Congrats, you now have SVN installed an can keep up to date with the latest SRL releases!

Now go on to Step 2 Also, please post a quick thank you along with any recommendations you may have. Thanks!


For those who were wondering, SVN is a very convenient way to keep a group of files up to date. It's very helpful when you have large amounts of people who need to keep up to date with the latest versions of the files. This makes it great for SRL, as it allows you to upgrade with only a click of a button, unlike previous versions where you had to download, unrar, and configure each version separately. SVN also helps the admins and devs save time; it can be updated and distributed very easily, which allows them to quickly release updates to fix any problems that should appear.

Detailed - I think even the dumbest of people could download it using this link.

I think that if they can't download Subversion, they shouldn't be using SCAR… I did make that tut on how to download SRL 4 Beta, though, so I shouldn't be saying anything ;)

I wouldn't have posted this if I'd known that Darky made a tut for this + more.

Just saw a few people having trouble getting SVN set up, so I figured I may as well make a quick pictut for it :p

smartz in my post i linked this and said it was more detailed on installing SVN.

:p your welcome XD

maybe you should link to mine so they can continue the setup?

So true…

your the best.

Lol this tutorial was actually some use. The first time I downloaded the subversion, the install file didn't work and I just got all the files but it didn't install properly. Somehow this worked so thanks.

ok i did all this and then when i go into SCAR and dl from repository then click checkout the DOS comes up and then it waits awhile then goes away nothing happens

Thankyou very much! This helped me sooo much! I was trying to explain this to a friend through IM but this helped a lot! He still hasn't done it though, I asked him if he had and he said yes. Then I asked a bit later once a script didn't work and he said he hadn't done it.
This is going to take a while =\ Oh well. Thx again

You are a life saver this was my first time using svn and had no idea what to do!

thanks a lot, much more clear than other guides.

i still dont understand tho, what is svn? how does it contain srl 4 rev 7? it looks to me like its just some program made my a different company that has nothing to do with srl. i just dont understand

good stuff im not getting lost :D

thanks i also use SVN for garrys mod :)

Hey. For some reason I never get the Install thing to come out. i downloaded the stuff. The folder is full of files and I see a file that says 'Install' but when I click on it it asks me to use which program to open it with? I dont know how to get that to work. Any ideas?

on the third screen shot that you posted…i get past it to go to the next one? do I click "next" or "cancel"?

Thank you so much for posting this, I finally figured it out :)

I know SVN is good to keep your stuff updated but do bear in mind it's an explorer shell addon which does slow down your system.

Thx, I was a bit lost untill i read this one. Peace
