The new launcher works with Windows, macOS and Linux. It has been tested with Ubuntu and Kubuntu.
Note: We only officially support Ubuntu, but the launcher has been seen to work on other distros.

Thanks. I know the last one did not so I was checking. I understand the Ubuntu requirement. I am Fedora and it has always been working for me so I am sure it will this time as well.

I love the new launch screen, it’s modern, easy to navigate, and full of helpful features. One question: is it possible to improve the definition of the first “Fantasy Grounds” image? On my dual 2560 × 1440 screens, displayed as a full 5120 × 1440 setup, it looks blurry and the color gradient is not consistent. The same issue happens with the animated scenes: the darker areas show visible color banding. I’ve attached two screenshots to illustrate the problem. Thanks for this much-needed upgrade.

Thanks for the feedback. Changes submitted to resize the logo and reduce the banding.

Thanks, the Fantasy Grounds start image is now perfect. There is still banding in the dark parts of the animated scenes, perhaps even more (not sure about that).Attachment 67729

The new launcher is a big improvement, thank you!
All the movement from the Ads + background was initially a bit overwhelming but it is growing on me.

A few suggestions:
The Ads could do to to pause a little longer on each one and then on the last Ad scroll around in a loop rather than cycle through them all back to the first one.
(all the movement makes my eyes go funny)

The update available button is a large bar across the screen, if we could have a y/n confirmation box it would help stop accidental updates.

After running an update the launcher forgets it's previous size, any chance the previous window size could be restored?

When starting a campaign the load screen scrolling picture (and die) consistently stutters towards the end of the load.
