Here's a small tutorial on how to use our Launcher + Updater program, for usage in updating the mod for yourself, and server owners:

1. Open the 'tf2classic' folder, in your Sourcemods folder.
2. Find and open the 'TF2ClassicLauncher' executable.
3. In the "Launch game" tab, there's a button labeled "Update". Click this button to update the game. If it is faded out, you're up to date.
4. After everything has installed, press the "Launch" button, or locate the game in your Steam Library.
