-<h1>Linux Game Server Managers_</h1>
+<h1>NEW FORK, NEW RULES</h1>
+Use the new lgsm-core script as a starting point (<a href="https://github.com/jaredballou/linuxgsm/blob/master/_MasterScript/lgsm-core">GitHub HTML</a> - <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jaredballou/linuxgsm/master/_MasterScript/lgsm-core">Direct Download</a>).
+Running that script launches the installer, which pulls the list of games from the gamedata directory.
+Select the game server you wish to install, and it will ask a few questions as to where to install it.
+At this point, the script itself is deployed. Now continue on with the normal instructions.
+<h2>Benefits of the new fork</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>One script to rule them all.
+</li><li>Game server support provided via extensible gamedata system to reduce duplication and increase ability to support more games
+</li><li>Decent enough config backend that exposes most of what game server admins want in flat files
+</li><li>Creates lgsm/cfg/servers directory to control the LGSM script. The files in this directory are:
+<ul>
+<li>_default.cfg - Generated regularly by the main script, this will always be overwritten so do not edit it if you want to keep your changes!
+</li><li>_common.cfg - The config executed by all your instances. Put defaults for your deployment here, for example ip is a common setting.
+</li><li>$instance.cfg - These configs are created for each instance of LGSM. For example, if I install insserver and create another instance by symlinking to it with "inspvpserver", I will have insserver.cfg and inspvpserver.cfg files here. These files will never be overwritten by the LGSM.
+</li>
+</ul>
+</li><li>Better GitHub integration - Supports using Git hashes to check for updated files. Self-bootstrapping sort of works....
+</li><li>Config files for defaults are in a central location, but will be templated and moved to gamedata at some point.
+</li><li>Dependencies handled in standard way via gamedata files. Different versions of the files are referenced by MD5 hashes for a widely supported method of identifying binary content.
+</li><li>SteamCMD and server support for beta and workshop files
+</li><li><b>sourcemod</b> command to install latest MetaMod and SourceMod to your game server instance
+</li>
+</ul>
+Probably a lot more, this started off as a POC of hacks and has sort of morphed into a major undertaking all its own. Below is the original upstream README, since the function of the script has been kept as close as possible to legacy.
