I made that launcher quick and sloppy for epvp, and honestly, I don't care who uses it, what they use it for, where it get's shared... But if someone uses my work, especially to put their name on it, I would appreciate, at minimum, mention of my name.

I did told you, yes I used your zipFiles function, beside the look that every launcher looks the same, the color is the same used in all of our GamePortal releases, and the UI is close to your, it looks the same, but as a coder you that the design is just the base of the work, you won't get it functioning correctly without a code, that is I did change everything on it, to keep myself away from such things, but still happening, anyways about the version (local version) since it's the same, I will change it, anything else?

I think the things you're complaining about are minor things, an extention of a file, a UI design or a way of remote-local version check (which any launcher uses).

You obviously will say anything and argue as much as is necessary to deny this aligation, and honestly, I don't care enough to continue. It was innadequate code when I wrote it, and it's innadequate as rewritten (Although definitely cleaner and better looking). It is still sad to me that you will refuse to give due credit, but rather than fighting you, I'll give you a tip;

Instead of checking a local version, especially in the way it is here, try using an md5 checksum. With the local version file, all i have to do is open it in a text editor, change the value to 1000000, and I'll never be forced into another update. With md5 checksum comparison every file will always be compared against the one on the server.

And with that I wash my hands of this thread.
Bye.

Hey mate. glad to hear it helped you.

Anyways the color of the progressbar is coded inside pbar.cs
change this code at line [47] and rebuild your project:

            LinearGradientBrush lb = new LinearGradientBrush(new Rectangle(0, 0, this.Width, this.Height), Color.FromArgb(255, Color.Cyan), Color.FromArgb(50, Color.White), LinearGradientMode.ForwardDiagonal);

you can see I'm using "Cyan" as a color. you can use rgp color codes such as: Color.FromArgb(64, 64, 64)

Oh yeah, because the string server or something is created by you, wanna know how many projects use stringnames like that ?
