Nightly Builds: http://wc-ng.sauerworld.org/builds/nightly/b/list

• Client:

  • Windows:
    • Installation on Windows is quite easy, all you have to do is to run the installer.
    • You don't need to backup anything, as the installer won't replace your original
      client. You can run both, the original and our client at the same time.
    • The installer attempts to find the installation path automatically, if it fails
      (e.g. your sauer comes from svn, then point it to your sauerbraten installation path).
    • Once installing is done, you'll have new shortcuts on your desktop and startmenu.
    • Start the client by clicking on the "Sauerbraten_wc" shortcut.
  • Linux:
    • Open your preferred file manager (e.g. konqueror, dolphin, nautilus, etc.)
      or terminal and browse to ~/.sauerbraten.
    • Copy the doc, data, packages and plugins folders into the previous opened dir.
    • Browse to the location of the original sauerbraten binary
      (e.g. /usr/lib/games/sauerbraten/).
    • Rename the binary to sauerbraten_orig and copy the wc executeable into this dir.
  • OS X:
    • Open another finder window, go to your home folder and then browse to
      Library / Application Support / sauerbraten.
    • Copy the doc, data, packages and plugins folders from the opened wc.dmg into the
      previous opened dir.
    • Browse to the location of the original sauerbraten package, right click it,
      choose "Show Package Contents" and browse to contents / MacOS.
    • Rename (backup) the original file sauerbraten_u (OS X 10.6+) or sauerbraten_c (OS X 10.5)
      to sauerbraten_orig and the wclient executeable from the opened wc.dmg into this dir.
    • Now rename it to either sauerbraten_u (OS X 10.6+) or sauerbraten_c (OS X 10.5).

• Menu:

  • Windows:
    • Open Windows Explorer and navigate to
      C:\Users<your username>\Documents\My Games\Sauerbraten or
      startmenu->documents->My Games->Sauerbraten.
    • Copy the content of the zip archive into this directory.
    • Add exec config/main.cfg to your autoexec.cfg (create it, if it doesn't exit)
  • Linux:
    • Open your preferred file manager (e.g. konqueror, dolphin, nautilus, etc.)
      or terminal and browse to ~/.sauerbraten.
    • Copy the content of the zip archive into this directory.
    • Add exec config/main.cfg to your autoexec.cfg (create it, if it doesn't exit).
