(Launcher) Windows portable version didn’t store relative paths.
(Launcher) Properly locate A500 kickstart on first startup when it exists.

here is it

Edit: If I select the (database) config and change the CUE file to the ZIP file, the game boots properly

@amigafreak68k Problem was what I suspected. A flaw in FS-UAE Launcher/Arcade - when used with the online database it finds the required CD image file(s) within .zip files, but does not extract the files or otherwise configure it correctly for FS-UAE. Workaround for now is to extract the zip files and rescan (it won't be fixed for FS-UAE 2.4.0).

amigafreak68k · 16 February 2014, 13:33

In this case FS-UAE Launcher shouldn't start the game also if I select the ZIP directly, or not?

FrodeSolheim · 16 February 2014, 18:30

FS-UAE 2.4.0 is officially released

(no changes from RC2)

It is available from http://fs-uae.net/download, and if you are upgrading from 2.2.x, please read the release notes.

Finally, I've been waiting a long time for this release

Nice one Frode

Formula One Grand Prix isn't working for me since the upgrade. It offers a download link but the icon for the game is the joystick one that indicates I have it. Most new games I've just added complain that I don't have all the required files (maybe it's just the games though - I didn't have those with the previous version).

It looks like another great release so far.

Hi, please try this version: http://fs-uae.net/stable/2.4.0u1/

freddy · 12 March 2014, 19:04

Nice

Now FS-uae Launcher is OK

FrodeSolheim · 14 March 2014, 17:26

Great, I'll include the fix in a 2.4.1 maintenance release soon

FrodeSolheim · 22 March 2014, 13:21

A new stable version has been released. Changes in FS-UAE 2.4.1:

(Launcher) Fixed a bug preventing hd_requirements = workbench from working.
(Launcher) Fixed a bug which is also a syntax error with Python < v2.7.
(Launcher) Fixed a potential startup problem when PATH has non-ASCII characters.
(Arcade) Fixed a bug related to non-ASCII characters in joystick names.

Updated translations have also been pulled in from https://crowdin.net/project/fs-uae.

great. how do i upgrade the portable version? simply overwrite all, or is it only a few files that need to be updated (exe files)?

and should i backup ini files?

Yes, just extract the upgrade over the existing portable dir and overwrite all files.

Backups are always a good idea. It shouldn't be required but there's no warranty, so...

Neil79 · 23 March 2014, 20:58

Why does the installer version not ask you were you want to install? It just goes where it wants, perhaps an optional directory would be good

Going to update anyway via portable

Nova · 24 March 2014, 11:12

@ frode: i just found out there is 2 portable packages avaiable for download

fs-uae-suite_2.4.1+portable_windows

fs-uae-suite_2.4.1+portable-update_windows

whats the difference among these?

Well, a few reasons I guess, including that the installer used asks about the directory every time (also when updating). I think the current way is fine, one point of the installer is that it's straightforward and quick to use. The portable version is available for tinkers anyway

Ah, you've looked at the server directory directly... -Well, I've deleted the latter, so the question is now irrelevant

It would be great if the mouse wheel would rotate the carousel. Just a suggestion

Feature Request: I know I've mentioned this before, but can the deframgent maintenance be run on startup of the Launcher? I find that I have to run this manually each time FS-UAE Launcher is launched, otherwise navigating the games list feels sluggish. Thanks.
