Dedicated Server launcher 2.1 name change

What permissions do you give others to modify and/or maintain your submission?
Modify: ASK ME - Maintain: YES - Others must ask me for permission before modifying my submission or use it in their own work, and I reserve the right to say no for any reason. I do, however, give permission for my entire submission to be maintained by others.
This is a Batch script tool that makes it easy to host your first dedicated server.


It allows you to select which room to assign your server on the master server, while also allowing you to choose a password for remote admins, and to connect automatically to the server (By launching another game client).


The batch script is compressed in a zip file because I am unable to upload .bat files to the forums / addons & more submission interface.

Notes: (Important to read)
  1. This script only works on Windows because it relies on Windows specific file paths and code structure.
  2. This is NOT a replacement for port forwarding.
  3. Other game features must be accesed via the adedserv.cfg file. You can create one yourself by opening notepad, listing every SRB2 command each in their own line, and saving it as adedserv.cfg instead of adedserv.txt. You can also straight up create a txt file and change the extension accordingly. (Keep in mind that the file doesn't exist by default and you must create it yourself)
  4. Even though you need to have this batch file in the same folder as srb2win.exe if it's not on the default folder (C:\Users\<user>\SRB2 v2.2), you can freely create shortcuts that point to the batch that's in that folder.
  5. Why did I say "[...] if it's not on the default folder (C:\Users\<user>\SRB2 v2.2) [...]"? Because this script is perfectly capable of working off of it! That means, if you installed the game there, you don't need to move the script and you can run it anywhere you want!
  6. Batch scripts are sometimes dangerous because they could be malware. If you got the batch from somewhere else, don't run it!
  7. Keep in mind that Batch scripts don't require administrator rights to harm your computer!
  8. If you are unsure whether a batch script is safe, you can try scanning it with an antivirus, or asking ChatGPT what the code does.
  9. With this in mind, you can freely access the code by opening the script using basic text editors like the integrated Notepad app in Windows.
