These are the release notes for the 3DX Launcher software. If you’re curious what fixes or improvements are implemented in the latest release, you can find that information here.
ChatLauncher 2.0.0-beta.3
Additions
- Added “Launcher Presets” where you’re able to define specific settings to be applied before the game starts.
- Presets are divided into the base game and the beta version.
- Currently you can set the world builder colors through presets. If more settings are requested they will be added if possible..
- The design of the preset page is still a little work in progress, but it is functional. Future versions will improve it further.
- Added a 3DXChat setting to let you choose the screen resolution.
- Added the new setting “GTAO” to anti-aliasing in the game settings.
- Added the new setting “GTAO Quality” to customize in the game settings.
Improvements
- Downloading games or patches now shows the speed of how fast it’s going on.
- Consolidated and simplified the advanced “…” menu button.
- This now also includes three new buttons to clear the cache, the configuration or all of the game’s data for a complete reset.
- Reworked how the settings work and made them more efficient.
- Reworked the game download logic to be more efficient and reliable.
- Small scale improvements regarding general performance and stability.
- The launcher now saves your desired window size on shutdown and restores it on startup.
- Your storage capacity matters, that’s why we delete all log files older than 7 days ourselves now.
Fixes
- 3DX Server Status now shows the correct icon when the Overall Status is offline.
- 3DXChat’s 3.2 new ‘Chat History’ is now preserved instead of cleared when you clear the cache – sorry for that. It still is being cleared when you uninstall the game.
- The launch button of the beta version will now be shown greyed out again after the install has been cancelled.
- Update notifications of the games work again.
- You can’t uninstall the game now when it’s running – why’d you even do that at all?
- Numerous smaller bug fixes in the unsupported sections of the launcher.
ChatLauncher 2.0.0-beta.2
Additions
- Official 3DXChat BETA is now supported! Act quickly, as availability duration is uncertain.
Improvements

- Modified the appearance of the main menu footer, allowing games to be started and stopped while others are installing.
- Additionally, error messages are now displayed when installations fail.
- Revamped the right sidebar to properly support multiple games as originally intended.
- Slightly adjusted the presentation of launcher updates when available.
- The progress bar is now also visible in the taskbar.
- Made numerous code improvements to enhance reliability and stability.
- Reworked almost all game-management logic to better support multiple games.
