RAZcrack Mu Launcher version 3 Final

i know but i don't want to do that anyway thanks

man please tell my to MSN OR Messager ;) see Yeah

add option and main

exemplo:

_main.exe

and one last thing, we need a checker for the updater to be effective, otherwise users will have the trouble of re-downloading the same files all over again, and once the patch size increases, so will the waiting time. it wouldn't be practical without the checker.

an auto-updater with checker will seal the deal ;)

Pretty good...

need some configs for personalization(like background .jpg, update on/off, user can change settings on/off) etc

Please share source launcher login MU

for ease, how bout the launcher will have a simple tracking file which reads sequence from 1 - infinity then once the update button is pressed, it will read from the client which number the user currently has, as for every complete update the number on the config is changed to a higher one.

for example, in my webserver i have 3 updates in 3 separate folders named 1,2,3 with 3 separate updates (different dates so to speak) then in my client folder where the launcher is, a new config is added named (for example) check.connect or check.update which contains the last number of the successful update patch. so if my config reads 1, it will download contents of folders 2 and 3 only without going back at folder 1, then after downloading, my config data will change to 3 signifying the last successful patch update.

also the launcher has to match the config content to the latest patch folder in the webserver (a cross config can also be an alternative) then once it notes an update it will simply inform the user about the new update (if its manual update) or it can auto update (if ever this function is enabled).

so generally that is the simple and uncomplicated concept of the autoupdate with checker function. hope this gives the launcher creator an idea.

coz if realized, this would solve all our manual patching in which most users get lost on which file is the latest, and what has been changed.

summary

example of what needs to be added.

webserver side:

folder named (in hierarchy) 1 - 3 (depending on # of updates)
1 config (check file - must match check file in client)

client side:

1 config (contains number of last successful patch downloaded)
-if ever webserver config is not equal to client config, an update is either:
announced or indicated (requires launcher modification) or if the autoupdate
config switch exists (1 for auto update, 0 for manual update as proposed)
an auto file transfer is made before the play button is re-activated.
condition : the client config (mentioned above) will only be updated once the
patch transfer is complete.

action: if i have 3 updates, and a client of mine has only 2 updates, it means
in my webserver i have 3 patch folders, and my config reads "3"
the client on the other hand will have "2" in his config to signify that he has the first 2 of my updates but lacks 3.

upon matching 3=>2 a patch update is made. after the update the client config will change to 3 because he has the latest update.

this can be a command added to the launcher, or the patch 3 folder in the webserver will simply contain an updated config with "3" on it.

and so 3=3, no update is made and the user can play.
