Q. After updating to 1.1 I get strange error dialogs saying things like "Entry point Param::GetDouble(@Aw) could not be found in mojo.dll"
A. Check that you don't still have the 1.0 latitude plugin in the plugins folder. This plugin won't work with 1.1, and isn't needed as the latitude node is now part of the base MojoWorld install. Just delete the latitude.dll file from the plugins folder.
Q. I changed the default planet file (default.mjw) in the mojodata folder, and now I get an error message trying to update to 1.1
A. We improved the default planet, so the original one needs to be there to complete the update. The easiest thing to do is to copy the original default planet back from the Uncompressed folder on the 1.02 CD, and then to the update. You can always put your favourite default planet back after the update.
