backend/frontend: add a check for the VCC Runtime on windows (#437)
Fixes #303 by checking for the installation and directing the user to go
install it themselves, avoids complicated installer editing which is
good, i can now pursue getting that translated and switching to NSIS (i
think doing the VCC installation would have been easier with the wix
installer).

However this is also better because it will check when the game is
installed rather than the launcher itself (you could imagine a user
removing the runtime after installing the launcher).

OpenGOAL Launcher

Crowdin

Our attempt at distributing the OpenGOAL releases in a cross-platform and easy to use and update way. It also is a place for features involving the games, such as texture pack or mod management.

The launcher uses the Tauri framework, if you are interested in our motivation for why see below.

Usage

See the documentation on our website for hopefully up to date instructions on how to use it.

Asking for help

When asking for help, please download the support package which includes logs to help someone diagnose the problem.

If you cannot do this (for example, the bug relates to making the package / the application won't launch) then you can find the application logs in the following folders:

  • Windows C://Users/<YOUR_USER_NAME>/AppData/Roaming/OpenGOAL-Launcher/logs
  • Linux /home/<YOUR_USER_NAME>/.config/OpenGOAL-Launcher/logs

Note that both AppData and .config are hidden folders.

Development

Tauri requires a valid Rust installation, as well as a valid NodeJS installation.

For installing Rust, it's recommended to follow the instructions here https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install

Windows

scoop install nodejs
npm install -g yarn

Linux (Ubuntu 22.04)

sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev build-essential curl wget libssl-dev libgtk-3-dev libayatana-appindicator3-dev librsvg2-dev # tauri deps, see - https://tauri.app/v1/guides/getting-started/prerequisites#setting-up-linux
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash # installs Node Version Manager (ubuntus package is woefully out of date)
source ~/.bashrc
nvm install lts/hydrogen # installs latest nodejs 18.X
npm install -g yarn

Building and Running

To build and run the application locally, all you have to do is run:

yarn install
yarn tauri dev
