====== Crossfire Windows Server Install HOWTO ======

FIXME - Upload screen shots, update text with proper URLs

===== Python v2.5.1 =====

First, we need to install Python v2.5.1 - this is a scripting language that i used by the server for such things as the Post Office and Message Boards.

  - Click here to begin the install process of Python v2.5.1
  - The initial setup screen should appear, select Install for all users and click on Next
  - When asked on a Destination Directory, stay with the default (C:\Python25\) unless you have a reason to use a different directory, click on Next
  - On the Customize screen, stay with with default options, click on Next
  - Wait for Python to finish installing, like the screen says - this could take several minutes
  - Python has now finished installing, click on Finish
  - Restart your computer to complete the install and setup process

===== Crossfire Maps v1.11.0 =====

The map set is a separate file and is required installation in order to play Crossfire.

  - Click here to begin the install process of Crossfire Maps
  - Click Next in the Install Wizard
  - Read through the License agreement, and if you accept, click on I Agree
  - Chose which components to install - it is recommend to use the defaults (Unlinked maps, Test Maps and Python Scripts) and click Next
  - Use the default install destination directory (C:\Program Files\Crossfire Server) - the rest of the instructions assume you're going to do this - click Install
  - Wait for the maps to install - this could take several minutes - click on Next
  - The maps are now installed, click on Finish

===== Crossfire Server v1.11.0 =====

Now we are going to install the server - which is also a required component for playing Crossfire. The server is installed last so that it will automatically detect the installation of the map files and Python - which will streamline the install process.

  - Click here to begin the install process of Crossfire Server
  - Click Next in the Install Wizard
  - Read through the License agreement, and if you accept, click on I Agree
  - Chose which components to install - it is recommend to use the defaults (Python plugin and Menu Shortcuts) and click Next
  - Use the default install destination directory (C:\Program Files\Crossfire Server) - the rest of the instructions assume you're going to do this - click Install
  - Wait for the install to finish, it may take a couple of minutes
  - You should now see a prompt (Register Crossfire server as a Windows service?) - click Yes
  - Click on Finish
