Cannot see some downloaded games in Spring browser--why?
Okay--so I'm having a TON of fun with Spring--but I'm a newbie to both it and Linux, so it could be that I just hit a wrong button. I'm probably doing what a lot of you did when you were new Going on a Spring binge and just downloading anything and everything I can. Naturally--not everything works. I'm sure I'll be back with other problems, but the first one that I'm asking about today is in the subject line. Specifically, Star Wars (downloaded from SpringFiles--apparently it's not Imperial Winter), TA: World Domination, Universal Annihilation, and War Evolution are not showing up in the Spring games selector. Is there a reason for this? Thanks in advance for all your help, guys.

those 3 projects have been long dead and are not in the rapid system because they are unmaintained and they no longer work so they have not been moved there.

Ahh! Well, too bad about their untimely cessation, but I'm glad the "fix", such as it is, was so simple. Thanks!

bear in mind starwars is what later became known as imperial winter, you have lost nothing in getting that one instead.

Oh hey, okay--didn't know that--thought they were two different games. I'll keep an eye on Imperial Winter then, and maybe try to get a shot at the beta
