Once you have the source code for Mafia successfully downloaded as in the Compiling from Source page, you will then need to make a patch, as the dev's don't let just anyone update the program. Fortunately, this is very simple, and once you have the patch, post it on the KolMafia Forums for acceptance.

Windows

  1. Right-click on the kolmafia folder on your desktop (this assumes you are using Tortoise SVN), click on "TortoiseSVN" and then "Create Patch...".
  2. A new window then appears. Tick all the files you want to include in the patch (this is probably all of them), and click OK.
  3. Tortoise SVN then merges all your changes into a single .patch file, which you can then post on the forums.
