Important

Emerald Legacy Launcher is currently in Alpha. Expect bugs, frequent updates, and features that are still being polished as we work toward a stable release.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Emerald Legacy Launcher started as a solo project to create a better way to play Legacy Console Edition. Over time, other developers joined the effort, bringing expertise from various preservation projects into one place.

Our Philosophy: For too long, the LCE scene has been fragmented across different, often resource-heavy launchers. Emerald was built to stop this fragmentation and centralize everything into a single, definitive hub. By avoiding bloated frameworks and utilizing a modern Rust/Tauri stack, we deliver a high-performance, cross-platform experience that uses only ~15MB of RAM, leaving all your PC's resources dedicated to the game itself.

CORE FEATURES

*Proudly developed by a passionate team from the LCE community.*

EASY SETUP An automated installation process for TU19 and TU24, with more versions coming in future updates.	RUST BACKEND A memory-safe backend that handles all file operations and game execution with minimal overhead.
EASY CONFIGURATION An integrated settings menu to change your username and manage game parameters directly through the launcher.	TAURI FRONTEND A lightweight frontend that handles the user interface and configuration management via webview.
