Command line arguments for the client, not the launcher ( --openworld or --connect would be ideal for different installs)

PonyVStudios That tool does not work unfortunately, just throws out SSL errors for every single mod.

SalazarWindriver not rn but some users already reported that so I'll fix it on the next update. It'll remember the last used directory for new installations and versions.

Trubbel examples?

is there a way to set it up so it always tries to install to a different location?  I keep my games on a second drive but it keeps defaulting to my C drive.  It would be nice to be able to point to an instance folder and have each install create a version folder at that location to install. 

Any support for command line arguments upcoming?

I posted some time ago on the forums instructions on how to check what version you have installed, and how to install .net7 - did you see that? Might help you.

THANK YOU.

I wanted to... but I can't. Linux has a lot of different distros and, of course, installation process and support is completely different for each distro so I can't do it.

I'm planning on do it automatic on Debian distos like Ubuntu, Linux Mint... and some others like Arch Linux bc those are used by almost everyone, but I can't make it work on every distro, sorry ;-;

Will this help with installing .NET 7 as well as the game? I've had a really hard time finding a way to install .NET 7 to Linux Bazzite.

Mod management will be the second biggest feature of VS Launcher.

The auto-update feature is something I already thought about and I want to implement it but it'll take time. This si the readmap for the mod management:

1. List and search mods. (Mods page)
2. Install mods. (Mod page)
3. Uninstall mods. (I'm not sure where I'll add this)
4. Update mods. (Manually, if you install a new version the old one will be removed)
5. Save mods as favourite. (This ones will be shown at the top of the Mods page)
6. Update mods automátically with a button. (Check for mod updates on a Installation and update them if there is a newer version compatible)
7. ...

I'll try to have points 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 working and released as alpha this year. 6, 7... will be done on January.

Good suggestion! I would gladly pay for this (or donate) to make it happen! DarkThoughts

Do you plan on adding mod update management too? Because I have not played for a while and the mod page here is such a mess, because I just have 362 notifications, and rising, because it does notify you for every single version release, making it an absolute pain to update mod.

I've removed the installer option. Now there is a little txt and an image explainning how to download from github pages. The script throwing virus warnings was a pain. The setup is completely fine... the installer was fine too... but it was downliading and installing things automátically so... not good looking for anti-virus

Es posible que te lo reconozca como malware ya que es un script que decarga un .exe de GitHub(la última versión de VS Launcher) y lo instala en tu equipo... Quiero subir el instalador directamente pero no puedo ya que pesa casi 100MB y el límite de la moddb es de 48MB ;-;
Si quieres puedes descargar el instalador directamente en https://github.com/XurxoMF/vs-launcher/releases y así te evitas la alerta. Tendrías una de autór no verificado igual que pasa algunas veces con el instalador de Vintage Story pero le das a más opciones > installar y listo. RedRockG 

It is possible that it recognizes it as malware since it is a script that downloads an .exe from GitHub (the latest version of VS Launcher) and installs it on your computer... I want to upload the installer directly but I can't since it weighs almost 100MB and the moddb limit is 48MB ;-;
If you want, you can download the installer directly at https://github.com/XurxoMF/vs-launcher/releases and thus avoid the alert. You would have one from an unverified author, just as sometimes happens with the Vintage Story installer, but you click more options > install and that's it. SkivenLaChog

me lo reconocio como virus , malware.AI , malwarebytes

Getting a Windows Security alert when I try downloading, "Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml." Surely a false positive, but I thought I ought to let you and others know that it's setting off Windows' allergies.

McJty I'm working on a Linux build. I'll try to have it working and published this weekend ^^

Does this support Linux?

I want to release it before christmas so... 1 or 2 weeks I hope Tarbrough ^^

A fantastic Idea! I look forward to seeing it develop. Can't wait for the mod part however~

The first part, version recognition, I'll add a buton to look for an installed version so you can add it and not install it again

About the second part, when you create an installarion you can select the folder where your data was and play with that one.

You can only have one session ar the same time so if you login on another installation you'll have to login again of course. That happend without the launcher too.

Program did not respect ( can´t add installed games before launcher ) and did not respect my mods directory / Vintagestorydata/mods. And of course after reinstall need to login again..

Hiii, I've answered on github ^^

Thx for letting me know you like it. If you want you can let me know the features you'ld like to see and I'll check them out and see what I can do ^^

I love this approach. It's a great way to handle some of the common issues with managing mods and maybe in the future some other things like play styles and other configs the main menu doesn't give us a way to manage today. I added  a couple of notes on github too for tech stuff. But i just wanted to say thank you for creating this here!

I'll add a little guide on the description to download it.

The warning message is because I've not trust certificate, it costs like 400€ to 500€ so I can't pay it lol

DejFidOFF I'm open to suggestions. Let me know what you think that couls be improved and I'll check it ^^

good start, but need to work on that..
