To update from 0.86 using the updater you have to edit the bat startup files and chage the thing it looks for to 0.87 at the minute or I did.

Thank you MAGE team for another great release! The new combat arrows are great and the UI in general looks much cleaner now. Really happy about the Combat NullPointerException fix as well. I had to quit a ton of bot games due to this bug.

First impressions, looks like you guys are going in the right direction.
The MAD ai's suicidal aggressiveness is kind of funny..

Does anyone know what to change in the bat startup files to make the updater access 0.8.7 updates? I looked at it in the hopes of it being a simple fix of changing a 6 into a 7; however, I didn't see anything like that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

should just be 0.8.6 to 0.8.7 that is all I did.

Alright, time for some stupid questions then. I opened every file contained in the updater download. Specifically, in the two with the .bat extention, there are only some commands that set stuff like JAVA_HOME, CLASSPATH, and PATH. Then, it ends with the command "java -jar mage-updater-v1.0.jar". Seeing as I am not too familiar with this stuff, I looked in the .jar file but didn't see any things with 0.8.6 in it. Sorry if this is a really obvious fix, or I am looking somewhere dumb.

I'll explain. Mage Updater wasn't changed so no need to update any .bat file for it.
You just need to run it and it will download jar files that were changed in Mage-Client and Mage-Server.
But as version of both of them was changed from 0.8.6 to 0.8.7 and updater updates only jar files, you need to change mage-client/startClient.bat and mage-server/startServer.bat file by youself by changing 0.8.6 to 0.8.7 inside that .bat files.
