civ14-launcher

The is a windows client for Civilization 14that includes an auto-updater to fetch the latest code from the git repository automatically.

No installs required - it's standalone. Just extract and run.

Includes version checking. Supports both locally hosted servers and the official civ13.com server.

Running

1. Run civ14.exe. If this is the first time you are running the game, it will automatically download the game files. This should take 5 minutes or so, depending on your internet connection. In the future the auto-updater will only take a few seconds.

2. On the main screen, you will see two textboxes, one for Username and one for the Server Address. Choose an username and put the address of the server you want to join (civ13.com for the official server, localhost to join a locally hosted server).
