Title: Downloadable Client
Post by: Slayer on December 26, 2013, 07:40:11 pm
Why exactly does it run the batch file, is it like a measure against bots?
The cmd gets kinda annoying at some points D:

I believe it's for running different OS. I have a .exe that doesn't open the cmd but i'm not at my house right now. I'll release it once i get home :)

The .exe is what we used to hand out, but people were scared thinking it was a virus.

Whats the difference with the jar,
People nowadays...

But how come that I cant run the client without the .bat, because if I start the jar it just gives me an notification to start the game using the batch file :p

I modified the run batch file so you can press X on the cmd when it runs and the client still loads/runs ;)

I forgot what I've done because I did this months ago, but here's the code.
Right click > Run.bat > edit
Code: [Select]
title RuneRebels
javaw -Xmx256M -jar .\jar\loader.jar -configurl http://www.runerebels.com/resources/config.agf
exit
I think I've just added exit to the end of the script, but idk ;o

Basically in a nut-shell the .exe grabs all the update data from the web server.

Why not release it towards those whom want to download it?

Will test this when I'm out of bed :3
Burt by adding the exit part im
Pretty sure it would also close the client, but lets see


Edit:
Gives me a fatal loading error :p
