Crossfire Launcher - Beta Version

Quote

Is there any further feedback no matter what? Just curious if people can use the account manager, how is the hashing or game start? Any requests for further features?

There are more than 100 downloads - and little less further feedback 🤔

Sorry, I didn't have a lot of time, but I haven't had any problems from using the launcher so far, except that the account manager is unusable. As for the launch itself, it is noticeably faster than the older launcher and the update is quite fast, only the first time it takes a little more time, but already from the next update it is very fast. I did have a couple of crashes, but I'm not sure if it's the launcher. Ah yes I noticed that after closing the game he froze a couple of times, not every time he needed close to a minute to recover. The shader selection works like the other options from the settings as well as the music on off toggle. I also checked the hashing logs and it works great from what I saw. If you need more feedback or something specific to test, feel free to contact me. As far as ideas are concerned, I like the idea of implementing a translation button in the launcher itself to select the language. I also have a suggestion during the installation, there are several musical backgrounds offered, but there is no overview of them to choose from, so one can only guess. is it possible to listen to a sample from the offered music options from the launcher itself? Otherwise, I completely replaced the old exe launcher (not physically, I just pulled out the shortcut and now I start only with it) and now I only use the new one without any major problems and I can say that I like it more than the old one. Here is logs from last time...CF logs.png

Hi Huor, sorry, i will make a big testing session this evening.

Discussion of the topic.

Somehow I was in wrong topic,

Feature Request: Change Start Menu also within the laucher.

The launcher offers to "view the installer options" here

Mod installer settings preview - SWAT Portal

but you cant change main menu background within the launcher. Only in the first crossfire install.

Finished my testing

Crossfire Launcher v0.9.1 Alpha

- ID Manager

--> lets you save same id more than once via Add Button

--> keys are always 41 characters long. but more or less are allowed.

--> keys always have 4 "-" characters with this pattern: 8-8-8-8-4 characters but this is not checked, also special characters should be disallowed like =)(/&%$§ etc.

--> current installed key could be highlighted.

--> Header: Accounts / MPID > "Accounts / Multiplayer IDs" could be easier to understand

tested: add, dublicate, delete, change, reload, "second" reload button above key,

- Log

--> seems to be working, but how long will be log get? will it be auto capped after some time etc.

- Settings

--> did not find any bug.

tested: changing things, changing back, changing every option at once.

- Main Window:

--> clicking on "statistics" does not open extra window

--> clicking on a news network link will open a "Work in progress" window

--> hovering over the green dot (online players): missing space in front of first character. Looks to close to the side. Maybe Center text.

yeah, I guess some css has to be changed on the new launcher

The new version works faster. I haven't found any errors. I've solved the problem. At some point, the game's settings stopped saving, and they were always set to default after launching the game. Every time I launched the game, I had to reconfigure the sound and display settings, both after crashes and after exiting the game. Now everything works properly. I've tested the single-player mode, and the saves are working again (they also stopped working along with the settings - all the save files were present, but they were not displayed in the game).

Made new clean installation of FL and CF , copy paste the new launcher in CF EXE folder , imported my accounts from FLID file /old FLID changer/ and now when I get in game it ask me to create new account . If I remove all of my accounts it only stays New Player Account /empty one/.

Activate...save...whatever I do /while my acc are imported/ it always offer me a new account....cannot reach my genuine accounts...

Pls help...

Ah...and BTW after the new installation I got updated 7430 files exactly....if not correct pls let me know...

And how can I start the Single player campaign...with Open SP checked or unchecked it always bring me to start as 18 lvl char...no story line mission available
