I can help with the actual launcher code, if you want.

#222

THis actually sounds like a pretty good idea are there any caps on bandwith on github?

#223

@wreed12345 I honestly have no idea. Everything I’ve uploaded has been uploaded very smoothly. I’ve even done about a 23-26 MB file at once and it worked perfectly, so I doubt there is. Asking Google your question though, it seems like GitHub Pages are based on the same amount of size capacity as normal repositories. For GitHub this is infinite, but GitHub likes it under 1 GB. So it shouldn’t be an issue, you can upload as much as you want in one upload, and you will seemingly infinite space, but under 1 GB is recommended.

Also, isteinvids offered to help with the launcher code, another solution is using my library for that sort of thing. I can even provide an some Ant scripts that I used to compile and upload the new jar onto GitHub (it’s actually a mix of Ant and Batch). I wouldn’t be surprised if you chose not to use my library, though. Just an idea :wink:

Game is looking really good :slight_smile:

That also sounds a good idea with GitHub- need to look at that.

Thanks, but aren’t there tools to package .jars.into an exe?

I did do an auto-updatable bootstrap for my own game, you can try it out here.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52647185/Mine2D/Minecraft2D.jar
It updates your game with the latest version. But, with the file upload, you also have to upload a file with just the MD5 algorithm of the file. Other than that, it’s automatic.
If you want, I can give you the source of the bootstrap, you only have to change a few constants. (Name of application, file url, md5 url, and file on local disk)

gabrielbaley74 sent me a good way to get the updates working. I think I will use that it is very simple

Sorry I haven’t added anything in a while, but after a lot of hard work and rewriting of code I am happy to say I have finally added tile maps to the game. That will help reduce asset sizes in the future and allow for deployment on mobile devices since I will no longer have 4096 x 4096 textures lol. There shouldn’t be any visible changes but if you would like to beta test this that would help me find out if I missed anything! DL: http://goo.gl/lUTcJ

Here’s a good utility if you are wanting to package a ‘.JAR’ into a ‘.EXE’ file.

#235

That’s what we have been using(for experimental purposes)
