Version 3.57 is available from the Help menu in ForScore, or from the Download page on this website. This update includes the current version of ForScore Connect, the tool for exchanging data with PractiScore and for downloading match registrations from wesites such as matchsignup.org.

Version 3.52 is available from the Help menu in ForScore. If you have the Event module, this version offers some graphs and tables for evaluating stages after a sanctioned match - see which stages issued the most procedurals, had the most FTNs, etc. There are also a few minor fixes since the World match, and an option for club matches that lets you change somebody’s division while you’re entering scores without having to go back to the registration screen.

• Version 3.50 is now out of “beta”, and no longer shows an expiration date. 3.50 was used for the New England Regional earlier this month. • The latest IDPA rule clarifications (from idpa.com) are on the Help menu. BUT WARNING: IDPA has edited at least one of the clarifications with no indication on the website that it had been changed. So always consult their website as the final authority.

• Beta 3.47 has been tweaked to work with Windows XP. • I’ve also added BUG into the one-Classifier-for-everybody party. So if somebody shoots a gun and ammo that work for both BUG and CCP for example, you can copy the Classifier scores to or from BUG just as you can with the other divisions. Likewise for BUG and REV.

First public BETA version available to all users. Thanks to the guys who’ve been running matches with previous Alpha and Beta versions. This BETA version will expire, and you’ll need to download a permanent version once it moves out of beta. The 2015 version will work with existing version 3 licenses.

I'm tentatively planning to make the current beta version available on Sunday, April 19. Sorry, but THIS VERSION WILL NOT INSTALL ON WINDOWS XP. This beta version will expire. I don't want people using a beta version forever. The non-beta version will be released after things settle down (probably late summer). Documentation has not yet been updated. (Working on it... even though I know that Men Don't Read!) But here's a basic cheat sheet. You will have two versions of ForScore on your desktop. The blue icon is the old program with your old matches. The green icon is the new version. It will have a copy of your shooter database. It will also have your old matches, but the registrations will be read-only. If you need to recreate results from old matches, please use the old version of ForScore to do so.

The new rulebook has some fun improvements. There will be a revision of ForScore to support it. It will be ready when it's ready...
