Manual Version - How to build another

Papabard · #1 06-19-2010, 08:36 PM

Ok gm9 was looking at the announcment and wanted to ask what do I need to do to bring the manual download up to date with the game. There is so many variations of the files and not sure where to begin to make this doable. I can host it for those who are majorly having problems with the updater.

Would probably be easiest if those working on it did it since they got all the files, but it is their decision (e.g. Kaldran could easily offer an always up to date all in one package on the updater server but I do not know whether he considered it or has the spare bandwidth for that. Or Silat could post a package on here). Otherwise to pull everything down from the updater it would probably be easiest to select each variant once (ending on the default variant) to have the updater grab them all. Skip the skins.

Bandwidth should not be a big deal, but cpu time might, I'll monitor that.

ZIP file with all current files generated on the fly from the updaters' file list

ProfitUI All-in-one package (~28MB)

You will find that link on the updaters' website as well....

However I don't know how this behaves on slow connections where the script might time out before streaming all of the data...

Downloaded and attempted to open. Winzip gives an error as not a valid zip file. Windows Explorer does indeed open it though.

At that size you've got all the skins in there, suggest to drop them since they are available as a separate download from this site.

Removed the skins and also zipped with Winzip and was able to get the size to 3 megs vs 28

If you want I can upload here or I can host to my webspace.

No need, Kaldran just needs to exclude the skins directory in his php script. I'm going to add his manual download link to the announcement you mentioned in the OP.
