A CLI alternative Roblox "bootstrapper" which can download the latest, previous, or custom version hash of Roblox.

Before you begin, ensure you have Node.js installed. This will also install npm (Node Package Manager), which is required to install the dependencies for rbxlivecli.

1. Download the Source Code

   • Head over to the releases page and download the latest source code.

2. Install Dependencies

   • Open a terminal in the downloaded source code directory and run:

     npm install

3. Run the Application

   • Start the application by running:

     npm start

Yes, just select the "2. Download the last LIVE version (downgrade)" option in the menu. This will download the previous LIVE version of Roblox.

No, there is no protocol support for launching games directly from the website. However, you can manually launch games by opening the RobloxPlayerBeta.exe in the downloaded version folder. Please note that rbxlivecli is not intended to replace the Roblox launcher or Bloxstrap.

Similar to how rdd.latte.to or Bloxstrap handles downloading Roblox versions, rbxlivecli retrieves the latest version of Roblox's rbxPkgManifest for the version being downloaded. It then downloads all necessary files from setup.rbxcdn.com, extracts them into the specified destination, and creates an AppSettings.xml file.

Yes, just select the "3. Download a custom version hash" option, you can then input what version you would like to download.

Special thanks to Bloxstrap for providing inspiration and resources that helped in the development of rbxlivecli. (Specifically the folder mappings for extraction)
