The installer is very complex and more so the upgrader piece since all the tables have changed and the data needs to be converted and moved as needed to reduce the amount of tables and to help reduce certain pieces of code and queries.

This is a very critical test and must be 100% so no data is lost to the end users even though you are asked to backup your database first before installing/upgrading, but hey, I want to minimize as much as possible the install/upgrade time for everyone without them having to retrieve and restore a backup.

Note: I have been asked by users of vwar (the original script) if I can come up with a conversion script and I am looking into this but cannot do this at this time, my highest priority is to have vBWar Gold on all versions first.
