This is relevant to you already having code in an older Evennia version. If you are new, or don't have much code yet, it may be easier to just start fresh with the [Installation](./Installation.md) instructions and copy
Prior to 1.0, all Evennia installs were [Git-installs](./Installation-Git.md). These instructions assume that you already have a cloned `evennia` repo and use a virtualenv (best practices).
If you don't have anything you want to keep in your existing game dir, you can just start a new one using the normal [install instructions](./Installation.md). If you want to keep/convert your existing game dir, continue below.
- If you have changed `mygame/web`, _rename_ the folder to `web_0.9.5`. If you didn't change anything (or don't have anything you want to keep), you can _delete_ it entirely.
- Copy `evennia/evennia/game_template/web` to `mygame/` (e.g. using `cp -Rf` or a file manager). This new `web` folder _replaces the old one_ and has a very different structure.
- It's possible you need to replace/comment out import and calls to the deprecated [`django.conf.urls`](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/urls/#url). The new way to call it is [available here](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/ref/urls/#django.urls.re_path).
- Run `evennia migrate` - note that it's normal to see some warnings here, _don't_ run `makemigrations` even if the system asks you to.
If you made extensive work in your game dir, you may well find that you need to do some (hopefully minor) changes to your code before it will start with Evennia 1.0. Some important points:
