[Update] AruaROSE v873
Today, we are releasing an updated launcher. Players won`t notice much difference, but we now have more configuration options for it that allows us to update files much easier.We are not releasing AruaROSE v873 with the launcher update in case there are any problems for players during this update process, but it is part of the overall AruaROSE v873 update.
A new client installer is available from today. We would highly suggest that you grab this new installer and remove your old one. Many unused files have been removed from the installer and it is therefore a much cleaner client.
Any players who have any problems downloading this update should first download the new client installer and see if that rectifies their problem.
