Does the new GG not use bin files anymore? I have been testing and changing some models since the new install and noticed I only have dbo files to delete. Is this normal now?

And you haven't had to delete dbo files for some time now GG automatically updates these according to the timestamp when changes are made to the .x model You still need to restart all the same but don't need to hunt them down and delete them manually.

Thanks for the info guys. I knew the dbo files are supposed to update by themselves but it's hard to break years of habitual deletion of those files. It's kinda second nature to me so I still delete them without even thinking about it. Only with the new upgrade did I notice the bins are gone.
