On the vB4 info it says disable mods then go to install/upgrade.php
Doesn't say to upload any files.. is this true, does vB4.x upload them for you or..!?

Or is it just a no brainer.? (hard to believe thats true. lol)

Upgrading from vBulletin 4.x.x

Close your board via the Admin Control Panel.

Open your browser and point the URL to http://www.example.com/forum/install/upgrade.php (where www.example.com/forums/ is the URL of your vBulletin). You should now be automatically forwarded to the appropriate upgrade script and step.

If any errors occur, copy the error and please contact support. DO NOT continue with the upgrade. Doing so may cause irreversible damage to the database.

Follow the instructions on the screen. Make sure you click next step or proceed until you are redirected to your Admin Control Panel. Here, you can reopen your board.

Upload the vBulletin files to your FTP then open your web browser and go to http://yoururl.com/forum/install/upgrade.php

Or are you saying it is somewhere else outside of the directions "if you are Upgrading from 4.x"
Because if it is outside, then step 1 should be "read somewhere else". lol

Or i just missed it. :D
