A new version of the launcher - v0.1.29 - will be available shortly. This version adds the following features:

• Downloading of Unity assets now takes place in our launcher, rather than in the game client. Due to the multithreaded nature of our downloader, this should significantly increase the speed with which new asset files are delivered to you. The client path remains as a fallback.

• Two new options in the 'Settings Cog'. One is the option to preload assets, on by default (supports the previously mentioned feature.) The other, 'Download connections', supports decreasing the number of attempted connections to support slow connections and older PC's.

If you're having issues with the launcher downloading files, please try decreasing this number. We suggest trying '4' instead of '16'. Once changed, click the run button next to 'Validate game files' just above it to restart the download process.
