OFFICIAL NEWS

RyZtart becomes the default installer for Windows and Linux

For a few months now, RyZtart, our new Ryzom installer, patcher and launcher, has been in beta testing on Linux and Windows and in development on MacOS.
We are happy to announce that it is now the default installer on the Ryzom website ( www.ryzom.com) for Windows and Linux platforms!
Installing RyZtart does not require you to uninstall the old Ryzom installer. The two can cohabit without any problem.

RyZtart makes your life easier

RyZtart offers a connection option to your Ryzom account. Once connected, you won't have to enter the password for the next sessions. Moreover, RyZtart allows you to connect directly with a character without going through the selection window.

Versatile, RyZtart will also provide utility modules

With a totally modular design, RyZtart is meant to provide utility modules to add new possibilities.

Here is a non-exhaustive list of modules that we think are interesting to develop and for which we call on all players who have some knowledge of Python programming and wish to help:

• Module to replace textures by their high-definition version.
• Module to automatically backup save/ folders to an external folder (Dropbox folder, USB key, etc.).
• Module to automatically backup save/ folders to the Ryzom Cloud for subscribed accounts (even every account if resources are sufficient).
• Forge module allowing players who want to contribute to the improvement of Ryzom to automatically install the necessary tools for development, graphics, wiki, etc.

RyZtart using the pywebview GUI ( https://pywebview.flowrl.com), it would also be possible to integrate web applications.
