0.5.1 is now the official version.
* Added AdvLoader support (just install AdvLoader too, Chaoslauncher automatically loads the AdvLoader-Plugins from the Pluginsdirectory)
* Inofficial ICCup support
* Better errormessages
* Can run with restricted rights(non admin), but not all plugins work then. It is still recommended to give the launcher adminrights.
* On the settings-tab there is a diagnose button which helps with some of the common problems
* Included new plugins in the package (ReplaySlotmaker by qet, CPU-Savior by R1CH and the updated APMAlert by Tec27), removed PP1.14 as it never worked anyways

Known Issues:
* APMAlert and AdvBNet are incompatible resulting in a crash when starting a game
* AdvBNet and ColorCorrector do not work together with W-Mode(no crash)

Can somebody notify the korean sites which mirror it to offer the latest version? If all koreans use the autoupdate I might get traffic problems and autoupdate does not add the new plugins.

@Some Admin
Can you change the version-number in the topic from 0.4 to 0.5?
@Heggie
Post your Chaoslauncher.log
@SliCkOne
Probably your problem is related to insufficient rights. This is often the case if using Vista without giving the launcher adminprivilegues. Or a firewall/antivirus blocks something.
@Vivi57
The AdvLoaderplugins have to be in the Starcraft\Plugins folder.

aww new version comes out right before TL Attack... I think lots of people will be dropping

Anyways, hopefully it'll work, I'll test it right now and hope it works

cool updates though, thanks for the work in keeping chaoslauncher working and up to date!

LatencyChanger has not changed, so it is not incompatible.

Looking further into it, all the plugins work fine if I'm in fullscreen mode, but is there any way to make them work in window mode?

EDIT: my bad for not reading it properly, ignore this.

ADVLauncher plugins show up twice, kind of annoying. Is there a fix for this?

Don't copy the advlauncher plugins to the directory of chaoslauncher. And not using SC-Directory as launcher directory. The launcher looks it its own directory and all its subdirectories for plugins of all kinds and in the starcraft\plugins directory for AdvLoader plugins.
I'll fix it with the next version.
btw did you fix your problem with AdvLoader?

Just tried this for the first time today and autoreplay and other stuff works great, but play noise on join doesn't do anything, even when config is checked and sc+chaoslauncher restarted. Anyone else have this problem? How do I fix?

Does the alert.wav exist in the launcher directory? And post your Chaosplugin.log.

The standard altert.wav and JoinAlert.wav exist in the launcher directory, here is the log: http://golfscript.com/temp/Chaosplugin.log

Join alert has been included in the iCCup Launcher since they implemented LAN Latency, hasn't it?

I got a problem updating the new apm alert thing in chaos launcher

It will ask me to update apm alert from 0.6 to 0.7 and i click "Ja" (even though my version is english, im guessing this means "Yes" in another language"

Then it tells me to restart the launcher for it to take effect, i click yes again.

The launcher then closes and i see a "Temp" folder downloaded to my desktop containing Temp0.upd and Updateinfo.dat files. Now chaos launcher wont run again until i have removed the files from the Temp folder or delete the folder all together.

Help plz?
