Motor Town Dedicated Server Vortex Extension

Motor Town Dedicated Server Vortex Extension

Vortex support for the Motor Town: Behind The Wheel DEDICATED SERVER.

Install it in Vortex: Extensions tab, drag this zip onto the drop area, then
restart Vortex. The dedicated server appears as its own managed game.

Routes each kind of mod where it actually belongs:
  paks              MotorTown\Content\Paks
  UE4SS Lua mods    MotorTown\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\Mods
  UE4SS loader      MotorTown\Binaries\Win64
  Blueprint mods    MotorTown\Content\Paks\LogicMods

Also registers RunDedicatedServer.bat as a tool, so you can start the server
from Vortex.

This is for the dedicated server, app 2223650. It is not the extension for the
game client.

Changelog for 1.1.0

1.1.0

FIXED - Vortex can find the server.
  The extension asked Steam for the game client's app ID, so discovery failed
  on a machine with only the dedicated server installed. It asks for the
  server's own app now.

FIXED - UE4SS Lua mods went where UE4SS does not look.
  They deployed under the Paks folder. They now go to
  Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\Mods, and a Lua mod packaged with its own wrapper
  folder has that wrapper stripped rather than double-nested.

FIXED - UE4SS itself installs correctly.
  A UE4SS release ships a Lua entry point next to its proxy DLL, so it matched
  the Lua mod type and landed in the wrong place. The loader type is tested
  first now, and keeps the ue4ss tree intact under Binaries\Win64.

NEW - Blueprint (LogicMods) mod type.
  Offered in the mod type dropdown rather than guessed. A Blueprint pak and a
  content pak are the same kind of file, and guessing wrong deploys a mod that
  silently does nothing.

NEW - Run Dedicated Server tool.
  RunDedicatedServer.bat is registered, so the server starts from Vortex.

FIXED - Deployment worked only if UE4SS was already installed.
  Vortex probes every mod type's destination to decide which deployment
  methods it can use, and a missing folder failed that probe for the whole
  game rather than just that type. All four destinations are created at setup.
