HeroicGamesLauncher 1.11.0 Beta - Layout Redesign + Other UI/UX Improvements
After more than one month since the Alpha and a lot of work on a complete redesign of Heroic, we release now the Beta for version 1.11.0.
Probably the latest version before the next stable that will be released before 2022.
There are still some visual changes that we need to do like improving the Settings page.
The Install modal was improved but still misses some other options like: choose Wine version and prefix, Add shortcuts after installing, etc.
So probably those are the things that will be in place before the stable.
We are also testing using a webview to login instead of using the SID so this is also something that we want to finish before on the upcoming weeks.What's Changed
