Patcher generates a alternative Setup.exe for Patch purposes.

Let's say, you have compressed a whole game, then after a while a DLC come out. To prevent compressing the whole game + dlc again, Patcher just compress DLC files which you can burn.

See Wiki page
Code:
[UpdateOptions]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//UpdateName=						// string
//UpdateNamePL=						// string
//UpdateVersion=					// string
//NeedGameVersion=					// string
//NeedUpdateVersion=					// string
If i'm not mistaken. Never used it.

BAMsE did it in the past with "Fallout 4" conversion.

Hello KaktoR,
Thank you for your explanations.
But which one to choose?
XDelta or vPatch?
Maybe the 2 are similar? Otherwise what is the difference
