# [EVOCATI ONLY RSI Launcher 2.19.0 RC2 Release Notes](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/AVOCADO/forum/31515/thread/rsi-launcher-2-19-0-testing-notes) Hello everyone, Today, we are releasing the RSI Launcher 2.19.0-RC2 In this version, we’ve updated the display of the download process to better indicate the status of the download phases and how many remain. We’ve also added a shader compiling stage, so that this task can be done before entering the game. ## New features: What’s new in this release: - New downloads panel: the header popover now shows the ongoing installation (version/channel, step-by-step progress, pause/resume/cancel, network, disk, CPU and memory usage), a reorderable “Up Next” queue (drag and keyboard) and the list of finished downloads. The game page also shows a compact step row and progress bar under the game button. - Shader compilation (optional step): at the end of an install or update, the game can now compile its shader cache. Progress is shown in the downloads panel and on the game page. You can launch the game at any time (the compilation is stopped first), or choose “Skip shader compilation”: the install completes and the game finishes its shaders on the next launch. - The Launcher now refuses to start a game that is already running (or being launched) and displays a “Game Is Already Running” dialog naming the running process. A double click now shows this dialog directly. - Updated data patcher for data generations: smoother progress reporting, a verification pass that repeats until the files are clean, more detailed error information, and a dedicated dialog when the disk fills up during a download. - Guide System: updated card colors. ## Fixed Issues: - Downloads panel only redraws the values that change, reducing UI load during installs. - Fixed the Launcher muting and minimizing before showing the “already running” message on a double click launch. ---

# SOMETHING STIRS IN THE BLACK Frozen pilots lurching back to life. Crews driven mad in the depths of space. Mysterious hull malfunctions leaving ships drifting in the dark. Just rumors? Perhaps. Who can say with no survivors to tell the tale? This October, a shiver runs through the 'verse. The crew of the Vara vanished without a trace. Perhaps you’ll have better luck. Wear black and green to honor the lost, share cautionary tales, and gather for reverence, revelry, and the reassurance of company. Whatever’s out there, best not face it alone. ## MARK OF A MONSTER ### Don’t Faint… Paint! True horror never dies. This sinister season, confront your fears and pay tribute to the creatures that still haunt us with the monstrous Drake Vulture, vampiric Aegis Eclipse, and lycanthropic Kruger Wolf paints, alongside a few returning classics. ## BONE-THRILLING ### Arena Commander The dead have risen and they’re dying to take you back with them. A skeletal scourge invades Arena Commander once more, ready to blast the living into the afterlife. Survive two rounds to claim your Vanduul mask. Preferably while you still have a face to wear it. ## GOUGE TO GLORY ### Pumpkins Beware! One, two, three prizes. Mwah ha ha. A devilish Day of the Vara ship with terrifying paint and a full mask bundle awaits the winner of this year’s pumpkin decorating contest. Plus, The Hill Horror helmet for all entries. But be warned, keep your designs inspired by the classics: werewolves, vampires, and Frankenstein’s monster.
