Wat de launcher doet

The launcher is a voluntary community tool for the Varga-Tech Windrose MAIN mod server. It only uses functions needed for chat, server status, mod sync, start gate and optioneel Autoconnect/UE4SS features.

Local data
  • Windrose installation path
  • local mod folder
  • sync and consent settings
  • optioneel chat/ingame name link
Network access
  • Download of mod manifests and mod files
  • chat server connection
  • server status / Online Center
  • update check
  • https://windrose-vargatech.de/updates/win/latest.yml
Belangrijk: No hidden UE4SS installation: Autoconnect / UE4SS is synchronized only if the player consents or runs it once. If “do not allow” is selected, nothing is written to R5\Binaries\Win64.

Consent and sync settings can be changed anytime in the launcher under Privacy & Sync Settings.

Why mod sync matters

Without current Varga-Tech MAIN server mods, problems can occur:

  • wrong or missing textures
  • wrong ingame content
  • outdated mod files
  • connection problems
  • client/server compatibility errors
Required for the MAIN mod server: if you want to play on windrose-vargatech.de, keep the required mod sync active.
Sync settings

Mod-sync is instelbaar

The current launcher version no longer synchronizes automatically every 30 minutes. Players can consciously control synchronization in the launcher.

Startup sync

Can be enabled or disabled. If disabled, the launcher starts without an automatic mod check.

Exact server matching

Can be enabled so non-matching local mods in the ~mods folder are handled safely.

Manual sync

Mod sync can be started manually anytime in the Mods section.

Required mod list source:
https://windrose-vargatech.de/mods/manifest.json

Target folder:
<Windrose>\R5\Content\Paks\~mods
Autoconnect / UE4SS

Optioneel en alleen met toestemming

Autoconnect / UE4SS is an optioneel feature. It is not installed secretly.

Toestaan

Autoconnect / UE4SS may be synchronized. Existing files are backed up first.

Niet toestaan

Nothing is written to R5\Binaries\Win64.

Eenmalig uitvoeren

Runs the sync once without changing permanent consent.

Required mod list source:
https://windrose-vargatech.de/Vargatech-Autoconnect/manifest.json

Target folder:
<Windrose>\R5\Binaries\Win64

Files / folders:
dwmapi.dll
ue4ss\
Back-up: If existing dwmapi.dll or ue4ss must be replaced, the launcher creates a backup first in R5\Binaries\Win64\_VargaTech_Backup\.
Chat, Whisper & Online Center

Communityfuncties in de launcher

Whisper Pro
  • private messages to chat participants
  • select recipients via list or click
  • clicking a name can prepare Whisper directly
Chat-Name ↔ Ingame-Name
  • link chat names with ingame player names
  • better recognition in the Online Center
  • compatible with chat server 2.1.0
Belangrijk: Ingame join/leave names only work if the server status API provides player names. If only player counts are available, the launcher can show the count but not individual names.
Leave server

Varga-Tech server verlaten / mods opruimen

If a player no longer wants to play on the Varga-Tech Windrose MAIN mod server, the launcher provides a dedicated cleanup function.

Use only if you really want to leave the Varga-Tech server. The mods are required for the MAIN mod server.
Cleaned items:
  • R5\Content\Paks\~mods
  • R5\Binaries\Win64\dwmapi.dll
  • R5\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\
Afterwards:
  • sync is stopped
  • a notice window is shown
  • launcher closes
  • uninstaller starts if available

If you still want to play on windrose-vargatech.de, do not use this function.
