-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] It will detect mods that are already installed and they'll show up in the list, you'll be able to find servers and launch them but you just won't be able to update them through the app if they're not hosted on vapour. A linux version for servers shouldn't be too hard to crank up. I've got it partially implemented but no one had asked for it yet so it's been on the backburner. Support for new games (e.g. hl1 mods) isn't too hard to add, it's just a matter of filling in the blanks (directory structure of the new game, commands to launch mods, server protocol, etc). If there's interest, I can add hl1 support too.
