<blockquote>
<p>[!INFORMATION]<br />
The auto-update and installation of the game files is unstable and unviable, it is recommnend to have
the
game file already installation<br />
as the installation and update mechanism require external repo that can be shutdown without previous
notice.
I do my best and the nightly build are often<br />
uptodae but the stable version sometime lack behind and require manual intervention.</p>
