Click here for documentation about the download process on sf.net.
There is, to the best of my knowledge, a file called 2.x -> 3.x - the update is in the install folder and is called install_convert.php and has to be run as part of the install, it is not a separate script!

I now no longer support any of my extensions but they will start to become available here
do i need to overwrite the 2.x files then start the install ?
i have the 3.x files on another loction (i was thinking to import the 2.x database)
but i getting the:
No installation found
To perform a conversion you need to have a default installation of phpBB3. Please note that for a conversion the new installation and the old installation need to reside within the same database. You may now want to perform an installation.
thx for awnsering so fast, hehe now im in big trobble
i have done a backup for the 2.x database, deleted the 2.x files
copyed the new 3.x files to the original location the only problem is
how can the install see the 2.x database for the converting?
The converter may convert it… though it will leave you with a lot of forum cleanup work.
Since phpBB3 is still in Beta, it's a good time to test the converter and see how it does for you before RC1 comes and you are ready to go live
