v2.6

💫 What's New

— The environment variable editor now allows entering variables and values in the usual format (ENV=val); the value and input focus will automatically move to the corresponding line. Added support for the Ctrl + S shortcut.

— The launcher now first checks for updates and the latest Proton version before loading the interface (multithreading removed). This may slightly slow down startup, but significantly improves stability. At the same time, launching games via shortcuts will be much faster — the launcher's latest version check will not run in these cases, and the latest GE-Proton version will only be checked if GE-Proton Latest is selected for the game.

— Added a splash screen on launch

— All Internet interactions have been moved to the HttpClient class, and timeouts have been explicitly set to prevent launcher freezes.

— Improved retrieval of the latest Proton version to avoid situations like GE-Proton 10-26, when builds appeared significantly later than the release, causing the launcher to mistakenly display the "Close" button on a non-running game (#28)

— Improved compatibility with Photon Launcher. The patch for its operation on Linux is now also applied for Phasmophobia (#24)

— Fixed a bug where, if the error "No installed Protons found" occurred, the "Play" button remained in the "Wait" state until the launcher was restarted.

— Fixed the inability to launch a game if more than one argument was specified in the "Arguments before executable" field (#29)

— Fixed the passing of "Arguments after executable" when Steam Runtime is enabled (an old bug).

— Fixed constant re-downloading of GE-Proton if GE-Proton Latest is selected for the game (#32, #33)

— Fixed a bug in the environment variable editor that prevented the save button from appearing
