Minor glitch in the MSLauncher

MSLauncher doesn't seem to recognize srb2.srb as one of the default files. Thus, every server has srb2.srb listed as an added WAD.

There should be an update to fix that.

Unless there was a 2.0 update to it, I think it's a feature to turn that off

No, I have that feature turned on. It doesn't matter. The MSLauncher just doesn't recognize srb2.srb as a default file.

Maybe because it has a different md5sum than 1.09.4?

Though if that was the case drill.dta and weapons.dta would also show up.

Could this be the reason the game isn't working on my computer anymore?

Well, obviously that's the reason. I'm not asking why it happens. I'm pointing out that it's there and that it needs to be fixed.

Thanks for pointing this out.

The reason this happens is that, in the testing builds of SRB2, the IWAD was called srb2.wad, and I mistakenly assumed that it would stay this way for release. The launcher has a hardcoded list of "default" files, and omits those from the list in the tooltip. I'll fix it if/when I next update it.

No, it's not related.
