    About Pre-Releases

    Do not release or publish a server pack generated using a pre-release of ServerPackCreator to your users.
    If you do, and it turns out that your server pack doesn't work because of a bug in ServerPackCreator, that's on you for using a pre-release.

    When using pre-release installers, make sure to uninstall the previous pre-release first. Otherwise, the installers
    own version checks may trigger an error out of my control. After uninstalling, install the newly downloaded one and
    you're good to go.

    Only use the installers if you are versed in system-administration, manually editing and removing services, editing registries,
    so on and so forth.

    Alphas

    Alphas are feature-incomplete and very likely to have bugs. Consider them broken by default. Use at your own risk!

    Betas

    Betas are feature-complete and probably have bugs. Additional features may be added during the beta-phase of any given release, though.


    If you are updating from version 5 or older and used the installers, then make sure to uninstall any previous version(s)
    before using the installers for versions 6 and newer.

    Additional Installer-Notes

    It is recommended to have administration-privileges when using the Windows and macOS installers.
    I am not a member of the Apple Developer Program and won't pay for codesign-certificates, therefor installers are unsigned.
    Running a given installer may produce warnings depending on what OS you are using. You may choose to install it anyway, please be aware though that doing so is, in general, not a safe practice. For ServerPackCreator, though, it is unfortunately the only way to run the installer.

    macOS DMG

    MacOS will complain about potential security risks and refuse to install and run ServerPackCreator. To circumvent this, please see the official guides depending on your version of macOS: Ventura, Monterey or newer.

    Windows EXE

    Hit "More information" if the Windows SmartScreen-message pops up. Afterward, a button will appear which will let you run the installer anyway.
