HOW TO RELEASE AN UPDATE (31-10-2007) 1. Place the update in this directory. The client downloads the updates from here using the address updates.themanaworld.org. 2. Run the following command to add the update to the end of the list of updates the client will download: adler32 myupdate.zip >> resources2.txt 3. Open up resources2.txt to check the file was added correctly at the bottom. Optionally reorder the updates as necessary or remove obsolete ones. The client loads data from the updates by searching them last to first, so any file that is in multiple updates is loaded from the last one on the list. You can use analyze.php for checking obsoleteness. 4. Check that the client is loading the update correctly and that it works. Don't forget to check with the latest supported release as well as with the latest development client. WARNING: When something went wrong and you're fixing an update, note that as of version 0.0.23, the client is NOT checking updates that it already downloaded against their adler32 checksum. Always pick a new name when replacing or fixing an older update! 5. If you removed any obsolete updates from the list in step 3, move the relates files to the 'old' folder to keep down the mess.
