vbGore Free Online RPG Engine

nice, yeh there would be a big need for one in vbgore

sweet, that looks awesome! I was thinking vbGore should have one of those.

Niceeee nex666 I'm sure this will help developers with their game

vbGORE already has a perfectly good updater though.


Oh well, hopefully this one is better

Yeah, I know Darky, but still...this looks better and I hope it functions better

Features:

-Open source client (but not the libraries I made for it to use).
-You can change the website/game name/logo through the config if you're not familiar with code or change the source code in the actual client if you are (this way all the config will be hidden from the user).
-Easy to edit/work with xml files used for defining updates, you can update any kind of game file anywhere as long as you upload that file to a web server.(will provide space on vbgore for this)

No need. Just have a graphic with the bar going halfway.





I kid ya, good job Nex.

my thought as I saw this...
maybe we were the only 2 to get the old one working?
xD

well I'll definetly look into it, maybe theres some nice Ideas I could use
C#?

C# indeed

Does this one use the whole checking each file method, like the vbgore one does, or can we just send it a list of files to update, if it sends us a game version number?

Because looping through the files for a whole game takes a while, and that would be awesome

What it does is send the "Update.xml"

Compares it with the "Update.xml" in the local directory, the update.xml contains a list of files like: local name, server name, version

If the version is greater then it downloads it (or if it doesn't exist on the client end it downloads it too)

So theoretically you could just give the users the update.exe and it could download the whole game too

Edit: There's also an editor/builder for this update.xml file that's easy to use (called Update builder, automatically uploads it to the site too )

Win.

So... how do you get it?

It's on the bottom of that cliff over there.
