How do I bring an addon up to date?

So it is compatible with 1.0?

I was digging around the addons vault today and found the bows/slings one interesting. But after I dropped it in the folder the game tells me it's not compatible.

You'd have to see what changes the addon made to the original files (as they were in the version the addon is for), and then you'd have to transplant them to the current version. You'll have to upgrade the init file as well.

Open up the addon file (assuming it's a .teaa) with a zip program and edit the version = line. For 1.0 it should read:

version = {1,0,0}

This will make the game recognize it as compatible, but won't fix any bugs that might occur because of changes to the game since the addon was released, or update the on-site validation checks that determine if a character is legit or not (for on-line purposes).

Of course it's far easier just to click on the addon in the addon screen to make it "Manual:Active"
