launchRO - supports multiple servers/clients and dynamic IP addresses

[Cha0spad]

launchRO is just another launcher for RO2
It supports any number of servers and clients and maps hostnames to IP addresses for all your friends servers that use dyndns.org and likes

I haven't implemented changing config within the launcher yet so for now you have to edit the config file directly. All is explained there.

Drop me a line if you have any questions or comments about launchRO.

Phew , Greats job , i love the skin u make , realy nice release !

Gratz !

I got questions , After your next update , are u gonna share the code source ?

Something to fix :

1. I think that gonna be better in the next release if u give choix for select the RO2.exe , Because is not everyone using Divinia '' Client '' ATM a lots of new server open and '' each '' server make this ONE folder....

@infranox
You can easily change which client you use (that's the whole idea with the applications list). Depending on where you have your EuphRO2 installation the config entry could look like this:

<add appname="EuphRO" apppath="C:\Program Files\Euphro2\System\RagII.exe" />

The code needs a little clean up first then we'll se about sharing :blush:

Glad you liked it // Chaospad

Re: launchRO - example config

Here's an example config that has settings for default installs of EuphRO2, DiviniaRO2 plus a local server.

Make a copy of the launchRO.exe.config file. Open the original launchRO.exe.config file in Notepad and delete the contents. Copy and paste everything from the code section below into the config file and save it.

//Chaospad

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
    <configSections>
        <section name="ro.config" type="launchRO.support.Config,launchRO" />
    </configSections>
    <ro.config default="My own server" dontclose="false" showinfo="true">
        <servers>
            <add servername="DiviniaRO2"
                app="DiviniaRO2"
                serverurl=""
                serverip="89.46.34.63"
                serverport="6000"
                langcode="" />
           <add servername="EuphRO2"
                app="EuphRO2"
                serverurl=""

                serverport="64000"
                langcode="1042" />
           <add servername="My own server"

                serverport="64000"

Its nice, but too big... The skin image is nice don't get me wrong, but~ the application as a whole seems to eat up the screen. :/

 

[Eponz]

very nice and straightforward. simply the app read the xml file as a configuration and make it as selective choices.
that configuration refers to the destination folders that store ragII.exe and its required param.

a lot nicer than bat file isnt it?

very nice background img

Got the whim of playing around with RO2 again and picked up on my old launcher. Anyone still any interest in it? Any requests for updates? Anyone even using it now-a-days? ´

nice server!
I installed a couple of days and I will be perfect

 

[Kang Jinsu]

Not run....T_T

This program does not display all clients.
Also, `Play this server` is disabled.

What should I do?

 

[sloantech]

you have to add the servers manually... try reading any of the OP's posts, it's very straightforward.
