The reality is that vanilla FarCry updates are pretty seamless. You will need to go: 4 -> 5.0 -> 5.1 -> 5.2 -> 6.0 -> 6.1 -> 6.2 You may get away with skipping some steps. Easiest way to do it is set up Subversion for your `core` and just switch to each relevant tagged build, restart the application, check COAPI tools for potential schema changes to deploy and switch again. Make sure you don't have a server request timeout in place that might truncate a longer running update process. Unfortunately, if you have a lot of customisations then you may have a more bumpy ride. It really depends on the nature of those changes. For example, 4.x supports older, deprecated formats for 3.x edit handlers -- later versions of FarCry do not. If you still have old 3.x wizards etc, you will need to replace these completely. Do you have much in your ./myproject/packages/types folder?
