How Do You Distinguish IPB and v3 Games?

[JacquiiDesigns]

How can you tell the difference between an IPB and a v3 game?
Is there a definitive and concise way to know that your game is one or the other?
For instance, do IPB games all end in .tar extension or... vice versa... or what?

Thanks,

J.

Depending upon where you are downloading the games from they'll usually tell you. A good rule of thumb is one that you've already noticed.... nearly all IPB games are distributed in a .tar file versus nearly all v3A games are distributed in a .zip file.

If you use the 'game import' feature though it is smart enough to try & figure out what type of game it is automatically for you.
