NaturalLauncher

Natural selection launcher and updater. Allows for quick update of the natural selection folder.

TO BUILD FROM SOURCES

• If you are building from sources, I imagine you don't want the .exe file to permanantly check for online consistency (public key required) nor self update.
• In order to do so, simply go in SelfUpdater.cs and set the variable "isSelfUpdating" to false.
• You are basicaly good to go !

CHANGE THE ONLINE FILES THE LAUNCHER REFERS TO

• If you want you own files online, simply change, in the configuration setting of the natural launcher projet in VS, the IndexURL to your custom URL
• as well as the GameUrl to the game URL (sounds logical enough ?)
