Well, Qv2ray is a separated app compared with v2ray, and, unfortunately, we currently have no plan to bundle it inside the AppImage, even Qv2ray relies on it.

Why not bundle it inside the AppImage? The idea of AppImage is that you don't need anything else but one file.

We let the user download themself to prevent abuse of Qv2ray by letting them download and extract the core file, instead of making it a ready-to-use single AppImage.
It's only a GUI instead of a toolset to bypass the firewall, which may against the local law.

We tried not to include these files in order to keep our asses.
Closing now.

Thanks, I understand.
