  • Download a bunch of dependencies to build an EXE myself... or just make a .bat file with:


    start Aki.Server.exe

    start Aki.Launcher.exe

    • So go ahead and do that. Nothing is making you do anything here. I merely provided source code on how to do it with C++

      Enjoy your bat file and thanks for the tip, never messed with it before :)


      edit:

      dang it really is that simple lol


      Could have been a bit nicer about it , but appreciate the tip nonetheless

    • Seriouly, not being a jerk. You know enough about programming, yet never once in your life used or crated a simply .bat file? That seems really hard for me to believe. I do believe you, just find it extremely odd. Have a good day/

    • I've seen bat files , but I've also seen them in their really messy state and just haven't put the effort into even trying. I honestly never once thought to look into creating a process with a .bat file

      but its also really limited to. You dont have an open handle to the process, you can't read and write memory from the process, you don't have control over any of its threads. But, my launcher doesn't really take advantage of any of that.

      I will certainly be putting this in my toolsset and will look more into at least the basics of .bat files. I have only just started coding about a year ago now, mostly for making game trainers for older games using PCSX2 and some other x64bit games. Im self taught from youtube videos , msdn , learncpp and stack exchange lol



      EDIT:


      I've now included the .bat file as a release. Thanks for showing me how its done @Mendes :)

    • Thanks

  • Why did you not make a release on github with the exe file for x86 and x64 ?

    • Because I am only able to release as source

    • Maybe next you could register a new domain name and ask users to go there to view all the [ https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/ ] mods, and then redirect them to that site to actually download them :) Sorry, really not being a jerk, but if you know enough to create this, you shuold have known enough that it was not going to be very efficient or useful for folks. I hope you next endeavor works out better for you. Good day....

  • What do you mean "build the project"?

    • You are going to want to Visual Studio 2019/2022 installed with C++ Project dependencies installed as well.

      - Clone my repository on github. (Download the source files)
      - Launch SPTarkov-Launcher.sln , make sure it is in Release mode targeting the x64 platform.
      - Press CTRL+B to build.

      The executable will appear in the project folder

      ..\SPTarkov-Launcher\x64\Release\SPTarkov-Launcher.exe

    • If you need modding resources just to install a mod, the mod is not user friendly, just saying.

    • Its a source file. Sorry for not making that more apparent :(

      Thanks 1
    • The video instructions helped a lot. Thanks!
