Hogwarts Legacy

Multi-language support

The THGL app now auto-detects your system language on first launch. You can also manually change the language anytime in Dashboard Settings. This feature is not available in the Overwolf apps. Note, that the map language support varies per game.

Marker Labels

Everyone can now display text labels above map markers for easier identification. This is especially helpful for colorblind users or when navigating crowded maps.

How it works

• Click the settings icon next to any filter in the sidebar
• Set the Label option to control when labels appear:
• Off - No label (default)
• Always - Label always visible
• In Range - Label only shows when within alert range
• Hotkey - Label shows while holding the Toggle Labels hotkey

High CPU

Fixed high CPU usage and lag spikes during gameplay.

High Contrast Markers

You can now customize the marker outline in Settings: choose color, opacity, and thickness.

Username and Avatar

You can now change your username and avatar for node comments at th.gl/support-me/account. This lays the groundwork for more account features - cloud backup and profile sync are next.

Close Behavior

You can now configure whether closing the THGL Companion App minimizes to tray or exits completely.

Elevated Auto Start

Optimized how the app launches with admin privileges on Windows startup. This should fix remaining UAC prompt issues.

Audio Alerts for Everyone!

Audio alerts are no longer limited to preview access - all users can now enable proximity-based sound notifications!

If you haven't tried it yet, here's a quick recap:

• Enable Audio Alerts in Settings
• Click the settings icon next to any filter in the sidebar
• Toggle Audio Alert on for the items you want to track
• When you get close to a tracked spawn, you'll hear a sound!

Thank you to everyone who provided feedback during the preview phase!
