Also, i have just upgraded from the first release to this one, and now every time i access vbioptions i get this message

Fatal error: Failed opening required './global.core' (include_path='/usr/lib/php:.') in /absolute path to forums/BVE/forums/admincp/vbioptions.php

I did that too, the new header template removes them anyways, so all i did was rename the old header, then replace it with the new one which is prefixed with _RC2 at the end. The upgrade went fine with me from start to finish, so i don't think it could be that, might be wrong tho

Missing file added, problem with vbioptions.php fixed.

Error with the templates importing has been changed, however there is a posibility you may lose customisations to vBindex templates only.

Only changes where vbioptions.php (fixed a minor bug), eventcache.php was missing, so upload that one and vbifunctions_upgrade.php which is the one that caused you problems with the install. Just upload those 3 and overwrite where needed.
