[COMING] Launcher R4 Online

[Nosferatu.]

What is R4 Online

R4 Online is a mixture of R1 and R3 SPWD (never released spwd).
With R4, config files are superfluous and security is capitalized. Various encryption methods are used, including SSL.

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral.

R4 can be used online and offline, that you can adjust in the launid.csv before you Complie it to launcher.dat with "first" Launcher start.

,,,,,,
launid,{LAUNID}
dekaron,{SERVERNAME}
online_update,true
online_version,true
online_buttons,true
online_url,true
,,,,,,

You can set your LaunID. Set what you know from the R1. Buttons, URL, Update (.ini) etc ...

Download the launid.csv and turn off what you do not use.

1. If you set online_update to false, you have to put update.ini in the folder like R1
2. If you set online_version to false you have to add a history.cnf on your update server like the R1 launcher

Blacklist

Do you want one person no longer on your server? Enter it into the Blacklist and its Launcher (R4 Online) will receive no information from the database. That means the launcher is blind and can not work.

Therefore, with Launcher R4, no history.cnf should be on the server (if online_version = true), so the user can not use another launcher (like R1). Never use only 1 Server for Update & Dekaron Server!

No Updates = No Connect and Client Crash
But Launcher R4 does not protect your server. You have to do this yourself.

Webinterface

Set everything up comfortably via a webinterface. No annoying config files. And the best, no hacker and no proxy comes in your account. Only you, and your GM's / DEV's (Whitelist) can change / see your data.

Compatible

Launcher R4 is compatible with Launcher R1 if R4 is in offline mode (just delete launcher.dat and use r1 config files).

This has never been. R1 is not compatible with R2 or R3 but with R4.

We miss your contributions. Like the works of eLO21, Janvier132, HellSpider, =Seph=, Zektor etc....
Thanks for coming back brother, your work is appreciated.

Many do not recognize that without the contributions of the people mentioned above, many of the servers that exist or existed would be nothing.

Added something

• Turn off your Launcher Ex. while Maintance

What about Action upgrade?

• Set installations Mode to version xx.xx.xx

Closed Beta or Developing alone?

• Turn DEV Mode on

Be Quiet

To the global like R4 Online, will come a Silent Version of R4 Online. Same engine, without Browser , Buttons and Skin. Just a Splashscreen shows you the Update Progress.



Ist R1 or R4 only for Dekaron?

No, you can use the Launcher for all Programs / Games in the WWW

Is nice, but to many Informations like: Online 0 Players

The problem is that a player does not go to the server when 0 players or only 1 player is online. Therefore, it is best to never show how many players are currently on a server. I would not go under 10 players on the server.

But if I do not know how many players are on the server, then I play because I assume the players are online

If you build such a launcher for your own server is synonymous otherwise okay. For R4 all servers MSSQL would have to store data so that the player can see this information.

Therefore, for my launcher is not feasible because the Launcher is for all.


News about Launcher:

An extension for the new launcher. Start the game with a click on the homepage as known from other games...



You can Manage more then 1 Client with r4helper.
He can see it over the LaunID after you have entered it with the manager as seen in the video.

R4: Helper is also not needed in the Dekaron folder. It needs a own installation

It is also available only for the online version. Because the manager checks if the hash matches. Only then can the client be started with the r4helper.

In the future it should be possible that the server owner can determine whether the player can start the launcher normally or via the homepage (r4helper).

The extension is not Required to use R4 (Only if the server owner wants it, then it is required).

Nosferatu.
