The
SpiritWars installation program is a single-file self-extracting install
program. It will uncompress the files and install a playable version of
SpiritWars on your hard drive. The installation program installs the game
into
a directory of your choosing.
There is no backward compatibility between versions of SpiritWars. All
players must always be using the most current version of the game.
When you connect to the SpiritWars server, playing either the
free or member version of the game, your game program and the server will validate the build number of the version
of the game program you are using. If that build number does not match the version
currently recognized by the server, you will receive a message explaining that you are not
using the current version and the file update system will update the game
files on your computer.
Any players having problems getting updated should check both the
SpiritWars News page and the Download Menu page for possible announcements
about known problems and alternative options for updating your SpiritWars
installation.
