We are happy to announce the first release of WC (Wahn/Wonder Client) and the ogros menu!
After a long long time of development and months of waiting...it's finally there!
If you find bugs or something doesn't work as it's supposed to be, then please tell us.

Download:
Client (r931 / 2013-09-30):
- Windows: installer (contains both, 32 and 64 bit binaries)
- Linux*: 32bit, 64bit (old libc**: 32bit, 64bit)
- OS X: 32 and 64bit (10.5+)
otherwise you'll be missing quite a lot things!
* If you don't know what package to get, then type "uname -m" into your favored terminal.
If the output is i686 then get the 32bit package, if it is x86_64, then get the 64bit one.
** If you don't know if you should get the normal package or the old libc one, then try
the normal one first. If your client doesn't startup due to unresolved libc symbols,
then you should get the old libc client. If you are an experienced user:
Check your (e)glibc version, if it is below 2.14 then you'll need to get the old libc version.

Installation:
- Client:

Windows:
-
Installation on Windows is quite easy, all you have to do is to run the installer.
You don't need to backup anything, as the installer won't replace your original
client. You can run both, the original and our client at the same time.
The installer attempts to find the installation path automaticly, if it fails (e.g:
your sauer comes from svn, then point it to your sauerbraten installation path).
Once installing is done, you'll have new shortcuts on your desktop and startmenu.
Start the client by clicking on the "Sauerbraten_wc" shortcut.
