Starlaunch - WIP launcher replacement [Now released on Windows, Mac and Linux]

AWESOME!!!!! But I am not sure if I understand the details.txt They go in the ship blueprints folder? As in with the DATA HEADS and stuff?

Also I noticed that the default theme goes great with the Crusade HUD I have

Yes

Yes. all a sment is is a .zip file that has been renamed to .sment. all starmade does when exporting is zip the directory, not checking its contents. so if you add a details.txt to the directory, then export, that file gets a zipped aswell. then when starlaunch extracts the sment it will look for a details.txt. if found, it displays the contents in a window

Okey dokey

Quick update. This is going to be long now. I am just cleaning things up, and adding the ability for skinning. then all I have to do is make a quick installer, fix the .REG files , and we are good. The UI will probably look rather different from that mockup. I got a little bit bored :P

I am so much at the edge of my seat now I don't even realize there is a backrest.

We are working on it XD everytime we get close to finishing, we discover something that is not quite done

Take your time, the more refined it is the easier you can move onto the added features you can currently only dream about

 

[therimmer96]

Here is the latest version it is fully operational... sorta. not long before release. I need to move some things over as I recently worked out an easier way to do updating than I was doing, finalise button sizes and locations, wait for crusade to make them pretty, installer, release.

 

[Reilly Reese]

Almost done!!!! CANT WAIT!

Nothing, I have been redecorating my house. And most changes will be in the code from now rather than the UI, so there won't be many pictures, if any. Sorry

Can you make it so you can launch many "connection setups" at once?
Like for when i need to relog or something and i dont have to start the launcher, etc.
Or is it already possible?

You aren't secretly working on the official new launcher, are you?

Erm, I will have an option to have it close launcher or not when you press launch.

Lol, I wish. Calbiri mentioned it in passing once, but the initial release will only be on windows, so they can't use this. Yet

Any news been a while

Spent the last couple of days doing college work. I have a fair bit to catch up on, and I am going on holiday over the weekend, so nothing will get done then. I am working on it a bit here and there, but real life has to take priority, unfortunately.

I honestly like the screen in the OP better. It looks a lot more futuristic and tech like than this one. Will we have the option to chose between the two?
