Welcome to the RiftLauncher wiki

RiftLauncher is an independent launcher for Vintage Story, built by the Stratum team. It is a fork of VS Launcher by XurxoMF, whose original project is archived; this fork carries the codebase forward.

This wiki covers everything you need to install, use and contribute to RiftLauncher. If you find something wrong or missing, open an issue on the GitHub issue tracker or fix it yourself: this wiki is editable by anyone with write access to the repository, and pull requests to the docs under docs/ in the main repository are welcome too.
