Explanation/Guide:
download and extract the attached rar file. it contains two sub folders. the source and the precompiled example.

The source folder obviously contain the source code of the program. with it you may able to change the appearance of your interface and modify some codes to make it fit on your server.

The precompiled example folder, contains two sub folders which has a name that give instruction where to save it. In the copy paste to client folder you will see the patch.ini and play.exe(the actual pre compiled program of the source). The other folder contains the example patches and the patcher.ini that holds the current list of patches...

just follow the name of the two sub folders when you are installing it.

attached is the source code and a precompiled example.

yes it is. just check the attached rar file. I included a sample folder which consist two sub folder with a name that give instruction where to save it.

by the way.. the site can be configured in the patch.ini ... you may change it with your own site..

Well this information is needed.
If yours is better people would want to know which one they should use, or not to use.

Will...its up to them to try... Kinshi's work is console base, where mine is GUI... with it they may able to set there registration site to the interface so new user may able to register directly upon starting the play program.

By looking at the way its coded, id say kinishi's is better, ill take a look at cleaning this up to make it alot more stable and cleaner.

@.Arco: Give him a break, if he wants to release something then thats fine, theres no need for which is best, they are both fine.

@OP: Nice post, I sort of like the GUI, but perhaps a different webpage would be better, is that changeable? I havent downloaded it yet.

omg Korvaks ... Here is the source, you can change all ... -.-

Thank you kamote, I'm really liking this autopatch, I belive I'll use it for my own server

I hope you don't mind that I change the names.

Btw nice work on the gui. I think I'll change the colors around to make it look cooler :P


Also, the web page is changeable Korvacs.
I'll make a template for this, I'm in dream weaver now. :P

@Korvacs: yes it is.. just change the Site location @ patch.ini

@Mentalis: No Problema... as u can see i release it with a source.. therefore it is an opensource release, thou i didn't include a GPL text on it... hehehe
