Availability:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/crossfire/files/
Binary packages are not yet available and will be released when they are ready.
'crossfire-client-1.71.0.tar.bz2' contains the source distribution for the client. If you want to play, this is the only piece you need.
'crossfire-client-images-1.71.0.tar.bz2' contains client images and graphics. This prevents the client from having to request image data from the server. It is optional but recommended if you have a slow Internet connection.
'crossfire-client-sounds-1.71.0.tar.bz2' contains sound effects. This has changed since the 1.70.0 release. Of course, it is optional.
'crossfire-1.71.0.tar.bz2' contains the server source distribution as well aspre-generated archetype and image files. If you are running a server, you need this.
'crossfire-1.71.0.arch.tar.bz2' contains the unpacked archetypes and pixmaps. This is only required if you are planning to make changes to game objects and is not needed to run a server or play the game.
'crossfire-1.71.0.maps.tar.bz2' contains the map distribution. If you are running a server, you need this.
