IMPROVEMENTS

Preparation for Game Launcher Cloud 📷Default resolution fix. Not always the best resolution was selected. 📷Play button was disabled incorrectly when the variable PlayIfServerIsOffline is false. This variable was deleted. Not really used... so... Deleted -> Solved 📷Fixed an error with Automatic Updates. It should work now, but maybe need to check it more. Enterprise Edition 📷Above changes also applied. 📷By default, now all available games are displayed in the main screen. Accesibility improvement. 📷Fixed crash error when we stop the debug in Visual Studio.

2.2.5 - Windows Defender Fix

IMPROVEMENTS 📷Fixed False Positives on certain antivirus Adding more information to the assembly info is important to be trusted.

2.2.4 - IMPORTANT UPDATE

GameLauncherCore has been updated to version 1.0.3 Changes 📷Now the launcher uses NET 7.0 The Launcher now uses NET 7.0, which is the latest version. This will improve the launcher's performance and compatibility, such as:

• Reduced RAM usage

• Improved CPU processing

• More compatibility with different Windows versions

Moreover, the size of GameLauncher.exe is now only 167 MB (previously was 400 MB, which is a 58.25% decrease!) All features are still compatible, including embedded videos. Fixes 📷Obsolete files deletion fix To prevent accidental file deletion by the users, the Launcher will NOT start in special folders or root directories. (Documents, Music, Downloads, C:/Program Files/, C:/ drive, D:/ drive, and many more).Explanation: If you try to open the Launcher directly in the root folder of your Documents, the Launcher will display an error message and close immediately. This error message will be logged in the new error log feature. 📷Temp downloading files location Now, the launcher will create temporary files while downloading in the current location where it is being executed. (Previously, it was always on C:/ drive). This will resolve the issues of insufficient space on C:/ while the Launcher is located on another drive. 📷Log errors feature If any error occurs, and the launcher closes unexpectedly, the Launcher will log the error to a new file in the root folder where the Launcher is located. This error log file will be named gamelauncher_error_log.txt.
