This is a (windows only) launcher and mod manager that I created that pulls a list of mods from external sources (currently only the srb2 forums) and provides an interface to quickly download and play them. I mostly made it for myself, but I thought others might like using it too.
The point of using this manager is you wont have to deal with the hassle of moving/extracting/etc. mod files to play them while also keeping meta information about the mods (their release profile, description and screenshots, if there are any updates available, ...), and the type of mod grouped.
Not a direct replacement for other launchers as I haven't implemented most of the net game stuff (creating a server, joining a server, etc) and don't have plans to really, and am missing some launch options.
Features:
This program is licensed under MIT and is open source, with source code and other helpful information available on my github page linked here.
This requires .NET Framework 4.5.2 at minimum, but all later versions would work as well. A link to that specific version can be found here. Any lower versions are not tested, but they may or may not work. This should work on versions of windows as low as windows vista, but windows 7 and above are confirmed to be working.
It is heavily suggested that you use the mod manager itself to download and manage mods instead of locally adding every mod yourself, though you have that capability if you need to.
There may still be issues and I could probably add a new icon and things like that, so any fix or (small) feature requests I'd be willing to implement. Special thanks to LazyMK/Kunai on one of the SRB2 discords for testing.

Features:
- A few simple launch options with your settings saved transparently to your user profile (no need to juggle a .cfg file from folder to folder or anything).
- An easier experience downloading and using mods from the forums with minimal network overhead.
- Mods are grouped by categories to be able to quickly distinguish what the mod does what and what it affects.
- Access to the downloaded profile for any mod, complete with their description and screenshots (which are only downloaded when viewed). This will also notify you if the mod has an available update.
- A few other helpful things.
