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.
- Windrose installation path
- local mod folder
- sync and consent settings
- optioneel chat/ingame name link
- Download of mod manifests and mod files
- chat server connection
- server status / Online Center
- update check
https://windrose-vargatech.de/updates/win/latest.yml
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- outdated mod files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
Mod-sync is instelbaar
The current launcher version no longer synchronizes automatically every 30 minutes. Players can consciously control synchronization in the launcher.
Can be enabled or disabled. If disabled, the launcher starts without an automatic mod check.
Can be enabled so non-matching local mods in the ~mods folder are handled safely.
Mod sync can be started manually anytime in the Mods section.

Autoconnect / UE4SS is an optioneel feature. It is not installed secretly.
Autoconnect / UE4SS may be synchronized. Existing files are backed up first.
Nothing is written to R5\Binaries\Win64.
Runs the sync once without changing permanent consent.
