filenames...

why don't you name the files like "deathball17.u"? With the same filename, I cannot test a beta and have the latest stable version installed at the same time. It worked well with RocketArena so why don't you give it a try @ Deathball?

just replace deathball.u, you dont have to reinstall the game :|

lol I know that I don't have to reinstall, but I have to switch the deathball.u file. Ok it's not that much work, but you could make it more comfortable...

you would need a separate int file too. and all the updated texture packages/maps etc would have to have different filenames too.

not much of a problem if u ask me

just put in the deathball(version)u.zip deathball(version).u and deathball(version).int with the db package pointing to deathball(version).u

all u gotta do for the map(s) is DB-MapNameBeta or something.

it would easily work with little or no effort at all
