C++ and Qt 5
The UGX Launcher is an UGC Manager software written in C++ with Qt 5. It offers a rich set of features.
Custom Theme
The application is custom designed to reflect the corporate design of UGX-Mods. It offers also a Theme Manager for custom user generated themes.
UGX Play
The front & backend for the UGX Launcher. UGX Play is a new website to offer players and creators a place to share, discuss and play user generated content.
Authentication
The UGX Launcher does authenticate users with their UGX Forum account.
In-App Feedback & Issue Reporting
Users can easily report feedback / issues without leaving the application.
Custom Grouping
Users can group UGC to their desire.
Custom Mods Folder
Users can choose another folder for their mods.
A link to the original folder will be created
This helps the user to save space on their main drive.
(great for SSD)

The user has full control over order, speed and can pause / resume individual downloads easily.
Advanced Logger / Debugger
For developers and for QA / Testing,
the Debugger & Logger is very helpful.
