Please follow this HOW-TO step-by-step.
If something not working correct, join the IRC and feel free to ask .

¿Why you made this HOW-TO?
⇒ To share an easy way to update your MAXR-version, because the hardcore-gaming-folks that's waiting in the IRC for others to play, are normally using developing versions of MAXR. In addition we play with all included advantages and disadvantages of this versions, to support the developers to find *new* bugs .

Latest MAXR-SVN

You need:

• internet access to download (if you can read this, you should have access ).

You get:

• latest MAXR-SVN installation that's normally works fine…

So let's start:

1. Download the newest SVN, that is available on the Snapshots-Page
   
   • There are versions for Windows and Linux,
   • Latest file include .latest.,
   • so pick out what you need
2. Extract the archive to the destination you want
3. You can run maxr.exe out of the unzipped archive now.
4. Enjoy!

Old 'look and feel':

It's just additionally for all, that's like the old style.
You need:

• Original install CD or installed MAX.
• (Visual-)Resinstaller.

You get:

• the old 'look and feel'.

Attention: I just can describe the way for windows users!
(maybe someone with another OS can do this for 'his' OS too )

For windows-OS:

1. get the Resinstaller
   
   • the resinstaller is included in the maxr install-exe (at least in 0.2.7.-install-exe).
   • download this exe from the Download-page.
   • install it
2. use the Resinstaller (different possibilities)
   
   1. for a generally HOW-TO read the resinstaller about.
   2. additionally i made a bat-file and attached it to this posting.
      
      • this bat is made for all people, that's won't configure (visuall-)resinstaller every time they need it. So feel free to use.
      • read the bat before you use it!
      • YOU have to configure it!
      • to edit the bat, open it with a text-editor (NO word or open-office!) something like notepad or any Competing software of notepad such as notepad++ (npp),…

Attention:
the bat isn't an 'official' file from this project it's from me — so ask me if you have problem with it

Hi,
if you need some information about how to setup your router, you should read »Can YOU Host ?!« (started by RonCon).
Please note, there are many different router available, so a setup is more a process of try and error . Furthermore you are welcome in the IRC to find a solution for you, too.
