Version 1.1.7 A few fixes for bugs I've seen occur to a few people Increase restart timeout after launcher update (to 8s) to avoid some possible updating issues. Remove "is freeso running" check when clicking Play - tasklist.exe seems to be 2 intense 4 some people (causing it to hang). This was...

Versions 1.1.1 - 1.1.6 Made FSO and TSO installation more reliable. Launcher can now auto-recover a lost FreeSO executable if the in-game updater fails. (Renaming freeso.exe.old, if present).

Version 1.1.0 Developer mode by right-clicking the Play button (as per @Alessandro Needs A Server's request). Yet another Cloudflare hack, this time to retrieve the feed correctly. Added Italian interaction translations. Fixed the dialog on failed FreeSO zip download. Cleaned up code.

Version 1.0.4 Now using @RHY3756547's cabinet reader library for TSO installations, which has been a blessing for the launcher (finally got rid of CabLib :) ) A big thank you! Improved FreeSO installation workflow. Make sure you update if you want a smooth TSO installation :D

Version 1.0.3 If you have been having errors (Invalid Signature) while trying to install FreeSO for the last few hours, try now (after updating). Cloudflare was intercepting the FreeSO zip download. Added cleanup process when a FreeSO download fails due to the file being invalid or corrupted.

Sure, I'll include a developer mode in 1.1.0.

We've reached 100+ launcher installations in the first 24 hours! Thank you everyone for trying it out. ;)

Version 1.0.2 Should be good for this week. Squashed another update check bug. Updated Spanish game translation. Updated Italian game translation. Added Italian launcher translation.

Version 1.0.1 released! You should receive a notification right away. In this version: Fixed an issue with update check timeouts (hopefully, report back @mrpenguinb). Italian game translation has been updated. Added a few missing language translation strings. Added support for custom RSS feed...

Okay, I'll make sure that doesn't happen in future updates. It's only a visual bug, really. The notification not going away. For now you can restart the launcher and it'll be good. Much obliged!

Thank you for the feedback! The repair options are on their way. Not particularly for the integrated installer because it already has fallbacks and its ways to recover from a failed installation. But for example to repair a failed update from the game client. The checking for updates looping...

Beta launcher is being released in the next 2 days. Game translations To include your language as a language option in the launcher for users you need to send me the uitext files. If you have translated objects, send those too. You can send me a private message on the forum with the package. I...

When doing a complete installation, the installer page will show this backdrop with the global installation progress. (Will probably add game tips, and in game shots). You can still see each individual installation progress going to the downloads page. If the installation fails, you will get...

Internet access indicator added. You will not be able to start the installation of FSO or TSO without an active internet connection to download the files. Won't be able to trigger a launcher update either. All other features that do not require an internet connection will work as expected.

Hi, Don't run FreeSO through the launcher anymore until an update has been released. You can run it directly from the FreeSO.exe executable in the game's folder.

Update 1.5.5 (5 Jan) Launcher has been updated to support the global server client if it's installed (C:/Program Files/Maxis/FreeSO) (no need to reinstall the launcher). All game update functions will be disabled temporarily (the game has a patcher already built in, so no need for it for now)...

Update 1.5.4 (1 Jan) Uncaught exceptions (this) when not obtaining the latest version correctly (by suddenly losing internet connection) are now handled properly.
