normally manually install, but with several new Carbonite releases (modules, as I now know) I decided to let Curse Client do it on 'auto'. I figured I would just come and read the latest posts here, but found that all of the threads were recently archived, to clean the Forum up for all of the new posts on the new releases. Thought this would be a good 'first question' for many.

Sorry for the delayed response. I'm a Carbonite user so the Devs may correct me if I'm wrong.

Prior to installing the pre-release version from Github I had used Curse to remove the old 5.4 version of Carbonite. I also checked directly to see that all the directories had been removed. Since I started with a pre-release 6.0 install that may be why Curse saw them and laid down the rest correctly. I did have to manually download/install the Warehouse module as it hadn't come up on Curse at the time.

Not sure if your situation is similar. I'd say manually uninstall then try again with Curse. If that doesn't do it then manually uninstall and install 6.0 in the separate folders and Curse should recognize them going forward.

As far as I know, the bulk of the archived threads had to do with the pre-release debug/test or 5.4 and below. The new forum layout was created for the 6.0 release.

Where are you downloading and installing from? The link on the site or from GitHub?

If u use Curse client to download Live version and u did have older version (ie 5.2.5) u have to download all other modules also. Now Carbonite is separated to modules and Curse client when downloading main Carbonites Maps addon will delete all old Carbonite folders. So if u dont download all other Carbonite modules u will have only main Carbonite Maps module.

Since there isn't a separate sub-forum named "Off Topic," or "Miscellaneous, I'll post this here. It can be deleted if it's not relevant.

First, I modified what is shown on Wowinterface's Carbonite addon page. Maybe new users would find it helpful (if it was there instead of the current one)?

Secondly, I'm wondering why Carbonite is using 2 distinctly different logos? Neither of them have a copyright notice ©.
