OpenRCT2 Launcher

[ExCrafty]

Does anybody know if the creator of the launcher comes in these forums please ?

Since occasionally the launcher doesn't launch the game, I was hoping to suggest maybe adding an option for it to launch with or without an update.

I find launching straight from the game exe seems to start a bit differently, as if it's not seeing it's most recent successful update.

Maybe a check box or button to check for updates, I have no idea how hard or easy things like that are. As I've said a few times before, I'm not even close to being a "coder".

AFAIK, the launcher is not an official OpenRCT2 project and even pulls the builds from an unofficial site. IntelOrca created a new launcher that should address this issue (I think).

I knew it wasn't an official project, that's why I asked if the creator looks in here at all. I wasn't aware of where the updates were coming from though. Thanks for the additional info none the less.  :)

@Krutonium is the developer, but it looks like he abandoned the project. You can post issues here: https://github.com/Krutonium/OpenRCT2Launcher/issues

The 'new' launcher is developed by @LRFLEW, but looks semi-abandoned as well. Post issues here: https://github.com/LRFLEW/OpenRCT2Launcher/issues

This is the launcher I was referring to: https://github.com/IntelOrca/OpenLauncher/releases

Reading the issues there, it seems to have problems getting the latest build, but it should be playable regardless.
