Warzone Versions
A brief history of Warzone releases on Windows, Linux and Mac.
Introduction
Since 1999 there have been almost 200 releases (including developer snapshots). This page lists about 150 of the more widely used releases (demos, patches, alphas/betas and full releases) and provides links to the developer snapshots for the terminally inquisitive! There are still more releases not referenced here, such as the PlayStation releases.
I hope you find this list useful, it took ages to create! It's quite staggering how much effort has gone in to Warzone over the years by people donating their time to keep this fantastic game alive!
For a very detailed list of changes from version 1.01 to the present day, see the official changelog.

Sourceforge & Berlios
It was decided to make Warzone multi-platform, adding Linux and Mac support, hence a sudden version numbering change:
Version | Date | Release Notes | Download | Source Code |
|---|---|---|---|---|
(2.) 0.1 | Jun 11 2005 | All proprietary code removed |
|
|
(2.) 0.2 | Jun 26 2005 | |||
(2.) 0.2.1 | Jul 16 2005 | |||
(2.) 0.2.2 | Jul 27 2005 | |||
(2.) 0.2.3 | Not released | Warzone 2100 project took over development | Not released |
Numerous "trunk" development snapshot releases were also made, spanning the (2.) 0.x branch through to the 2.2.x branch. These have not been listed here or in the next section, however you can download them from the GNA archive.
The Warzone 2100 Project
Finally, The Warzone 2100 Project took over and are still working on Warzone to this very day.
This list is in version order, not date order. For example, the dates for 3.0.0 releases are correct (2010).
If you click a "Browse Downloads" link and get something ending in .tar.gz or tar.bgz then the releases are no longer available (the file you see is the data used to make the releases so you can still build them if you have a build environment set-up).
