A Guide on making RS2 Mod foldered for steam

i installed using this guide.
so why dont i get the launcher?

I don't play with steam so i don't know why you wouldn't have a launcher (the launcher .exe is in your main directory in the folder marked "launcher")

Did You follow these instructions,

You shouldn't have to do any of that. The new 2.5 launcher works just fine with steam (I play with a steam copy exclusively and didn't have to do any workaround.) All the instructions you should need are in the mod release/download thread.
