Step-by-step operator runbook for turning on updates.jakubkadlec.dev:
create the webroot, append the site block, validate the Caddyfile
before reload, watch for Let's Encrypt cert issuance, verify from an
external client, plus explicit rollback for every mutating step and a
catastrophic-recovery section in case Caddy drops all sites. Targeted
at Jakub (VPS operator) so Claude does not touch the running service.
Caddy site block for the update CDN. Serves the signed manifest with
short TTL, content-addressed blobs as immutable, historical manifests
as immutable, and the Velopack launcher feed alongside. Caching rules
are calibrated so a new release is visible within a minute without
hammering the origin on thundering herds.
Companion to make-manifest.py that signs the output with an Ed25519
private key. Signs the literal manifest bytes — never re-serializes —
because the launcher verifies against exactly what the server delivers.
Warns if the private key file is readable beyond owner. Verified
end-to-end against the launcher's real public key and a tamper test.
After a survey of existing Metin2 launchers, general-purpose
auto-updaters, and adjacent open-source game launchers, update the
design to:
- drop the hand-rolled rename-before-replace self-update path
- use Velopack for launcher self-update (MIT, modern successor to
Squirrel.Windows, handles atomic replace, delta, Authenticode, AV
friendliness out of the box)
- keep the custom asset patcher for the 4 GB game payload, which
Velopack is not designed for
- reference runelite/launcher as the architectural template
- name Sparkle 2 and wowemulation-dev/wow-patcher as Ed25519 prior art
No Metin2 community launcher is worth forking; the ceiling of
published prior art is 'file list + sha256 + HTTP GET' and this design
is already above it. Greenfield confirmed.
Walks a client directory, sha256-hashes every file, emits a canonical
JSON manifest matching docs/update-manifest.md. Excludes runtime
artifacts (.log, .dxvk-cache, .pdb, .old) and the launcher is broken
out as a top-level field rather than an entry in files[]. Does not
sign; pair with a separate signer step.
Formal JSON schema for the release manifest, with canonical ordering
rules so signatures stay stable. Includes a small synthetic example
under docs/examples/.
Design for a content-addressed, signed manifest-based update system for
the Metin2 client. Launcher is a single entry point; server is static
files behind Caddy at updates.jakubkadlec.dev; manifests are signed with
Ed25519. Publishing starts manual in v1 and moves to Gitea Actions in v2.
- Add target menu "Remove from guild" button

1-The "guildbuildinglist" in the Turkish locale had a Turkish character problem; it was converted to UTF-8 and fixed.
2-The *.channel.inf and *.mouse.cfg files were moved to the config folder, and reading and writing from the config was enabled.
3-There was an opening issue with the guild hall construction screen; this problem has been fixed.
