the plan is: if installing with that tool works fine, i try to make something like a webinterface for it, in general i want to create the .ini by a script. Modify by hand is ugly, could easy lead to errors and costs to much time.

if md5 isn't set, it isn't checked...

webinterface seems like good idea.
I also wouldnt want to enter the mirrors by hand.
Would it work giving a link on ie springfiles and it gets all mirrors from there?

And doesnt the hash change with every new engine version?
So all files have to be uploaded somewhere: Would it be possible to download something like files.zip instead of single files? Because having to update/check mirrors for lots of files seems like a bit of work.
I assume it is the file's hash and NOT the unitsync checksum which is something totally different (it takes the whole dependency tree).

md5 is the md5 checksum of the file, this is independant of spring.
