Faugus Launcher: Version 2.5.5 released

The Faugus Launcher, a game launcher for Linux to manage Wine and Proton games, has been released in version 2.5.5.

The version brings a dropdown menu for the Add/Edit Game tools, drag and drop for launch arguments and removes the manual Protonfix option. It also fixes a startup crash with older libmanette versions.

Added/Changed

  • The Add/Edit Game tools are now grouped in a dropdown menu, and the Shortcut window was updated to match
  • Removed the Launch Arguments buttons. Arguments can now be dragged between the Presets and Launch Arguments lists and reordered within each list
  • Removed the manual Protonfix option, as Proton applies most fixes automatically. Fixes can be set as launch arguments instead, such as GAMEID=umu-123456. Existing Protonfixes are converted automatically
  • Prevented redundant asset downloads when the title field loses focus without changes
  • Fine-tuned the carousel animation and made minor visual adjustments
  • The mouse cursor is now hidden while using a gamepad
  • python-psutil is now bundled in the AppImage

Fixed

  • Fixed a startup crash with older versions of libmanette when a gamepad is connected

Updated translations Portuguese (Portugal), Spanish, Swedish

The following dependencies are required for the AppImage, as they cannot be bundled with it: pygobject gtk4 libadwaita libmanette
