Hello Distroir, great job! - But I want give you big suggestion for Mono and UPX or VCPKG with zlib static x86.

I made mkbundle with "Custom SDK Launcher.exe" into bundled executable. "CustomSDKLauncher.exe" 20 mb and UPX to > 7 mb. And you don't need install Net Frameworks 4.x :) Because mkbundle is great bundler of net frameworks as "jit-compiler" or dotnet core.

I hope you allow me if I use mono into standalone executable. ( embedding assemblies into executable )

Keep your work!

Example bundled executable of Custom SDK Launcher.

If you have errors than you have to install Mono Runtime whatever you would like that. Please reply me! I want listen that because I already re-compiled and re-installed mono runtime with cygwin-x86.

PS: Don't worry - it is my test. if you want show icon in bundled mono-application than you need to add icon-path after generated temp.c and add icon into temp.s ( Important because temp.s need to convert for embedding bytes from icon file like hxD or hex editor to bytes 1, 2, 3, ... )
And compile manuell from generated compile process of mkbundle. I hope you have to get bundled executable...

// EDIT:
Why do I need vcpkg?
If you use mkbundle -z --static --deps --keeptemp "Your app.exe" -o "Your generated bundled.exe" -v than you need to execute path from generated command line from generated mkbundle process "-I "Path-to-.include - zlib.h" and -L "Path to zlib.lib" or copy from vcpkg\installed\zlib-static-x86\include* and vcpkg\installed\zlib-static-x86\lib* to your output of debug or release directory of Custom SDK Launcher.exe than build again and it is standalone executable don't need install net frameworks :) Enjoy your bundled application!

If you have got errors and you make sure copy from mono-path-to-installed\include\mono-2.0* mono-path-to-installed\lib* all lib files into your debug or release of Custom SDK launcher than build again. It is really successful from compilation. And check if your executable works - If you are not sure than you need change from cl.exe line "/SUBSYSTEM:windows" to "/SUBSYSTEM:console" and generate again and check command line if it throws error example System.NullNotException or mscorlib need download errors. Please don't copy from C:\Windows\Microsoft.Net\frameworks\4.5! Copy just from "mono-path-to-installed\lib\mono\4.5*.dll to your release or debug directory just copy before "copy "C:\mono_x86\lib\mono\4.5*.dll ." - If you see before i18n assemblies couldn't found .

Remember Mono bundling is not only Net Frameworks mscorlib.dll just use mono's mscorlib.dll

// EDIT: If you have problem with wrong x64 of clang and cl from Visual Studio 2017 Community - you need build manuell.

Download gedit.exe for Windows because it can load and write external large temp.s file ( bytes ... ) Don't use Notepad or Notepad++! Because both stopped of process if they can not load large temp.s ( more than 10.000 lines ) That is why I have tested with gedit for Windows can write large than 10.000 lines of text. And install gedit for Windows and open temp.s with gedit for Windows!
Replace "assembly"_XXXXXXXXXXXXX to "_assembly"_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX froM Ctrg + H and wait until all marked text "assembly" to "_assembly" than save temp.s and you see that progressbar shows. Until it is completed from saving. and Use command line:
""C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\ClangC2\14.10.25903\bin\HostX86\clang.exe" -c -x assembler -o temp.s.obj temp.s"
And cl.exe in command line
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.12.25827\bin\HostX86\x86\cl.exe" /MD /I "C:\Program Files\Mono\include\mono-2.0" /I "." "temp.c" "temp.s.obj" /link /SUBSYSTEM:windows /ENTRY:mainCRTStartup /NODEFAULTLIB libmono-static-sgen.lib kernel32.lib version.lib ws2_32.lib mswsock.lib psapi.lib shell32.lib oleaut32.lib ole32.lib winmm.lib user32.lib advapi32.lib ucrt.lib vcruntime.lib msvcrt.lib oldnames.lib zlib.lib /LIBPATH:"C:\Program Files\Mono\lib" /LIBPATH:"." /OUT:"CustomSDKLauncher.exe"
Than you check generated bundled executable! If you don't see if it happens wioth mscorlib.dll or System.NullNotException errors you can use like this
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.12.25827\bin\HostX86\x86\cl.exe" /MD /I "C:\Program Files\Mono\include\mono-2.0" /I "." "temp.c" "temp.s.obj" /link /SUBSYSTEM:console /ENTRY:mainCRTStartup /NODEFAULTLIB libmono-static-sgen.lib kernel32.lib version.lib ws2_32.lib mswsock.lib psapi.lib shell32.lib oleaut32.lib ole32.lib winmm.lib user32.lib advapi32.lib ucrt.lib vcruntime.lib msvcrt.lib oldnames.lib zlib.lib /LIBPATH:"C:\Program Files\Mono\lib" /LIBPATH:"." /OUT:"CustomSDKLauncher.exe"
And type in command line CustomSDKLauncher.exe
Output:

Your release or debug
It means OK! If you see errors than you need fix. Thanks!
Sorry my bad English! Thanks!

Turn ToolChecker into GameChecker and use it to validate games during editing or adding them

Hi,

I'm quite interested in your project, as Valve does not seem interesting on releasing the SDK for F2P accounts, however I'm not sure what your program is exactly doing, and the readme is a bit dry of info. Does your program allows to download and launch the CSGO SDK without using Steam?

Have a great day :)

Custom SDK Launcher was crashing after fresh install
Bug existed in version 3.4 and branch dev

Remove "Custom SDK Launcher" directory from project

TODO:

• "FMPONE's video tutorials"
• "Counter-Strike Global Offensive Level Design Boot Camp"
• "Man vs. Engine"
• "Optimization Testing in Source Engine"

• Replace name of label "profileNameLabel" to "nameLabel"

Description:

Feedback system would help developers to focus on most useful and important functions of an application.

Example idea of feedback system:

After few weeks/months after first launch of the CSDKL users would be asked for taking part in survey. If user clicked "yes", he would be redirected to survey on google docs.

TODO:

• Create survey on google docs
• Add feedback system
  • Add gui and functionality
  • Add delay system
  • Add setting "Disable feedback notifications"
  • Add "Send feedback" button inside settings
  • Feedback system running in separated task

Check if jar file provided by user in JavaAppConfigurationDialog exists

JavaPathFinder crashes when trying to add Java Application and java is not installed/detected by JavaPathFinder

Add links to other useful tools in "community content browser"

If using automatic detection tell user how many games were found or display list of detected games

• Pre requirements
  • Add "GB Game Id" field to templates
  • Add meta file?
• Processes
  • Ask user if he wants to install the mod
  • Download mod
    • Add GUI for downloader
  • Install mod
    • Read meta file
    • Extract contents of directory

CSDKL fails to remove config.xml and games.xml

Add ILauncher interface or Launcher class and build SimpleLauncher and CustomizableLauncher on top of them

This feature was requested by an user in a survey

Fix displaying game and engine associated with a content

TODO:

• Create separated program registering extensions
  • Add protocol registration method
• Add "Register protocol" setting (enabled by default)
  • Add "RegisterProtocol" config variable

Why is separated application needed?

To add and remove registry keys application needs to gain administrator privileges. It would be very annoying for average user to confirm UAC dialog every time he starts tool, that is needed to work. I have decided that separated application will run every time user changes association settings, so he will be asked for confirmation only when it's necessarry
