I get a deprecation warning with  Override, but I was unable to 
find the proper way to do it.
Am I meant to add override before the method like this?
override public void startThread(Thread t, int pri) {
    ...
}

Am I meant to wrap the entire method in override { } like this?
 override {
    public void startThread(Thread t, int pri) {
        ...
    }
 }

Both of them compile, so I'm wondering which to use. Is override 
{} supposed to be for adding multiple methods inside to avoid 
writing override before each method, or is putting override in 
front of the method without brackets just wrong?

Both styles you put there should work equally well.

I had no error on the examples I posted, only when using 
 Override previously. It just says to use override attribute 
instead of  Override

base class method game.GameWindow.startThread with 
game.client.Client.startThread deprecated; add 'override'

Yeah, that just means use the override keyword on the method. 
There is no  Override thing, it is a plain lowercase keyword.

Note that it doesn't say _instead of Override_. Override is an undefined 
symbol in your code.  Override is user defined attribute (UDA) syntax. 
The programmer is responsible for defining the semantics of user defined 
attributes.

Unlike in Java, D's override indicator doesn't look like an 
annotation, it's just a keyword placed before a method along the 
same lines as "static" or "public" or "protected".
