Installation

This program is written in Java. However thanks to Java 14 and the new jpackage module, installing Java GUIs became pretty easy.

Supported Operating Systems

This program uses some Windows related paths and was only tested on Windows systems. You can still run the jar on any operating system. However I'll not support any other os than Windows officially.

MSI Installer

The most convenient way of installing this program is using the msi installer. Simply execute it and click through the installation prompt. As with any other program you can use the control panel to remove the software again. The msi installer ships its own jre, in other words you don't need Java installed on your PC to run the program.

Standalone Jar

Another possible way is to simply run the jar by double clicking it. This requires at least Java 11.

Build it yourself

1. Cone the repository

git clone https://github.com/Kaktushose/LS-ModManager.git

2. Build the jar

mvn clean package

3. Build the installer (optional)

This requires Java 14 and the javafx-jmods files installed on your PC. You may modify the --module-path options inside the build.bat file.

./build.bat
