IVAN = IVAN version 0.50, the most recent official release.
IVAN CVS = IVAN version 0.62 or so, compiled from the source code that was being worked on for the next version when the devs did their vanishing act. Not as stable as IVAN, but with more fancy stuff.

I play the 3D version, which is basically same as CVS. I recently installed LIVAN too... Well, I haven't really played more than one or two games this winter anyway.

HEy Erno, can you post the link to Z's page with the ivan 3d download? maybe it can be added to the downloads page as well.

I might take up playing Ivan again and figured I'd play the CVS this time.

It is in the downloads page, isn't it? Try the variants tab... I'd go with one of the other variants though, as they've got a lot new stuff which keeps things intresting.
