please no more "test" versions on filesharing sites

Does anyone know how to make
http://springfiles.com/spring/games/xta to always point to latest XTA version? It seems to have correctly copied over the version history but points to 9.66 which is very old...

I'm not a gynecologist, but I tried to have a look. I think that that page can only be edited by Noruas.

fyi: xta should work now on rapid...

"pr-downloader xta:test" should grab the latest test version / autohosts should be able to use that tag, too.

Oil... Finally. Last time I tried to play xta I gave up in frustration because of the terrible versioning scheme and the fact that even seasoned xta players had no idea where to DL it.

Thanks for this information, I only understand you have to use command line for rapid and not lobby. But the rapid option to set path doesn't work:

How do you force rapid to stay the hell out of my documents path. Currently I have to delete the fodler it creates there every time I use something connected to rapid.
