Run new Launcher on linux

[govn]

Hi there.
After release new launcher even if i ran game it says me i must download new launcher in server list. Can you help me run game via new launcher?
I'm using Pop OS 22.04.

Here's the source code with instructions on compiling

That's not the actual new launcher (just compare the screenshot with what's in the Totem Arts Launcher and look at the dates in the repo to confirm). There are a few launchers floating about but the source of the one that's currently used is not in a public github repo as far as I know.

I personally was not able to launch the new launcher with linux ubuntu, yet.

As i understand it, the new launcher was coded in electron what is cross platform but they build it for windows only at the moment.

As long as they do not update the main game, you can still play it by following below instructions to fix the serverlist of the game:

cfr discord #faq:

Open up this file \UDKGame\Config\UDKRenegadeX.ini go to the bottom and change this

[RenX_Game.Rx_ServerListQueryHandler]
MasterServerURL=https://serverlist.ren-x.com/servers.jsp

to this

[RenX_Game.Rx_ServerListQueryHandler]
MasterServerURL=https://serverlist-rx.totemarts.services/servers.jsp

 

When the main game will be updated, i will be in trouble.

grtz,

It is, the one that's being used right now is a modification of the launcher in the repo.

 

Edit: Some code modifcation is required to make it connect to the new server listing:

 

In configuration.rs change:

.set("ServerListUrl", "https://serverlist.ren-x.com/servers.jsp")

to:

.set("ServerListUrl", "https://serverlist-rx.totemarts.services/servers.jsp")

You probably need to change the VersionUrl but I don't know what it needs to be changed too.

Very big mega thanks for you. Work perfectly. Install old launcher and download game via lutris. Then i use portproton to launch old renegade x launcher and set up nickname. After it i open udk.exe with portproton and add "-nomovies".
