After installing, get some games (if you already haven't done so) from here:
http://spring.jobjol.nl/subcategory.php?id=1

You might need this, to play TA-related mods:
http://spring.jobjol.nl/show_file.php?id=860

Place it in 'C:\Program Files\Spring\base', assuming you didn't change anything when installing.

If you're looking to play something like TA, get either CA or BA, as those are the most played right now.

Latest version of BA: http://spring.jobjol.nl/show_file.php?id=1113
(Currently most played mod, easy to get ingame.)
Latest version of CA: http://trac.caspring.org/wiki/sd
(Also comes with auto map downloader for your games.)
Just to get BasiC happy, here's SA:
http://spring.jobjol.nl/show_file.php?id=1334
(Although not played much.)

Although you might be here to play something similar to TA, I recommend checking out the other games.

After all that crap, start up TASClient, go to Options, click Account and register. Login and you should see some rooms in the bottom.

Can´t somebody else post another monstrous link collection...

What a luck we don´t have a oversized All-Inclusive-Allready-to-play-Version, just imagine this Guy is one of hundred who asks, while the other hundred, after some bored attempts simply leaf... wish we had tasclientdownloadsstat compared with newjoined Players per Month...

I would like to see the Gap..

The reason why Spring fails.

You ask something to experinced players who think they know everything about spring, and you end up with the reply, "go look at the manual you nub"

Main reason why we have such a small dev community and fourm users.

Also, Tribulex trolls about the other 50% of the players who stay.

Spawn, I think dragon has a stronger troll-fu. You missed the heyday of the smugs.

I think the reason the "experienced" players are saying read the manual you noob is because they have explained things over and over. They get tired of explaining things over and over. Those experienced players should write some guides in the wiki so the noobs can read them. Of course I am not talking about play guides because if someone of day/randy's level posted a guide you would probably see >9000 people regurgitating that same strat and crying when one of the *As breaks their supposedly awesome strat.

i rezzed it because i thought that my reply made a point, just because a thread might be a month or two old doesnt mean it CAN'T be replied

Also, Dragon didnt post here, which is why i didnt comment on him.

lastly, everyones a noob at one point, if you want people to stay, your going to have to learn that even if you've replied over 9000 to one question, someone new won't always use the search engine, or the wiki page to find this question, and its your duty to answer it, and then guide them. Because players are looking for active, helpfull games, and not grumpy old players.

Replace duty with kind gesture and realize that no one has to answer at all. Player are not always looking for helpful games. Many of them just want to try things out for a while and not get bossed around. Others think they know what they are doing a get defensive when told how to play.

you cannot expect the experienced players to be immune to annoyance. People do not have infinite patience, they only want to help so much and it shouldn't be expected that they do. We had a lengthy discussion a few months ago about noob players and their lack of ability to listen. It is a moment's kindness, not a duty required of all spring players.
