How can I tell what version I'm playing?

One way is to mouse over the Opart4.exe file in Window's Explorer:

The other way is to select this option from the "Help" pulldown:

This launches a scrolling window. It has the version at the start:

I have a question about the updates. I have the original CD with the .17 version. I cannot find a site top d/l the .20 The thread in these forums takes you a Matrix page that no longer exists. Because of this, I cannot get the .40 update. I have sent an email to Slitherine and they are no help at all. If everything is downloaded from Steam now, is there even a way to upgrade? I would really hate not to be able to update this game. I bought the version of the game with the actual hardback manual and it wasn't cheap. I have already attempted to install the .40 thinking it had the previous updates as well but it doesn't work. The main page opens with the center picture only.

He's not kidding. Here's where the link takes you.

Why does this MF not embed the picture in the post any longer?

Log into your member page on Matrix. On my member page, I can see the download for .20 available and the download appears ready to go when I select that option. I assume this only works if you've registered your copy of TOAW.
