This is the branch-specific readme; check readme.txt for Ares's readme.

Intro

This is the Ares release package repository. The purpose of this repository is to provide current, release-ready versions of all auxiliary files of an Ares distribution package, to allow both quick manual as well as automatic composition of such release packages.

Contents

This repository should, at all times, contain the latest public versions of the following items:

• readme.txt
• ares.mix
• a version of Ares's license text
• a complete version of the manual

This list is not intended to limit what can be in this repository, it should be taken as a minimum.

What should not be in this repository is:

• Ares.dll
• Ares.dll.inj
• Ares.pdb
• Syringe.exe
• Syringe's license

These are files that are managed elsewhere.

How to create an Ares Standalone Package

Thanks to this repository, creating a custom Ares package is rather simple:

1. Clone this repository.
2. Insert your Ares.dll and Ares.dll.inj.
3. Insert Syringe.exe and Syringe's license.
4. Remove the .git folder and the README file (this file, not readme.txt).
5. Put the folder contents into an archive.

...and that's it! That's all there is to it. There are really only three parts to combine: This repository, the Ares binary/injection files, and Syringe.

Custom releases

Be advised: If you create an Ares Standalone Package with a customized version of Ares, you must make explicit and obvious that the package you're distributing is not an official Ares release by the Ares Developers. Falsely implying your custom release is official violates the license and thus terminates your right to distribute your custom version.
