hello guys well long time don't post nothing i decided do this customs updaters hope like guys bb
Guide:
First,
you need to creat a folder and put in the settings and upBuilder.exe files
In your client root folder, put the _settings and the loader.exe files (here, for my server, i named the exe: Shirya)
Open the _settings file :
[main]
Installed=1
UpdatesUrl=http://yourdomaine/client/
NewsUrl=http://yourdomaine/updater/index.html
AtRevision=44
CreateBackup=0
LinkName=by CriticalError from http://l2staging.com/
replace UpdatesUrl=http://yourdomaine/client/ by the link of your ftp where you will put all files for the full check.
replace NewsUrl=http://yourdomaine/updater/index.html by the link of your website where you will add the page of the updater.
AtRevision=44 Don't care about this, he change when you make a new update.
So, now, you need to put the index.html in your website.
this page will be opened inside the updater. (NewsUrl=http://yourdomaine/updater/index.html)
Put all folder and files with index.html in the same folder of your website. They call pictures and more.
In my picture, i edited alot of thing, and finaly, all structures of the index.html. I use somes sql request for add my news and more.
Now, you need to choise your files for the loader.
why not somes system files of your server.
Copy/past the folder in the first step folder, with upBuilder.exe and start this exe.
For my ex, i added all .dat files of system folder of lineage 2.
For source dir, just choise your root folder who have all files for updater
Output dir, choise your folder who the program will write all new files needed to upload on your ftp for the updater.
#Revision will be increased auto.
Click on Build.
Now a new windows.
Normal files = all update maked when you clik on 'full check' bottom
Critical files = all files auto updated when you launch the updater. (you dont need to push on full check)
All files you dont wan to add can be deleted like you delete in the explorer of windows.
When finaly, your config is like you wan, just clik [OK] and the program will creat your files for updater.
The time needed depend of your files size and the number of them.
Go to the output dir and you will find your news files for your updater.
The file named files.lst is a list with all folders and files called by the updater. Don't unzip it. Just cut/paste all in your ftp. (UpdatesUrl=http://yourdomaine/client/)
So, now, when you launch your updater, he will try to find the files.lst at your updatesurl.
If he find it, he read it, and start all critical files update.
When you push the full check bottom, he update all normal files of the list.
