Few New Additions + Settings
In addition to the new changes featured in the beta release published recently, I've implemented user-configurable settings. Users can edit the settings.config file and disable an option by changing a value from true
to false
The setup.sh has been completely discarded so you can start the program by running the executable directly. The new --language
parameter has also been introduced to play games in your preferred language (requires Heroic v2.4.0 Beta+).
Lastly, users will be required to place the HeroicBashLauncher folder in ~/Games/Heroic
to avoid permission issues. There's also a brief how-to-guide.txt that acts as a light manual.
