How to Update Advanced GAM to GAM7
This example assumes that GAMADV-XTD3 was installed in /Users/admin/bin/gamadv-xtd3. If GAMADV-XTD3 was installed in another directory, substitute that value in the directions.
Rename install directory.
mv /Users/admin/bin/gamadv-xtd3 /Users/admin/bin/gam7
You can download and install the current GAM7 release from the GitHub Releases page. Choose one of the following:
- Executable Archive, Automatic, Linux/Mac OS/Google Cloud Shell/Raspberry Pi/ChromeOS
- Start a terminal session and execute one of the following commands:
- Update to latest version, do not create project or authorizations, default path
$HOME/bin
bash <(curl -s -S -L https://git.io/gam-install) -l
- Update to latest version, do not create project or authorizations, specify a path
bash <(curl -s -S -L https://git.io/gam-install) -l -d <Path>
In these examples, the user home folder is shown as /Users/admin; adjust according to your specific situation; e.g., /home/administrator.
You should set an alias to point to /Users/admin/bin/gam/gam so you can operate from the /Users/admin/GAMWork directory. Aliases aren't available in scripts, so you may want to set a symlink instead, see below.
Change the following line:
alias gam="/Users/admin/bin/gamadv-xtd3/gam"
to
alias gam="/Users/admin/bin/gam7/gam"
in one of these files based on your shell:
~/.bash_aliases
~/.bash_profile
~/.bashrc
~/.zshrc
~/.profile
Issue the following command replacing <Filename>
with the name of the file you edited:
source <Filename>
Set a symlink in /usr/local/bin
(or some other location on $PATH) to point to GAM.
ln -s "/Users/admin/bin/gam7/gam" /usr/local/bin/gam
gam version
You can download and install the current GAM7 release from the GitHub Releases page.
This example assumes that GAMADV-XTD3 was installed in C:\GAMADV-XTD3. If GAMADV-XTD3 was installed in another directory, substitute that value in the directions.
These steps assume Command Prompt, adjust if you're using PowerShell.
Rename install directory.
ren C:\GAMADV-STD3 C:\GAM7
-
Executable Archive, Manual, Windows 64 bit
gam-7.wx.yz-windows-x86_64.zip
- Download the archive, extract the contents into C:\GAM7.
- Start a Command Prompt/PowerShell session.
-
Executable Installer, Manual, Windows 64 bit
gam-7.wx.yz-windows-x86_64.msi
- Download the installer and run it.
- Start a Command Prompt/PowerShell session.
You should set the system path to point to C:\GAM7 so you can operate from the C:\GAMWork directory.
Start Control Panel
Click System
Click Advanced system settings
Click Environment Variables...
Click Path under System variables
Click Edit...
If you have an existing entry referencing GAMADV-XTD3:
Click that entry
Click Delete
If C:\GAM7 is already on the Path, skip the next three steps
Click New
Enter C:\GAM7
Click OK
Click OK
Click OK
Exit Control Panel
At this point, you should restart Command Prompt so that it has the updated path and environment variables.
