All I did was delete the old directory and install the new one from the zip. I changed out the announcements.
If I delete the color it would show the first line but only with the showann command not when you log on.
The shutdown timer thing was there are defaults in the config and it will announce at that time. I did not know how to turn it since I did not need it. It cannot shutdown my server as it requires a command setup from server console screen so I assume it is just a timing thing for autoserver resets. I can live without this.
It is not a big deal the old one works fine for me.. really, but willing to help if I needed to see.
