Supported versions:
Application uses HttpClient to access moddb & mediafire links in order to dowload archived versions of MBII
These are by default dowloaded into your GameData folder, then extracted into their folder and the .zip file is removed.
On launch, a .bat file gets created that takes care of renaming folders in order to launch the game under game path "MBII".
After exiting the game, folder will be renamed back and your MBII folder will again become what it was before (R20)
Your documents folder will contain a folder called "MBII Version Switcher" where your gamedata path and serverlist from last launch of the application will be stored.

added a playerlist panel rather than displaying it below the serverlist. this will hopefully solve any future issues were the serverlist growing.
added direct connect to the servers through the panel.
fixed dropping .zip files as an alternative for version installation

added "drop .zip" button to main menu, as an alternative for those experiencing 403. You will be automatically redirected to such menu if you won't be successful with your automatic download. Drop .zip expects a .zip with the same name as the archived .zips from moddb or files from mediafire that I've uploaded. If you fail a download, you will be redirected to the appropriate browser tab.
It will automatically rename and extract the content, assuring everything will still work no matter what.
Zip files must be placed in GameData folder. (else you will get a success message, but the extracted folder will be in the same location as the .zip file)
new logic on the first launch of version switcher, restart will happen that will copy the version switcher to your gamedata folder, remove the old .exe and safely create shortcut, to ensure the app is always searchable
new logic app will now require to be launched as administrator to ensure access to folders, renames, deleting files, etc.
fixed 1.9.3.1 version not working
fixed 1.10.0.1 version not working
fixed special characters in playernames in the playerlist
fixed configs not applying to featured versions
reimagined install/play button to also contain the highlighting as other buttons

added b17
added b16
added refresh button for servers
added loading servers... screen to avoid potential issues in the future due to serverlist being broken again
added no valid gamedata path screen to avoid user from using the app if they haven't selected the gamedata path
improved logic of applying custom config through quick settings tab
improved logic of the .bat files (now the user should be able to have file explorer open and still use the version switcher)
improved logic for shortcut creation
fixed not being able to rename gamedata path after using version switcher
fixed serverlist
fixed configs not applying for most versions
renamed "improve 3rd person camera" to "Fix Camera and Target damp" (sets these values to 1, default since ~1.6+)

replaced 1.4.8 download with mediafire instead of moddb

By no means is this supposed to be cool looking flawless application. Its main priority is to ensure easy installation of accessible MBII versions, with some side extra features. Modifications weren't made by me and the credits go to their respective owners, being:
Schizopack - Joel, Vioxini
Penekepack, Penekemations - Penekowski
Kvinto's Animation Pack - Kvinto
NoobGuided Pack - Noob, The Unguided
Fetus Crosshair - BobbaFetus
J| Advanced ACM Counter - J clan / Pelmenu
Notable mention: Kvinto - for providing access to more MBII versions
GAME ISN'T LAUNCHING? TURN OFF YOUR FILE EXPLORER AND ANY OPENED PHOTOS. I AM NOT SURE WHY IS THIS HAPPENING, BUT IT DOES FIX IT.
Incase any issues appear, please contact leonss. on discord
