- Windows Minecraft players managing modded setups
- Worth noticing
- The page says Rust builds are checked against library size and SHA-256, with signature and checksum verification before launch.
Field notes
The launcher separates game setups into instances, with per-instance versions, loaders, mods, memory, and Java settings; it lists Fabric, Quilt, Forge, and NeoForge support. Its Rust mode uses a separate native-mod library rather than Java mods, and the page says downloads are checked against library size and SHA-256. The site also says the client does not send a usage heartbeat to Horizon.
