This is a first test version for the new launcher

First Alpha Test Version

  1. Extract the archive.

  2. Copy GameLauncher.exe into your Freelancer\Exe folder.

    • Do not rename it to freelancer.exe.

SmartScreen Warning

When starting the launcher for the first time, Windows Defender SmartScreen may show a warning. This happens because the application is not code-signed yet.

Click More info → Run anyway to start the launcher.

We plan to submit the application to Microsoft later so this warning should disappear in future versions.

First Startup

On the first launch the launcher will automatically:

  • Download the required WebView runtime (in the background)

  • Store it in the Freelancer\CFLauncher folder

  • Generate hash files needed for file synchronization

This process only happens once. or after new files will be provided.

Estimated time:

  • SSD: usually under a minute

  • HDD: may take several minutes depending on the system

After Setup

Once everything is finished, you can launch:

  • Singleplayer

  • Multiplayer

The launcher UI should be fairly intuitive.

  • Short test of Version 0.9.12-beta x64 for SP (open GL graphic setting) worked perfectly well.

  • Works very well. Love the speed of file updates

  • Works perfectly fine, and I love how much faster it downloads and applies patches before starting Crossfire!
    Haven't encountered any problems yet, but will be sure to come back here if I find something, so far it is a pleasant upgrade (shame that I only found this thread after finishing the campaign once again but struggling in multiplayer because of some abhorrent lag that I haven't figured out yet)

    • Thanks!

      Also if you wish additional features feel free to let me/us know.
