    I want send BIG THX for this new launcher and things included into it. Nice work on it so far and I look forward to see this one fully working with all options in 2.0!


    Included:

    • News to last info on moddb (Can be included back button?)
    • Stories
    • Combat Guide (talked with Cryzis on Skype and SWAT_OP-R8R: , utrack: ... sending from him THX for this! and commented "man this is awesome")
    • Latest event schedule (Is this linked with portal calendar?)
    • Sector Maps (last time I searched for them and it took me a some time to find them on portal, now in launcher they fit nicely)
    • Jobs board: ... looks as nice feature for Mercenaries when finished. Will this show also active bounties?
    • links to portal, server page, rules and more.
    • Switchable graphics settings: No more needed to "reinstall CF when did "wrong" selection during activation ... :thumbsup:
    • SP classic or open SP ... I'm sure ppl who can't or do not want try MP will see this feature as very useful :)
    • And atm last thing: running CF in Windowed mode ... as I know more ppl asked for this ... :thumbsup: ... tested it on my laptop and I :herz: this :)

    events are linked with the swat calendar so EMs can directly put events there using the portal


    job board is more like a offer/request system for stuff that is not directly definied by the server features (like escorts or other protection contracts)
    an active bounty list is not intended as that would require to parse through tons of logs everytime somebody wants to check that info OR to update this info only once a day which could lead to false results
    since bounties are shown on the server i personally dont see reason for putting the same info into the launcher

    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.

    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

    As always, OP & his team did a fine job on the launcher update! Even after months away from SWAT & CF, the launcher did its auto-update thing, and appears to be working perfectly; now if I could just figure out which of the shader settings I should be using, I could see the game better :P
