Shader Modding Support Launcher

---

---

This is NOT a mod in the traditional sense, so do not load it inside the game.
Instead, directly open the downloaded folder to continue using it.
It is NOT recommended to use it directly inside the Steam Workshop folder, because updates from the launcher may overwrite your configuration files!


This launcher is designed to simplify the steps required to make the game support shader modifications and to enhance the game’s functionality with shader support. With the default settings, players can launch the game with shader modification support in just one click.
It also comes with a mod manager, as well as toolsets for handling textures, materials, and shaders.

Shader modification specifically refers to enabling regular mods to modify the contents of the resource/shader folder.
After launching the game through the launcher, you only need to load mods that contain shaders as usual to play the game normally.

Due to the character limit of the Steam Workshop description, this section has been moved to the following discussion:

The launcher has just undergone a major refactor. If you encounter any significant error reports while using it, please actively provide feedback to me!

It’s best to avoid the following actions to prevent undefined results in the launcher:

• Closing SMSLauncher.exe from Task Manager while the game is running
  
• Manually modifying any folders or files in the game’s root directory that contain the word “shader”

If Gate of Hell receives an update, it’s best to check whether shader files have been overwritten (this is very rare).
If this happens, delete all files containing “shader” and verify the integrity of the game files.

In very rare cases, I provide additional launcher support.
If you:

• Can play Gates of Hell normally
  
• Cannot open the launcher through any exe file

There is a bat-version launcher stored under mod/batLauncher. It is very primitive, but it allows you to launch the game in DirectX 10.1 mode.
This bat file can only be run inside the Steam library folder that contains Gates of Hell.

The following repository contains the source code of this program:
