Just so you know, the launcher will be updated to net6.0 sometime in the 'near' future, but it'll be a self contained deployment so shouldn't need any other framework present on the target machine. As it's still using WPF it'll still be a Windows application of course, but down the line I am planning to investigate using avalonia as a UI framework, which would allow it to run on other platforms natively (although we'd still need to write registry stuff to handle game config, so not sure if it'll be possible to actually use it in a native fashion since obviously the registry isn't native to other platforms)

The turret scripts I developed (which were the basis that moonsense expanded into my new bots) have the ability to prioritize targets by health, type, distance, value (on the basis that more expensive = more dangerous) etc... Not sure if IA uses these though, and if it does, what settings it's using.

Okay then. In other news, I recently saw a stream of MMORPG Tycoon 2 and that looks pretty fun to play around with 😜

This was a one off fix for a specific user. If you're using Windows 7 and getting this error check this; https://w3dhub.com/forum/topic/423659-running-the-launcher-on-windows-7-enabling-tls12/

If you are using Windows 7 you may have problems connecting to our backend services using the Launcher. This is because, by default, Windows 7 does not support TLS 1.2, which is a stronger encryption protocol that many modern websites use, ours included. Updating to a modern operating system that is still supported by Microsoft is the best option, however if for some reason you are unable or unwilling to do so, you can forcibly enable TLS 1.2 support in Windows 7 via the registry by setting the following options; [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Client] "DisabledByDefault"=dword:00000000 If you are unsure how to do this, I suggest following this guide. Note that you must have all recommended Windows Updates installed or this may not work. You can read more about this topic on Microsoft's website here and here

If you're running Windows 7 make sure to install all available Windows updates

Uploading the errors.log file from documents/w3d hub/launcher will show the reasons for the error

Can you upload errors.txt from documents/w3d hub/launcher

Make sure to install the TT scripts for Renegade. https://www.tiberiantechnologies.org/downloads

Sounds like it's not connecting to the game server successfully, what server are you trying to join?

Which server are you trying to join? The launcher itself doesn't check the version of TT you have installed, so it must be something on the server you are joining

That's not usual - if some of the binaries changed but some were unchanged it'll take the older ones from a previous patch and combine them with the subset of new ones in the newer patch. It mainly happens when installing from scratch or installing multiple updates at once
