Overview of available VASL mod files.

VASL mod Status VASSAL
VASL 5.9.3 released 2.13.2013 VASSAL-3.1.20
VASL 6.0.1 released 11.21.2013 VASSAL-3.2.8 or latest
VASL 6.0.2 released 1.25.2014 VASSAL-3.2.8 or latest
VASL 6.0.3 released 2.2.2014 VASSAL-3.2.8 or latest

To install VASL:

1. Download VASSAL from the link above and install it on your machine.

2. Download the VASL module using the link above. Open the VASL ZIP file and save the enclosed module (.vmod) file to a known location.

3. Start VASSAL. Select the File->Open module... menu option in VASSAL and navigate to and select the saved VASL module file.

4. You'll see a dialog box showing that VASSAL is tiling the VASL images. This makes the images more efficient while using VASL. After the image tiling completes there will be a long pause as the board images are tiled. There is no feedback for this second step, and it can take a while, so be patient.

VASL 6.0 requires VASSAL 3.2.8 or later and VASL 5.9.3 only works with VASSAL 3.1.20. If you save a module, game, or log in VASL 6.0, you will NOT be able to open it afterwards with VASL 5.9. We recommend finishing your 5.9 games with that version of VASL and starting new ones with 6.0.

VASSAL 3.1.20 and 3.2.x can happily coexist on the same machine. Just make sure to install each version to a different location.
