Lau Setup 1.0.1 makes the installer easier to read: brighter supporting text, larger footer text, and readable disabled buttons and checkboxes on the dark background.
Download LauSetup.exe below and run it against your existing WoW 3.3.5a build 12340 folder. Existing Lau 3.0.4 game files do not need reinstalling just for this UI update.
Validation: all 38 Windows regression groups passed, including 108 fixture install/restore combinations. Initial, ready and downloading UI states were visually inspected; measured text/background palette contrast is at least 8.59:1. The standalone executable, metadata and independent source-bundle build passed. Higher-DPI and OS high-contrast themes are not certified.
Game payloads, downloader and transaction code are unchanged from v1.0.0. The prior 63 game-data cases and full payload-download checks remain the applicable baseline; they were not rerun for a font/color change. VALIDATION.json distinguishes those retained checks from this update's checks.
Windows only for now. Wine is the recommended next target, followed by Lutris. The isolated Wine/Mono probe failed at font initialization, so Linux/macOS installer support is not being claimed. Read the feasibility assessment and required checks.
Requires .NET Framework 4.8. The installer is unsigned. No full client, personal UI or saved settings are bundled.

DBC history since the Andre handoff
The retained multilingual Patch-Y baseline adds Spell.dbc, fifteen visual links per edition, indicator visual/kit/attachment records and localized spell text.
Andre intentionally omitted Spell.dbc because of localization conflicts (six other visual/model DBCs were present). The initial Lau addition exposed the language dependency. Lau and Andre debugged it together, and the multilingual rebuild resolved the text compatibility issue.
Lau identifies the development milestones as 3.0.4: initial addition, 3.0.5: multilingual fix, and 3.0.6–3.0.8: hotfixes with version bumps. Retained published artifacts use overlapping early labels: the archived 3.0.4 baseline already includes the multilingual fix. The audit therefore separates development history from exact archive comparisons.
Individual table/record/field edits, old/new values and baseline evidence · DBC changelog. The historical field audit covers Patch-Y; separate Q/S/map pipelines and experimental builds are not silently attributed to these edits.
