Simply put, I just want to know if there's a way to disable the forced patching before launching via the Launcher when there's a new update released. Again, this if for use on my OWN servers, with my own audience. I ask this because EVERY time there is an update, it usually overwrites core files that I have edited HEAVILY in order to make the game experience more enjoyable for myself and those that play with me.
I have tried just using the standard EXE to launch the game instead, but HudShift is NOT loaded properly when the Discovery mod is launched through Freelancer.exe.
Disclaimers:
Yes, I know this will make playing on the official server impossible. I don't care, nor do any of my players.
I am absolutely certain there IS a way this can be done, it just hasn't made itself clear to me yet, which is why I'm hoping I'll get some help with it from the people that know how the whole thing works.
