I now go to task manager and stop the process for the launcher, gaining back a percentage of processing, memory, disk use in the process.Įpic, please address the complaints!!! A lot of use have paid a lot of money for the hundreds or even thousands of market place assets, only to be frustrated by a very outdated interface!!! Both stand alone launcher and provided web interface. Very annoying, as it looks like someone has hijacked my account every time I use the launcher. My system is top tier, but I would like to be able to work on my project knowing that I at least have some privacy…who knows what it is monitoring.Īlso, I notice the launcher actually scrolls by itself for the first 30+ seconds while finishing it’s start up. It uses a portion of my CPU, my disk use, my memory and my internet connection. I have monitored it running in the background and definitely see that it is doing it’s own monitoring itself. I don’t like that it has to run in the background after a project is started. I have to agree… The launcher is presently a pain in the a$$. If i buy something then i do it from browser, only game/engine/assets managment functions should remain like download, launch, install, manage…then remove/separate 32bit and 64bit…These are wishful thoughts how “Pro Lite Edition” of launcher should look. I think first start would be remove all browser related functions as javascripts and web content is slow and even distracting. In the past the launcher worked fine, I’m not sure when exactly it became a slideshow, but I think it was after I bought a bunch of items on the Marketplace. After jumping through their hoops, I was directed back to Unreal Engine support because they couldn’t help. I have a Dual Xeon system with over 64 cores, 128GB RAM and a Nvidia Titan GPU… The engine itself runs fine, but the launcher has become a nightmare.Īfter Looking for help on AnswerHub, I learned Launcher support is not provided there, I was directed to “Epic Games Player Support”.
The launcher has become so sluggish that it is almost unusable now which has mostly halted progress for months.
Great timing… I’m having this problem as well.
