    1 '''Warning''': The game is currently under heavy development, and many features are currently missing. This release is an '''alpha version''', not a completed playable game - please check our '''[http://www.wildfiregames.com/0ad/ site]''' and '''[http://www.wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?showforum=135 forums]''' for future updates!
     1This page is obsolete, now there are separate pages for each operating system to make it easier for people to find the correct version for the operating system, please see below. '''Please update any pages linking to this with the appropriate operating system specific page, alternatively all pages'''.

    11 The installer includes the full source code. If you want to modify and compile the game yourself, follow the [BuildInstructions#Windows build instructions] using the files from this release instead of downloading from SVN.

    14 
    15 Install from our [https://launchpad.net/~wfg/+archive/0ad PPA]:

    18 sudo apt-get update
    19 sudo apt-get install 0ad

    21 (If you get errors about unmet dependencies, check that you have the Universe repository enabled in `/etc/apt/sources.list`.)
    22 
    23 Run the game from the command-line as
    24 {{{
    25 0ad
    26 }}}
    27 or from the application menu item "Games" / "0 A.D."
    28

    30 
    31 '''Unstable version''': You can try a more up-to-date but less-well-tested version from our [https://launchpad.net/~wfg/+archive/0ad.dev development snapshot PPA], which should be updated each week. Follow the instructions above but use the `ppa:wfg/0ad.dev` repository name.

    106 
    107 You need two files:
    108  * [http://releases.wildfiregames.com/0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-build.tar.xz 0ad-unix-build.tar.xz] (3 MB) ''or'' [http://releases.wildfiregames.com/0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-build.tar.gz 0ad-unix-build.tar.gz] (5 MB)
    109  * [http://releases.wildfiregames.com/0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-data.tar.xz 0ad-unix-data.tar.xz] (99 MB) ''or'' [http://releases.wildfiregames.com/0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-data.tar.gz 0ad-unix-data.tar.gz] (118 MB)
    110 The `.xz` files are smaller but may require you to install [http://tukaani.org/xz/ XZ Utils].
    111 
    112 Extract both files to the same location:
    113 {{{
    114 # Extract .xz version into the current directory:
    115 tar xvJf 0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-build.tar.xz
    116 tar xvJf 0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-data.tar.xz
    117 
    118 # Or, if your tar is older than 1.22:
    119 xz -cd 0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-build.tar.xz | tar xv
    120 xz -cd 0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-data.tar.xz | tar xv
    121 
    122 # Or, if you downloaded the .gz version:
    123 tar xvzf 0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-build.tar.gz
    124 tar xvzf 0ad-r07970-alpha-unix-data.tar.gz
    125 }}}
    126
