    The authors of 1.03, shipped the new stats with a bat swapper that allowed selecting either official 1.01, official beta 1.02 or fanmade 1.03. There were 3 different flavours of this distribution: exe, self-extracting zip and zip. They also contained the required DLL to allow running in XP.

    Problem with the zip version, is that Microsoft has a logic differing from other toolsmiths. Extrating the zip to the root STW folder worked fine for all known zip tools, except XP's built in one. XP zip adds another directory which has the same name as the zip file, and puts the zip content in there. The swapper quits working then, and as none of us had XP during release, it took a bit to figure out why it didn't work for some.

    As the official EA server acting up more and more and RSW made a neat tool to run a foyer/matchmaker server your own, a bat file to swap between the official EA server and a fan hosted one was released too.
