The experimentals aren’t nearly as unstable as the name suggests, you should give them a spin! (Having autosave on is recommended, though. Just as a precaution.)

You can get them from [the main site](http://en.cataclysmdda.com/), in the right sidebar.

Clicking one of those will take you to a download page, just pick one of the links and it’ll download the experimental.

If you can, you should also dropbox a copy of base 0.C here. StopSignal just asked me for a copy, and it would save me some time finding it.

I’ve been running an experimental from about 6 months ago, right after they implemented (working) magazines, and I’ve been modding my own weapons, armor, and professions in the json… very fun, very easy. All you need is Notepad++ and a little bit of time. Copy and paste an item/gun with similar stats and then tweak what you want to change about it, save, and you’re good to go. Just make sure you are being really careful about the punctuation/spacing in Notepad++.

Clear the cataclysm-0.C/save directory and try zipping it again. If it’s still too large then delete all the directories in the base-directory except data, lang and lua; the game only needs those directories for running it. Zip it again and it shouldn’t be \>15M.

Might I suggest an actual Json editor? I use JSON edit, it’s free, has no issues, is open source, and much nicer than notepad++. Been using it for about a year and a half now.
