Older versions compatibility

[archaeopteryx]

Hey guys, I'm an average Ubuntu 16 user who still is using the a23 for technical reasons(my machine is a very old one) and that's why I ask:

There exists a way to add manually the new skirmish maps to my old version? Or they can't runt on it?

And also is it possible to add the missing animations like the pig's and the bear's.

I'd really appreciate your help.

Yep, that seems possible, just make a mod with the new maps, but don't forget to change the maps to fix any template changes between A23b and A25b (which is virtually every template). See our wiki at https://trac.wildfiregames.com/.

Also, I think A25b isn't much tougher on the resources than A23b, so you might want to give it a try anyway. (And I don't think Ubuntu 16 is avarage.)

I mean I'm an average user in terms of knowledge about programming.

As you mentioned, I will try the new version. How do I update this old version? I already checked the Download page and still nothing. Should I try the Debian instructions or what? The snap version also is outdated.

Perhaps the reason for the software being outdated is you distro being outdated? Although I guess the snap package should be up to date.
