## 🚀 OriLauncher 1.4.0 is live – grab it while it’s hot! Hey, OriLauncher fam! After weeks of **bug-squashing**, **coffee-chugging**, and more dark-mode testing than we care to admit, we’ve just pressed the big red *“ship-it”* button on **OriLauncher v1.4.0**. This is a **major update**, so clear a couple minutes (and maybe some disk space) before you jump in—there’s a lot to love. --- ## What’s new? 1. **Fresh fits for your client** We **nearly doubled** the theme rack. Whether you’re into pastel pixels, neon nightmares, or *“I just want it to match my wallpaper,”* there’s a new coat of paint waiting 😂. 2. **Parlez-vous… launcher?** OriLauncher now speaks **Turkish**, **French**, and **Spanish** out of the box. Switch languages **on the fly**—no restart required. *(If we butchered a translation, roast us kindly on Discord and we’ll patch it. 😆)* 3. **Mod life, upgraded** **Fabric** and **Forge** are officially **first-class citizens**. - Drag-and-drop your mod folders - Pick the loader from a drop-down - Launch. **No hacks, no scripts, no XML sorcery.** **TODO**: We're even thinking of adding **auto-detect** common modpack structures so you can skip the *“which JSON do I edit?”* rabbit hole. 4. **Profiles that don’t fight each other** Separate **Java args**, **resolutions**, **everything**. Flip between vanilla 1.20, and that experimental Fabric snapshot without swapping folders like it’s 2015. 5. **Tiny but tasty tweaks** - News and Updates are now accessible via the Launcher. - New **“kill/stop Minecraft” panic button** for when your GPU starts impersonating a jet engine. 6. **Under-the-hood magic** - **22 % faster** cold-start on a dusty i5 - **Smarter update checker** - A handful of **crashes exiled to the void** --- ## Community corner Quick shout-out to the **beta squad** who sent **1 300+ crash logs** in three weeks—you animals! Special love to **@Olly** for all the **super cute** themes that already have dominated the overall look and feel of the OriLauncher. --- ## FAQ **Q:** Do I need to wipe my old instances? **A:** Nope. **Backwards-compatible** back to v1.0.0 Just install and your worlds will be waiting. **Q:** OptiFine? **A:** Still works the same way, make sure to checkout our upcoming blog on how to add OptiFine to OriLauncher **FUTURE TODOS:** We’ll add a one-click installer when OptiFine’s license lets us. **Q:** When will Quilt get the red-carpet treatment? **A:** *Soon™*. It’s next on the roadmap, but we wanted to nail Forge/Fabric first. --- ## Ready to update? Hit the **download page**, snag the build for your OS, and you’ll be back to **block-placing** (or **speed-running**) in minutes. Already using OriLauncher? The **auto-updater** should pop the moment you open it—just say **“yes”** and watch the progress bar do its thing or you can still head over to the download page and install it manually, works fine :sparkles:. That’s it for now. Go **test those themes**, try a **Fabric**, and if anything feels wonky, [**ping us on Discord**](https://discord.gg/2sPdCcuwm5). We read **everything** —yes, even the **3 a.m. bug reports** written in all-caps. See you in-game 😜, **The OriLauncher crew** [**Download v1.4.0 →**](https://orilauncher.cosmicfi.dev/download)
