Hey there! I have been working on this tool today, would like suggestions, basically, it's meant to try to be similar to the GMod downloader, instead of downloading mods yourself, the server already has given the downloads and you download on join:
Ignore the music, I had pandora open.

The way server owners will be able to add their servers will be through a website I am still finishing up.
This tool currently works fully, meaning if you want me to add your server, PM me the server name, ip, forge version and a mod list, I will add it manually for now until I get the site working.
Any mods that it already has downloaded will be re-used for different servers so you don't need to re download them, same goes for forge.
Leave some suggestions of what you think, if people PM me with servers they want me to add I will release the tool in alpha, for now I am just adjusting some minor things and working on the web side.
This is actually really cool.
Where does the tool download the mod files and forge from? Is it like FastDL where it grabs it from a server that has everything or from the original mod links.

I'm gonna add it so you can include your FastDL, aswell as my FastDL will include a bunch of stock mods, currently to add mods you just need to provide the mod name + download link like so
[code]
twilightforest_1.1.2.jar > http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/38679977/twilightforest-1.7.2-2.1.1.jar
[/code]
it's good to use the original name you get when you download it so if you join another server it uses the same mod, mods are saved in a mod folder where ever you put the program.
To Do:
Add a FastDL
Finish site so people can add their own servers
Add some stock mods to my FastDL
Also for forge, it's super simple, the download link for each forge is the EXACT same for every version, except for the version number, so I just swap the numbers for whatever the server is using.
