for people encountering this issue not in relation to the CNC online launcher you can try bibbers or medstars fixed launcher for the ultimate collection
https://bibber.eu/downloads/cnc-ultimate-collection-launchers/
https://github.com/Medstar117/CNC-Ultimate-Collection-Fixed-Launchers
both do effectively the same however medstars is more up to date as we actively work on those
