Sorry if it's been suggested before or a WIP (I'm too lazy too look through all 8 pages)

Would it be possible to create a form in the browser such as a Settings menu where users could modify each of the values for the vcmp_config.txt options? e.g textboxes, check boxes, drop menus etc for setting values. maybe even color pickers for the hex related elements.

It's really nice by the way

There are already some settings that you can edit by the Launcher (Go to: settings -> VC:MP Settings)
I've added them just for testing, and later I will add all of them or the mostly possible at least.

Looks pretty nice George! Well done Did you make this with WinForms or XAML or something else? It looks like XAML to me but i could be wrong.

Anyway, back to the main topic. Cool project George, keep it up

It's WinForms
XAML(WPF) takes a lot time to make an app like that and I really didn't have this time, that's why I chose WinForms xD

Thanks man! For sure I will keep working on it

The other alternative is to create a server module that binds to the port next to the main server port and use that communicate. Kinda like they do with IRC. Or you could even use IRC for that matter.

Yeah, this would be nice... But just think how confusing it would be with servers which haven't this module.

All what I want is to help the community, then if you want to help, you are more than welcome to do that, everyone is. The reason that I haven't published the source code is because the malicious people can ruin the launcher's reputation, making bad copies and release for the players outdated of the VCMP forum.

You can see Pootle, it's an online translate toolkit.

BTW. I hope VC:MP's wiki can support multilanguage!

Thanks! I will check it out.

[Attention:]

Attention: Due some issues with email server, the account activation is now suspended, so the activation is no longer required to use your account. To be more specific, only the registration is needed!

Yeah, it's possible, but it's really necessary make it multilanguage asap?
Will be a hard job to do so, however I'm already thinking about do it hereafter.

Nice! I love it!
But I got another bug. Remember the "Stop" and "Show" buttons in the home?
I pressed the "stop" button, and got this error:

Ok, I will investigate what's wrong with that. Thank you!

@KAKAN New update: http://forum.vc-mp.org/?topic=2229.msg16753#msg16753

[February 22nd]

February 22nd

An update has been released!

• Minor bugs were fixed.
• Favorites fixed.
• Back button added to Favorites page.
• Attemping to fix Local query.
• Ping fixed.
• Now the application resolves hostnames. (For example: mydomain.noip.me, the application will always get the IP follwoing the domain provided)
• While loading servers the list will be updated in real-time.
• Added system to configure some essentials VC:MP client configs, you can check out into: Settings -> VC:MP Settings.

The update will be done once you open your Launcher. If you prefer you can download the updated Launcher by clicking here

[Direct connect:]

Direct connect: I wanted to connect to this ip: "babakakan.noip.me" it didn't work.

No back button: I see no back bottom if you go to:- Home -> favorites -> Manage


Suggestion:-
Custom favs: How about adding custom favorites? Like 127.0.0.1 or mydomain.noip.me or something like that. That would be great as well.

All of these were added.

I don't see a way to add custom favorites
And also, the direct connect works if the IP is a float( 127.0.0.1 ) and not a string like babakakan.noip.me

Sorry, I forgot to say. Will be available in the next update.

Error, couldn't login.
Review login details    Try again

p.s. my username is Difluoroethane

Are you sure about your username and password?

[Favorites:]

Favorites: Favorites aren't working. I added my server to the favorite before the update, and now it got removed, when I try to add it again, it says, the server is added to favorites. I can't see the server in favorites and can't add it too The newly added favorites are working, but the old ones are lost and can't get them back now.

Weird, I will try to find what's wrong.

Ping: The ping always shows wrong info. It either shows 20 or 999. Doesn't show the actual one. Add the ping update thing when we click on a server.

Yeah, the ping is f* bugged. I will fix it.

Direct connect: I wanted to connect to this ip: "babakakan.noip.me" it didn't work.

No back button: I see no back bottom if you go to:- Home -> favorites -> Manage


Suggestion:-
Custom favs: How about adding custom favorites? Like 127.0.0.1 or mydomain.noip.me or something like that. That would be great as well.

All of these were added.

Masterlist: The complete masterlist doesn't gets loaded if we use Local query. It throws some kind of error, instead of that you can put try catch there and then again fetch the data, then add it to the old data. By this process, we can have the complete masterlist( can't say exactly that it would work or not since I don't know how he made that )

That's the thing, sometimes and some servers doesn't responds the query and for not keep the receiving thread alive forever, there's a timeout system to prevent it. The weird thing is if you query by PHP this problem doesn't happens and that's why I used the remote query.

@NE.CrystalBlue, @Buddy, accounts were activated!

Please update your launcher: http://forum.vc-mp.org/?topic=2229.0
