    *** All users should rename their fade sounds located on RocketLauncher\Media\Fade\ folders to follow the naming convention: Loading start*.mp3 and Loading complete*.mp3 for sounds to be played on normal fade screens. 7z extracting*.mp3 and 7z complete*.mp3 for sounds to be played on fade extraction screens. '*' represents any string defined by the user.

    This release gives the ability for users to write custom code that can be launched at certain points in     any module (only ones rewritten to support classes from 1/23/2016 and later)
    Open the updated Lib\UserFunctions (Example).ahk for additional info. In a future update, I plan to copy the PCLauncher settings to all systems. No ETA on this.

    Also in this release, all class-based modules now support the updated global/system/rom settings method. This means that settings are now read in this priority order: Rom -> System -> Global. So if a setting is not found in the Rom ini, it looks for it in the System ini, still not found, will look in the Global ini. No longer will RL look for all settings in a single ini if the file exists. Again this is ONLY for the class-based modules.

      Depends on your settings. You may not have to do anything if its working fine for you already. We added support for additional set of sounds to differentiate extraction vs loading.

      * Pause.ahk updated to v1.2.3
      - Fixed jpg supported images bug




      Brolly, the index is broken, if you get a chance, can you push live the fixed one if I don't get to it before you?

      Getting errors on updating tonight! Getting alot of ini hash check failed. So I did the latest update this morning before going to work and went just fine but when I got home from work noticed 64 new updates but when I went to update it randomly will come up with a ini hash check failed on the different module updates and just fail to download.

      Haven't updated rlauncher in a while as I'm busy with other things (life kids etc).
      I still like to read about where this program is going and what new features are around the corner.

      Just wanted to say a big thank you for all your hard work. !!

      Still can't load Pinball FX2 without it continually asking for SteamLaunch, need EncryptPasswords
      Works fine on my current setup 1.0.0.7 but every update since is not working.
      Am I missing something ??

      Thanks

      Have you tried running EncryptPasswords again - just to set it again?

      Hi, Yes i just tried that and still get error, but I dont want to use Steam at all.
      Is there a way to bypass it looking for Steam.
      I have set it up per module info to not want to use Steam and just boot into the table.
      Thats what my current version does.
      Also Pinball arcade doesn't work either, is it a pinball thing ?

      This is not the thread to ask for help with problems. If you have a problem with a module, please create your own thread if one does not exist already that addressed it. FYI though, PFX launches fine here and it does not use the steam version.

      hehe *insert blush smiley here* Ok. Got it pal!

      Now when I re-launched RL I also got the update!
      A bit strange as I restarted it yesterday without any update message. Seemed like it needed a hard reset to make it make it work Now on RL 1.1.10

      Thanks

      There's nothing strange about it, there was a new update pushed live a couple of hours ago.
