Gapps update

Hello,
I am using Cynogenmod 10 and I recently downloaded the newest Gapps to update my existing ones. My question is:
Can I just flash the newest Gapps? If not, what would the process be?
Thank you very much!

I believe you just have to delete cache and wipe dalvik and install the new gapps.
Make sure Gapps is for JB 4.1.2 and not 4.2.1. CM10 is still on 4.1.2. unless you are running the unofficial 10.1 rom.
Edit** 10.1 Nightlies are now rolling out. So flash 4.2 Gapps if you are planning on running it

As you requested, this is the latest available nightly on BasketBuild. Nightlies aren't stable (especially for PACman) so actually you shouldn't want them at all.
And you have hours of patience waiting for a spoon-fed answer but don't have the 10-minute patience searching for the links in the Dev subforum? Come on man, this is XDA - help yourself next time

My phone isn't able to flash the ROM. Do I need to do a factory reset then flash?

1) You have a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP), right? Stock recovery doesn't flash custom ROMs.
2) What error does it give? Details needed.

And to add to that, make a back up in cwm/twrp, then wipe, then flash rom+gapps. The latest nightly of pacman was uploaded to the pacman site last night and appears to be running really well compared to the 10/7 release. It is also android 4.3.1
It tries to flash the rom then it just stops in the first half second of the flash and says error.

It depends on the ROM you are trying to install.
Most ROMs will have specified in their post which firmware (4.1.2 or 4.2.2) they are using. You need to upgrade or downgrade according to that if you want to install that ROM.
Currently we have a lot of CM10.1 based ROMs like SlimBean, PACMAN, AOKP, Resurrection, CM10.1.3 etc, all of these are based on 4.1.2 so for using any of these you need to downgrade to 4.1.2 before you install them. We also have "GENNXT Superior ROM" which is based on 4.2.2, so you need to be on one of the 4.2.2 firmwares to install it.
Just read the instructions by the ROM dev in the first post of the ROM and you'll know if you need to be on 4.2.2 or 4.1.2 to use it.
Thnxx a lot biddy...
