hello,
here the thing if you want to use the game without a external server its totally fine;
you only need SQLite (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser/ )
you dont need an external server
you dont need the launcher ( its for external server; to get the client updated with last version of the game so it can match the server ones)
you dont need to configure the uploader ( its only for external server )
you dont need to configure much SQL ( same, only for external server )
if there's an error; you should try to make sure you have the latest version of the engine, and the last version of inesis ( when you open the project in EE, there should be a pop-up saying that you can download the new version )
build the server, the client, run the server ( .exe in the _build_/inesis server ) then run the client, and you should be good to go ( nothing to change in SQLite, inesis should take care of all the db for you )
hope it helps !
