```

To install the server run following command in the directory where you checked this git into
```
./install-xash3ds.sh server install [Version]
```

To install the FULL PLAYABLE client with all game data (steamcmd thx <3) run this
```
./install-xash3ds.sh client install [Version]
```

Your server or gamefiles (you can run server first and then rerun afterwards with client to get the full package) are in
```
/path/to/repo/xash3ds-installscript/build/result
```

from there you can run the server 
```
./start.sh
```

or the game to have a frag
```
./xash3d
```

You can easly update both, client and server (example client):
```
./install-xash3d.sh client update [Version]
```

Have a look on my servers at https://HL.LA10CY.NET :) Happy fragging!
